Some links for inspiration:
Picture book author Rick Walton's blog, where he's providing a brainstorming activity every day of the Marathon, along with some ideas on developing the ideas once you have them.
Illustrator, author and marathoner Nathan Hale’s blog, featuring the cover from each day's story, as well as a comic featuring his adventures in publishing.
Marathoner and author Terry Golson’s live hen cam! Terry says, “My one published PB features hens from my own backyard flock. I've since added goats and more hens. They are my muses, so I have to spend time outside with them in order to write! (Nice excuse, isn't it?) Marathoners are welcome to watch my animals to get ideas - or just to take a break." There are three live-streaming webcams on the animals.
As well as links to get to know February's marathoners better:
