I've been working on 'Peculiar Woods' since 2020 with the amazing help of @kortizzle , but now it's official. The first book in the series will be published in 2023 by @andrewsmcmeel. This graphic novel will have some Wawawiwa elements, but it's a big world filled with adventures and a really sweet and funny story. I've always been a fan of storytelling, TV shows, movies and comics overall. Specially those stories that become an experience for the entire family to enjoy.
