Once upon a time in Texas there was a little girl who would dream about what she wanted to be when she grew up. As she got older she started to write down her goals and one by one most of them came to fruition. All but one has come true...how will the story end? I believe our lives are a story and they need to be shared. The little girl is now a woman. Will she dare to write and illustrate the stories in her heart?
Hi I am Toni Rocha Rico. I am blessed to have so many wonderful stories to tell. I am blessed to have had so many family members that have touch my heart and mind. It is my dream to share the characters that I have created that are inspired by those dearest to me.
Last year after completing my master's degree (dream accomplished) I found myself questioning, "What now?" I realized that I have been so busy with family, work and education that I had neglected my first dream which was to be an artist and writer. I have a few drawings of characters for a children's picture book and a comic book along with stories and origins but they have been collecting dust for years I am disappointed to say.
I have decided that this is the year to start my new chapter in life and that chapter involves research, writing and drawing. From the research I have done already I have seen that there are wonderful supportive groups in this field and I look forward to getting to know you and your story.
So any advice for this little girl at heart who is dreaming of one day seeing her work published?
Happy New Year and Best Wishes to All,
Toni
