SO GOOD! https://scontent-amt2-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/83dbad46cf86265dc964876aa8adcccb/5B692F9F/t51.2885-15/e35/31232926_171688280205821_1810896608724779008_n.jpg2018-04-26

1999445401999445402018-04-26Sometimes I say to a painting,
“Not now,
Can’t you see I am sleeping! I just did this show!”
But the painting usually doesn’t care
And quips,
“Too bad, Nilou,
You’re not getting lazy-
You promised God you would help out
And he is waiting for you with his brush.” And I say,
“But I don’t have enough strength
To wring out another drop of paint.”
And the painting respond
by climbing onto my easel:
Lifting its skirt and winks. ~poem by Nilou

205452924320545292432018-04-26Hey pessimistic lovers! Tessonja here, just popping my face into Instagram to say hi. I know I don’t post here very often these days, but the shop is very much still active on Etsy...even though it may be due for some fresh designs! .
Wanna know what I’ve been up to? Well, first of all...I published a book! The past year and a half I’ve decided to go full in finishing a long time in the making novel. It paid off! My first novel Shadows of Lela is published! It’s a YA fantasy, and book two of the trilogy is coming out in July. I’m stoked! .
I still love my shop and will get back to creating new designs, but I’ve learned a valuable lesson about priorities when it comes to making dreams come true: you’ve gotta put the effort into what you value most. For me, that’s family and writing. If you’d like to keep up with my writing life, feel free to follow my personal account tessonja
