Help! Where do I start?

I belong to several facebook groups for authors who already write for - or more frequently WANT to write for - children. As you might expect, many of the ‘newbies’ are asking for help and advice.

The most frequent requests I see are usually something along the lines of ‘Help! I have a great idea for a children’s book. Where do I start?’ And if I’m honest, these kind of posts drives me nuts!

Katherine’s Quotes

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky
