Very Very helpful! Thank you so much!

What about dedications and summarys?

Fascinating story about the treasure chest. I know Kiri from Chicken Scratch Books. Well done.

Congratulations, Abbi, this is incredibly exciting!

Very enjoyable and sweet, Brook. 😊

So wonderful to see Shannon. This interview has inspired me to keep writing and submitting. Thanks for sharing.

Hey, loved the vibe🙌! I'm not really sure if it is the best time to ask but, I was wondering if I could help you create a better distribution by working on post-production like better storytelling through Edits, Keywords, think catchy intros and outros, or even some engaging short clips! Would love to chat if you're interested and keep creating good content:)

Hello, I am a graphic designer making a children book illustration or more. please let me know whenever you want amazing children book illustration.

It was great to hear your story and author journey. Perserverance is good advice and gets you to where you want to be. Thank you!

Wow! Thank you for your speedy reply! I did look at her guidelines page. It says she only represents illustrators at this time. But it also says she is looking for illustrators and author-illustrators. So I wasn’t quite sure what that meant.

Does Jessica work with author-illustrators as well? Or solely illustrators?

Where can you buy Priscilla's perfect tea party?

Where is the museum in Ohio? Would love to go!

So helpful-thank you both! I love the idea of your Dilly books and their teachings-I will buy one since I am still involved with educating kids who struggle. I am dyslexic and I get it. Some of us simply need differnt tools to learn. Marketing has been my biggest hurdle - it just feels awkward, intimidating, and deflating - so your honest sharing your successful navigating after struggling as you learn new skills is inspiring to me to not give up. I also like your ideas of time management. We need to give ourselves permission 'to be' sometimes and respect our inner selves.

Great interview! I really like Holly's list of must-dos. I wrote post-it notes for my computer: WRITE EVERY DAY and REACH OUT TO OTHER AUTHORS EVERY DAY. I have led a critique group at our library for the last 12 years and recently decided to close it. The writers in the group have rebelled and want the group to continue with me at the helm. Holly has encouraged me to continue now too. I really do love meeting with new authors. I learn something new from them every time we meet. I just published my children's book (NO MORE FEAR) and I think I'll put an ad on it and see where that takes me. Thanks again.

Thank you!

How can l reach and hire Bobbie Hinman to be a comprehensive editor for my children 's story

So when do you put your illustrations in? I am trying to upload my story with illustrations to KDP.

Great interview!

❤❤❤

Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed! Couldn't be more clear 😊

All comments and insights are appreciated from people in the know. Thanks

Hi , do I send my children's book with pictures or without pictures to a publisher

Thanks. That is where I am stuck right now. I wrote a story but it is above young children but not a middle school type book. Good comments. Donna Valiga

How wonderful! Thank-you for sharing!

Thanks so much, that was very helpful!

Hiring us illustrators at the right time with the right intention for your books also makes our jobs sooo much easier! I get attached to manuscripts and I read it over and over and over again to find new meaning, discover character quirks, and determine how I want to best execute each page, and it's nearly impossible to illustrate a story when it's a draft. Definitely make sure the manuscript is as polished as it can be before hiring an illustrator. Doing that makes the whole illustration process much smoother, and you'll have a happy illustrator as a result. 😉

Thanks for making this video. I learnt alot about a field I knew little about.

Thank you getting to the point. Going to format now

Enjoyed this interview. Sophie seems quite fresh and passionate and I would love to connect with her on social media but I couldn't find her anywhere but linked-in.

Excellent! Thanks for sharing.

I liked this interview. I also can relate to reading on the playground. I was interested in socializing I preferred reading. Can't wait to check out the book.😊

LOVE!!!

It’s nice to find a little interview that highlights a non-American artist and female business woman. Thanks for this good work 😊 👍

Thank you!!!! I definitely edit this a while ago after sending it in, but now I will go back and re edit the plot more. I took a lot of the feedback from watching you do other people's reviews :). I removed the excess exclamation, character names that weren't important etc. :)

Thank you for the tips! An editor and I have decided to put the stories into an easy reader chapter book instead. I’m looking forward to applying your tips!

Loved this interview, Brooke and Tammi!!! What FUN!!! Looking forward to your webinar this Saturday!!! 🌻Roseann

Thanks so much for your clear and helpful insights, Brooke. Much appreciated.

I want to see Brent's back flip ending Ina bend and snap! Thanks for this great interview!

Thankyou 🙂

Thanks for sharing your story Xiomara, and letting us hear the criticism - so useful!

What is that? A post in a park?

how do you submit a story for you critique

Thanks so much for this critique (and to Xiomara for sharing your story)! Very helpful comments as I'm starting my writing journey:)

I just love the way you help young writters 🥰 and love your explanations. Great job Angelica and go forward with all your beautiful creativity💯👍👍👍

Love this SO much!

Thank you so much! Will get to work!

Love love love hearing Charlotte talk about these books!

I really enjoyed this interview with Charlotte, especially hearing about her transition from editor to editing agent. She is so upbeat and supportive of her clients as she showcases their work. That is how it should always be with an agent- she is a like a proud momma. Working with her would be a dream.
