@AmyKimBooks If you ever head up to north Texas to sign some books, Amy, let me know! I can recommend some great bookstores. :)

Why hello! I'll be teaching a graphic novel class at the @DFWCON in Oct! Yay! Can't wait to dig deep into some interesting art/lit concepts! Basic premise, though, is words + art = fun!

A *mostly accurate* illustrated account of my weekend at the @DFWCON!

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

I'll also be on a few panels, and I can't wait to enjoy the rest of the convention as well. I'm reading Dave Eggers' The Eyes and the Impossible with my youngest kid right now. We are both enthralled. So good. https://t.co/a0boQKDFyY

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

I've been quiet on socials lately (working hard on my graphic novel!) But I'm delighted to say I'll be at @DFWCON! I'll be teaching a class about the illustration process, how we artists are hired & how to make amazing books with us! :)

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

@JulieKeat @AlmaFullerton So glad you enjoyed it! :)

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

If any of my internet friends has an invite for *mumble* shmu-shky shmocial to share with me, I'd be grateful! 💙

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

The Nimona movie gets five stars from my family. 4/5 of us had read the graphic novel (some of us many times) so we were excited to see it!!! Highly recommend it.

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

@mikemaihack True. That could mean anything.

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

I mean, what are graphic novels really? They seem to have a book-like shape, but the sad truth is, we may never know.

[DC Canada Education Publishing @DCCED]

Are graphic novels considered books? Are they worth reading?

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

@depleti Thanks, Sarah. That sounds perfect!

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

I would love some cozy, not intense Switch game recommendations. I've enjoyed playing through Spiritfarer and Ooblets recently. Maybe something along those lines? I always appreciate a game with pretty art too.

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

When my kids were small, there was a time when it seemed like everyone I knew was working on glamorous films & amazing books, while I was cleaning highchairs & changing diapers x 1000. I unfollowed many people for a while & it really helped my mental health. It's ok to step back.

[Sarah Mensinga @sarahmensinga]

@PaintKatt Ugh, that would be dark. I hope not.
