My blog intro

Hi there! I'm Julia but I also go by Jules. I am starting this blog as a place in cyberspace to share and express my passions for writing and illustrating children's books, character design, book covers designing, creating and developing interactive digital app books and surface pattern designs. 

I will be cataloging my progress and journey of obtaining each of my goals as I work on different projects.

I am also interested in networking with like-minded individuals who are involved in the publishing industry for children's books.

 If you are interested to network with me, please do contact me. I'm always looking to share the latest news and updates of those in the industry.

 Thank you for visiting my blog and hope you enjoy all the upcoming posts!

App Book: The Mighty League, Vol. 1

Being an advocate for autism is something I take quite seriously as I am a parent of a child who is on the autism spectrum and I understand the struggles that they face regularly on a day to day basis.

It is based on Jonathan Murphy's perspective, who grew up with Aspergers. I feel this is a great story that children with autism can...
