Announcement!

If you haven't already, please "like" my page facebook.com/SkipperBayCreative. From here on out, I'll be making book, writing and illustration updates on that page, and this one will become more dormant.

This way interested parties will be able to easily access everything I have to offer in one place. My attention will not be split in multiple directions, and this will reduce repetition of posts for news that fits in both categories. I'll be consolidating two other endeavors as well, so watch that page for updates and for more offerings at etsy.com/shop/SkipperBay!

And while I'm at it, I'll just throw this out there FYI: I'm also a REALTOR in the south Denver Metro area, so if you know anyone buying or selling a home, I'd love to help them. That page is facebook.com/ColoradoLivingRE and will stay separate. ... See more

More little peeks at the ocean book illustrations! Slowly but surely coming along.

Free books by fabulous author Taryn Skipper ;). While I was out of town a sudden rain hit and all but three of my inventory are too damaged to sell ???. It would hurt my little heart too much to throw them out, so let me know if you want any. If you live out of town I'll send them for just the cost of shipping.

They are a little warped, some just very slightly and some a little more but very usable, and great for kids who are hard on books anyway.

I also have a damaged Chinese /English bear book not pictured ... See more

Getting back to the illustrations for the ocean book!

Another sneak peak at the ocean book!

Here's the spread with the sea glass.

Practice sea glass painting practice for a children's book I am illustrating.

Morning (all day) sickness delayed my start, and it will take a few months to compete but I'm excited about it! After this I'll start on the squirrel book! My novel is still in the query trenches while my next novel is itching to be written! ... See more

Just a little holiday writing tip. 🙂

Nothing quells my Christmas cheer as quickly as a stray apostrophe. Every year they assault me. Usually it’s in the middle of an otherwise quaint momen ...
