Children’s picture books represent some of the most elegant combinations of storytelling and artwork to be found in literature. Writing and illustrating one can be both a joy and a struggle. The process involves a great deal of research and refining to get just the right combination of words and pictures, written at the appropriate reading level and important enough to be memorable. Once you’ve written your book, publishing it can be a daunting task. In traditional publishing, there are many factors to consider when choosing a book to accept for publication. Much of the deliberation is over the marketability of any given title…in other words, how well it will sell. Once a book is chosen, a team of people is usually assigned to design and edit it, send it to the printer, and then get it into readers’ hands. As both the author and publisher of the book, you’ll have to learn how to wear many different hats. In this free video guide to self-publishing, discover how to do just that from an author who has already successfully published her own picture book. Learn important tips and techniques for writing, illustrating, editing, printing, marketing, and selling your very own children’s picture book.
