Fun children's picture books that kids enjoy, help parents, and are from a fresh, modern perspective

Amazing What You Can Learn....

29/7/2017

Being an indie author, it is sometimes difficult to assess if people like what you are creating.  You do get reviews which are extremely helpful, though they are not always forthcoming. For me, hiring an editor and getting unbiased feedback has been invaluable.  But this is just one way.

Recently, I joined the Children's Book Council of Australia and am involved in the Northern Sydney branch. Meeting other successful, inspiring and supportive authors continues to give me the encouragement to keep learning, trying and creating more books. It is a great way to meet other like minded people who have been through or are going through what you are doing.  Not only do you learn more about the industry, publishing and promotion, you get to meet and network with some truly amazing authors.

I'd recommend getting involved in author/writer groups in your local area if you are thinking of becoming a writer or are interested in continuing to refine your craft.

    About Me

    My name is Janelle and I'm a full-time working mum of 2 and an indie children's picture book author.  I love writing picture books that are fun for kids, help parents and bring a modern perspective.  Books that can be experienced by both boys and girls.  I am also learning how to better write, self-publish and promote what I do.  So if you've ever had an interest in writing children's picture books, join me on my journey.
