Days Off/On

One of the coolest things about being an author/illustrator is when I get to go into schools and do presentations. I like to do individual class visits so in any given day, I see about 100 wiggly kids. This week, I had three such engagements so I saw a lot of kids. I can't bring Baby J with me when I go on these school visits so we arranged for my wife's mother to come and babysit for a few days.

Even though I went into a bunch of classrooms and hung out with hundreds of loud children, I kind of consider my time away from Baby J a bit of a vacation, a few days off.

It's strange when work is your vacation.

  1. You are lucky that you love both of your current "jobs" so much!

  2. I consider myself to be very lucky. I just wish my "jobs" paid more money. They say all you need is love but I'm pretty sure the mortgage company prefers to be paid with checks.
