Will I illustrate your book?
Maybe! I’ve illustrated two books so far in 2026. My schedule fills up quickly. A whole book takes four to five months, depending on how complex it is and how far along you are. Here’s my rate sheet.
Will I publish your book?
Maybe! I have an imprint called PV&J Media. It’s my own independent press that I set up for the P&V Are Kittens series. But if you have a children’s book you’d like help publishing, I have a hybrid publishing model and would be glad to talk to you about whether we’re a fit. Here’s my rate sheet.
Will I speak at your event?
Maybe! I am doing one to two events a week currently, and speak on entrepreneurship, creativity, art, writing, and technology. If you’re in Southern California and I have a slot free, I’d be happy to consider your event or program.
Will I visit your school?
Probably! P&V and the Ice Pop Bath is a clean, wholesome, fun read-aloud that is a fabulous excuse to eat ice pops.
Will I blurb your book?
Maybe! If it feels aligned with my brand. Regardless, I hope your book is a smashing success!
Will I draw you as a cat?
Quite possibly! Is it free? Sometimes. If we’re working on a project together or if I love you very much, chances are very high that you will be turned into a cat. If I don’t know you, I could be bribed with the purchase of a book from my website (this one, yes) or a small fee.
