      @@azakiahofficial7852 I do sometimes! In fact I'm working o a self-published book right now :) It all depends on if the project is interesting, if I'm available and if the client and I can reach an agreement on the terms and rate. Whether it's published professional or directly by the author isn't important to me :)

      Hi, thank you for a wonderful video. I am in the process of illustrating my stories for children and this is exactly what I needed. I plan to self-publish, should be a cycle of 5 separate stories/children’s books. Your clear steps are bringing structure, because I feel like I am thinking about everything at the same time and it gets overwhelming.

    It's nice to see somone actually plan out drawings and stuff. All the other "How to videos" show people making low content books on canvas, sticking together any drawing that are already free to publish a low quality book in under a day. This video is super professional. Thank you for sharing.

    When my kids were growing up I created an entire story of a farm mouse and his friends that I would love to illustrate. I also have a story of a wee little princess and her adventures. I would love to see it in finished form for my grand kids. Thanks for the video Ness, it was the first video I have looked at to learn so far.

It was a partnership with a daycare that writes songs collaboratively with the kids, and we made one of the songs into a storybook. There are some cute sections, but it could be a lot stronger with the knowledge I have now

      Although it was my first book, I should mention I was working as an illustrator for a mobile games studio for a few years before that and have a background in 2D animation as well. It certainly wouldn't be fair to compare my work at that point in time to a beginner illustrator (and comparison is the thief of joy at any rate!) I think your idea is fun and unique, I've never seen a book about a praying mantis and that sounds really interesting! Best of luck!!

I am not the best artist, but I had a local print shop print it for me. They loved it. I am now working on a 2nd book, for two little boys I know who play a sport. And illustrating it too, and hope to publish this one, and learning all I can about publishing online.

      @@ArtBusinesswithNess, thank you! I made the story "a day of adventure, traveling to the community mermaid park to play with their best friends, "they had not seen in some time"", and gave the friends the names of my niece's best friends. And the animals and fish they met along the way. I sent 2 extra copies to send to their actual best friends too, so they could see they too, were mermaids! They loved the book too, so I was so grateful! I gave one to everyone in my family as well, and sold a couple to my friends. My boss bought one for his 3 year old daughter, and when he told me the next morning that she insisted he read it to her 3 times before he left for work, I was so touched! So now I am working on another book for 2 little boys I know. I gave a rough draft copy of the illustrations with the wording cut out and glued on each page, so one would have it in time for a Christmas present . He was so surprised! He really liked it too. His grandfather, uncle (my husband) and my nephew are all in it as teammates too! And it turned out that my nephew and his aunt's boyfriend whom he kicks around a ball with, happen to have the same name, Eric, so he can see he is playing with him too in the story, so it just added a whole other layer to the book, for me.

    This video is really helpful. My friend from high school and I put out our first children's book a couple months ago. I am currently working on the second book (it's a trilogy) and after that I will complete the third one. Your comment about backgrounds is most helpful because it is usually where I get hung up when laying out the page. I am the illustrator and he is the writer so I have the fun of laying out and coloring the pages.

    I started of my art journey, drawing pencil portraits of people. But a local author, msgd me and wanted a female artist to help illustrate her children's book. So it waa quite a big change for me, very challenging, but I enjoyed it! I wished I watched this video earlier though. But anyways, now I'm working on illustrations for a second book, working with the same lady. And it's about animals this time . Another challenge 😆 I'm used to traditional art, so I'm water coloring the illustrations and editing using photoshop. Anyways, I'm keen on watching more of your videos! Thank you ❤️

    Hi my son has been drawing for the passed year and his drawing are mostly superhero characters and he free style them by just looking or thinking about a character, he is 7 years old and his drawings are immaculate, I'm now in the middle of putting his pic together so it can be published, which brought me here to your site, thanks for sharing 🥰

      What a wonderful talent!! It warms my heart to see you supporting your son in this, getting involved with his interests and even looking out for information for him. When I was growing up all the adults around me were only concerned trying to discourage me from this path and trying to find another "real" career path instead. Your son is very lucky!
