My mother and a younger version of me playing at the park. Not long ago, I read a tweet about how important it is to thank the people in our lives who support us. On Twitter, I give a lot of shout-outs to followers but someone I don’t mention enough is my mother. Since my mother is my biggest supporter (and my most honest beta reader, for better or worse😏) and since a special day for the both of us is just around the corner, it seems appropriate to make my mother the subject of this blog post. It might still seem out of place to discuss my mother on my blog, but she is, in fact, a huge part of my art and writing journey. She always gives me her honest opinion of my work and offers some of the best advice on how to tweak my work to make it stronger. My mother taught me almost everything I know—even by letting me know that I have the power teach myself and providing me the materials I needed to do so. While I might have been born with many talents, they may never have developed
