Description
"I've written my children's book. Now what!?" First, celebrate yourself! Translating your bright ideas into the written word is a great accomplishment! Now, it's time to transform your words into a published book. Not just any book, but a treasure that children and families will love and grow with! And How? Clarity, connection, consistency, and a sincere trust in your creative ability! Many writers with captivating stories often struggle to get their work published due to a lack of clarity throughout the publishing process. They may lack confidence in choosing the right professionals and tools to work with and may even have doubts about the success of their children's book... Some get to publishing day and have no idea how to connect with families who will read or buy their book, so they give up, and their stories collect dust, either in their minds or on the mantle. The Creative Composition Guide to Self-publishing and Marketing Children's Books is a practical and expansive 3-in-1 book, journal, and evergreen reference guide that, through reflection and direct action, supports new and aspiring authors throughout their publishing and marketing journey.
From my experience working behind the scenes as the contributing illustrator of 5 published books, attending and speaking at self-publishing conferences, plus supporting and learning from award-winning best-selling authors and illustrators in both traditional and self-publishing. With this guide, future authors will learn the essentials to take their book from rough draft to publication day and beyond by:
1. Researching and revising with your specific audience in mind
2. Establishing your author identity and brand 3. Connecting with your book buddies
4. Acquiring your dream team, editor, illustrator, and designer
