Debbie Ridpath Ohi (Work-Only)
This is my work-only acct with updates about JUST my books, art, writing. Not all kidlit. My alternative to an author/illus newsletter (broadcast). 🇨🇦
For my main feed w/ ALL my nerdy interests, replies: @DebbieOhi.com

- Hi! This is my work-only broadcast feed about what I'm working on RIGHT NOW. Experimenting with using this Bluesky instead of a regular email newsletter. If you're looking for my *main* EVERYTHING acct where I post #BlueSkyTips etc, see @debbieohi.com. Special thanks to those who follow both!
- Reposted by Debbie Ridpath Ohi (Work-Only)My Simon & Schuster Children's editor just responded to my recent post vowing to send him something by the end of June. ❤️ NOW I REALLY HAVE TO DO IT. #Accountability #KidLit
- Reposted by Debbie Ridpath Ohi (Work-Only)Gradually moving into WRITING mode, as I wait for feedback on final art for a picture book. Current project: novel for young people. Spooky elements, Japanese yokai, *heavily* revamped from previous. Starting every morning with writing. A bit rusty (so much of past decade has been art) cont'd
- While I wait for feedback on final art for I'M BUSY (there will be at least one more round of art, but hopefully just minor tweaks), I'm ramping up prep for my shift into novel writing! Super excited about this.
- Woohoo! Handed in final art for I'M BUSY, the newest in the I'M... picture books written by @michaelianblack.bsky.social and illustrated by me. Cover not yet public. There will likely be a few more tweaks, but the bulk of the art is done. 🎨🥳 #KidLit
- Working on final art for I'M BUSY. Cover finished/approved, but not public yet.
- Hi! This is my work-only feed where I not only post JUST news & updates about what I'm working on, but where I also post comics, art, & art expts that are NOT necessarily kidlit-focused. If you're looking for my main EVERYTHING acct where I post #BlueSkyTips etc, see @debbieohi.com.
- Haven't posted a work update in a while! Here's what I'm mainly working on these days: - Tax docs prep (ugh). Bad experience with a freelance bookkeeper last yr convinced me I *finally* need to learn to do my own bookkeeping. Big learning curve for me. - Final art for I'M BUSY for S&S.
- Another Procreate animation I did several yrs ago, sent to a young friend of who was pursuing sound engineering as a career. #Animation #Procreate
- Playing around with adding sound effects to an animation I created on my iPad (Procreate). I still haven't had time to learn Procreate Dreams yet. #Animation #Procreate #CreepyCute #DarkerArt

- Radicchio smile. #FoundObjectArt I only learned recently I've been mispronouncing "radicchio" incorrectly in my head all my life.
- Punctuation nerd rejection. #DebbieOhiComics
- One reason I created this separate account is so I could post pieces like this one without having people ask me if I'm feeling ok. 💙 Going to use #DarkerArt tag as a way of categorizing this kind of art when I share, to make it easier for me (or others) to find/browse later.

- One of the reasons I created this "work-only" Bluesky acct is so I could collect some of the art and comics that may not be as mainstream or have as much kidlit appeal, but of which I am personally fond. 😁 #DebbieOhiComics
- A #CreativeCollab with @rebeccaupjohn.bsky.social. Thanks to Rebecca for letting me vandalize her photo 8 months ago! #FoundObjectArt

- On tap today: Working on cover art for I'M BUSY, a new picture book written by Michael Ian Black and illustrated by me (with @simonkids.bsky.social). It's the newest in the I'M series of #KidLit books. I am sooooo identifying with I'M BUSY right now. 😜
