Lilliputian Living is (Almost) Finished!- November 15th (Patreon)

Hey Artnerds!We. Are. Finished. With. Lilliputian. Living!!!!Those of you who follow me on Insta/Threads/Bsky/Tiktok/Youtube know we went into overtime this year. This is the last Lilliputian Living I plan on doing, and I had way too many ideas for just one month. Even going over (48 entries!), I still have festivals and milestones that I wasn't able to share, but in order to meet our preorder goal, I had to call it quits eventually. Joseph has been burning the midnight oil to prepare the book, and the Kindle version is now available. We'll soon have the print version ready as well. We're still on track to release the print version of the book on November 18th, but you can preorder it now to make sure you don't miss it!While I loved working on Lilliputian Living (enough to do EIGHT YEARS of it), I'm relieved to be finished- both for this year, and in general.

I may buy things and opt not to talk about them, so please keep that in mind! I also plan on pulling some of my favorites from years past.In general, Joseph and I love supporting handmade and small businesses and love to go to various festivals across South East Louisiana, but I really want to champion small artists and small arts businesses next year. I really think supporting small makers and creators is key to creating community, and I feel community (online and off) is the only way the arts can survive.Updating My Online ShopI'm also working hard to get my own online shop updated for the holidays, and would love it if yall would check it out if you haven't!
