Hey all! I’ve been working hard on the third book recently, and guess what? I finished all the thumbnails for the book!
For those of you who don’t know, thumbnails are rough sketches of each page I plan to draw for the book. Keeping it rough like this helps me find the best composition, pacing and flow, without wasting too much time trying to make a drawing perfect.
The total pages come out to 233! This will be the biggest Mal and Chad book I have ever drawn.
And what’s that outside the window? That’s Japan. I’m now living in Japan! Please check out my blog documenting the trip!

Hey everyone, check out this amazing costume that 7 year old Mal and Chad fan Kurt Parker made!
Kurt made this costume for I Love to Read Week, a week long event put on by Yellowquill School in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada. Thanks Kurt! This is awesome! And thanks to Kurt’s mom for helping him put together the outfit, and sending me the picture.
I haven’t been online much lately, but I have been busy! I moved to Japan– and also I was in two interviews! One with Katie Davis, and another with Jerzy Drozd. Please check them out!

What would you put in these blank speech bubbles?
We are currently running a contest to see who can think up the best lines for Mal and Chad to be saying! Click here for more details!
What really excites me about the contest is the prizes. The winner will get the first and second Mal and Chad books signed by me, as well as a drawing by me of them as a Mal and Chad cartoon character!
