Today is February 2nd. You know what that means! VALENTINE'S DAY! I'm going to put up signs in my house that say things like: Give Me Chocolate (I might forget to put them up, though.)
Anyway, do you want to hear the truth about how the idea of my book started? It all started one dark and stormy night...(As dark as it can be with streetlights outside, and as stormy as it is on a clear night.) I was sitting at my desk, drawing some impressive sketches...(As impressive as any misporportioned, hideous drawing can be.[I've improved since then.]) Then-the idea hit me like a sledgehammer(Actually I looked down at my sky-blue long underwear)And thought to myself: "These pajamas look like a outfit from a far-off planet!"(Please note that I put my thoughts into "quotes.") I started drawing pictures of people wearing outfits of sky-blue underwear. Eventually, as I often do, I got distracted by something. (I forget exactly what, but I think it was my bladder.) When I came back, I noticed that they needed some different colors. I started drawing people in orange, too. when I took a 2-second break to stretch, I thought to myself:"Maybe they could be good people, (Not 'guys', though. 'Guys' is too masculine.) and bad people!" That was all I needed. A complicated plot line began unraveling inside of my head, even as I went to bed. There it saturated my dreams, and i woke up the next morning, got out of bed, ran down the stairs, turned on the computer, and started typing. The rest is history.

A blog capturing my amazingly brilliant thoughts... Sort of.
