Description:...

Jump Start Your Career As a Children's Writer!

Many years ago, I had the idea for my first picture book. I sat on in for years for one reason and one reason only: I couldn't draw. Like at all! Even my stick figures looked terrible!

I hoped one day to be connected with an illustrator who couldn't write, but one day I decided to stop waiting and start doing! I got proactive and started looking for an illustrator. And it wasn't as much as I anticipated. I realized that this was something that really could be done on a budget!

This book is twofold:

1. One, it's for writers like me who need to know how to find an illustrator on a budget
2. Two, it's for children's writers who are hoping to one day make a living doing this.

Let's be clear: This is not an easy career; nor is one you will get rich quick at. But if you are ready for some hard work, then read on!

Note: this book is based of "The Six Figure Writer"; it has an expanded section covering Children's Authorship.
