                                                   How to format the story into a simple story book.

            WRITERS AND ILLUSTRATORS
     
Illustrators and Writers – both groups and individuals interested in contacting Susie for Workshops on
            “HOW TO PRODUCE YOUR FIRST CHILDREN’S BOOK”
can contact her on her  e mail address susiesarah@hotmail.com.au 

I read a myriad of  “How To” books before feeling courageous enough to start on my first book.  None really gave me all the info l needed and in reality it was a hit and miss situation.   Calling self publishing  ‘Vanity Press’ is a cruel put down of brave writers and illustrators who sink their savings into a product they truly believe is the best they can produce.
 We who self publish are members of the  ‘Courageous Press’.  If you choose the DIY publishing path, you can have total control of your work and how it is portrayed.  Every step of the production of your book is entirely your choice including the depth of your commitment.
 The Workshops are about the journey from manuscript and illustration to the printer, then on to the book launch and marketing strategy.
