October 8th, 2022 marks Dinosaur Valley State Park's golden anniversary. To celebrate, I visited Glen Rose and put up flyers for Cecelia and the Living Fossils.

I'm taking Dinosaur Valley's 50th as a holiday to catch up on writing. Right now, the chapter you read on Sunday is the chapter I write during the week. It's a pretty intense schedule with zero room for error. I plan to use this short break to rebuild some buffer so I have time to run each chapter by my critique partners and make sure I'm putting out quality work. I want to give you the very best story I can.

Cecelia and Pine will be back next Sunday.

In the meantime, I thought it might be fun to share some behind-the-scenes character work with you guys since a lot of critical plot information is finally out. I do a lot of my planning in sketchbooks, so here are some early drawings I made when I was developing the story.

If you like behind-the-scenes art and stories, go to katiepotterauthor.com and subscribe to the email list. I'm going to release more of this as bonus content, but it won't appear on the website or Wattpad, so you gotta opt in!

Thanks for reading. I'll see you next week with a brand new chapter.

Happy Sunday!
