      <description>&lt;![CDATA[Rose the Rainbow Mouse&#xA;&#xA;I&#39;m so excited to share with all of you a new project I&#39;m working on called Rose the Rainbow Mouse!&#xA;!--more--&#xA;I&#39;ve been thinking lately about what I want to do in life.  I have few responsibilities, and that&#39;s given me a lot of time to think.  I was asking myself what I want.&#xA;&#xA;I want to help make a world where everyone can feel accepted.  Where everyone can belong.  And while writing poetry can help with that, it&#39;s not enough.&#xA;&#xA;So I&#39;ve combined my love of poetry, story telling, and talking to bring you a new series called Rose the Rainbow Mouse.  Every story is a long poem about a mouse named Rose, growing up and learning.  She&#39;s the only mouse with rainbow fur, so she struggles to fit in.  A long the way she&#39;ll make new friends and learn new lessons about life.&#xA;&#xA;A picture of a rainbow mouse&#xA;&#xA;In addition to that, I&#39;ve decided to make videos for each story, completely animated by me!  Anyone that&#39;s talked to me in person in the past few weeks has seen tons of these pictures, because I can&#39;t stop showing them off.  I&#39;ve learned a lot about computer drawing tools, and I&#39;m working on recording and putting them all together.&#xA;&#xA;Here&#39;s a very rough draft of the first story, with artwork and everything!&#xA;&#xA;https://makertube.net/w/iVT52HewzAhLztesrCxMpj&#xA;&#xA;The plan is to release one of these at the end of every month.  The art is so cute, and I&#39;m sure I can make merchandise from it.  Hopefully it can help me get more contributors to my Ko-Fi page and start doing more things to help make a living off this.&#xA;&#xA;I cannot overstate how excited I am about this.  It feels like everything fell into place when this came to me, and I&#39;ve been working at it ever since.  I&#39;ve learned three different programs: one for the art, one for recording, and one for video creation.&#xA;&#xA;Thank you so much for listening, and please, take care of yourself, friend.&#xA;&#xA;A rainbow mouse sitting and smiling&#xA;&#xA;RoseTheRainbowMouse]]&gt;</description>
