My Milk Toof: Our First Year

It's hard to believe it's been a year since this blog began! Looking back, I can see how much the blog has evolved and become something I never could've imagined. Your comments and emails have been so inspiring, and I am extremely lucky to have such wonderful and dedicated readers!

And now for some news:

This could not have been timed better, but after exactly a year I am thrilled to announce I will be publishing a book with Chronicle Books to be released Spring 2011! They produce some of the best designed books out there, and I trust that the project is in great hands. The book will be a collection of everyone's favorite stories, along with some brand new adventures. As the book gets closer to release, I'll fill you in on more details. Lately I've been busy shooting the new book content, which explains why updates the past couple months have been lagging. But once the book is done, I promise I'll update more regularly.

So there it is. Thank you all for helping to make this such an amazing first year- hoping for many more to come!

Cheers,

Inhae

Homegrown

"Look at planty grow!"

"We should see if we're growing too."

"Hmm... we haven't made much progress.

But I have an idea."

"Dig, dig, dig- we're gonna be super big..."

"You first, Lardee."

"Here's some growth enhancer."

"Okay, don't move."

"I'm closing you up now."

"ickle's turn."

"Now, we wait."

"We should've brought a magazine."

Up and Away

"Oooooohhhh."

"Let's do this, Lardee!"

"One...two...... THREE!"

Thank You!

2009 has been a great year for me, and I owe so much to you- my wonderful readers! Just a year ago today I was newly unemployed, frustrated, and lost as to what my future had in store for me. But things can change so quickly! To be given the opportunity to do what I love and get such overwhelming support for it is not something I take for granted.

That's why i'm happy to announce that I have donated a percentage of My Milk Toof merchandise sales to Save the Children on behalf of all the fans. The organization's campaign Rewrite the Future supports "the lives of children in conflict-affected areas through the power of education". For more information click on the link, and if you can contribute more it would be a great way to start off the year.

Once again, thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. And if you're stuck creatively or professionally, I hope my journey can be of some encouragement to not give up. I can't wait to show you what adventures ickle and Lardee have next, and I wish you all the best in the new year!

Cheers,

Inhae
