I am currently working on my first kids book which I plan on publishing as soon as I can get it all together. Having never written a book before I didn't know how long it would take and believed it would be finished by now. Then again I didn't really take in account that I still need time to create an income, market my work and also have a personal life. But believe me, although its happening more slowly then I would like, it is coming together. I have four more illustrations to do, and two or three I want to re-do before I can be totally happy with the results. Then I will enter the production stage. I'm quite excited about my story. I have been priviledged to have such amazing friends in the art community, three of whom have read and critiqued it for me. At this point I would love to thank Jo Lynch, Janice Rickard and Norma Yue for their wonderful feedback. Hold on guys...its still coming, and I will keep you posted!

Hi Georgina! I had no idea you were working on a book. Good for you! Midnight and Sunshine are perfect for a children's book, and I know you'll do a great job (and you bet, I'll buy a copy!).
ReplyDeleteI've been working on a novel for a couple of years now and, yes, it's taken a LOT more work and time than I ever expected. But it's so worth it when you see it all coming together. That part about having a personal life, though, forget it. ;)
