Dinosaur dilemma

Today I'm working on my dinosaur book, refining a chapter where a favorite character is doomed to become fodder.  It's always rough when a fav has to go.  But if I wanted to write about a happy world where somehow dinosaurs and people got along smashingly, I'd write Barney ....

I've also been sitting with my daughter as she finishes up what we've come to call the "Project from Hell."  She has to 'make a movie.'  In German.  Who are these ninth grade teachers that assign such crazy stuff?  Not only is my type A child unwilling to go the easy route (sock puppets would have done the job quite rightly), but like every 'project' she's ever tackled since birth, it has to be a production.  Long story short, she needs cheerleading, so I've had a lot of time to draw as well as write today.  Hence, I posted a pic of my latest dino sketch on Instagram.
