In my last post I shared a new project that I will be working on. I decided to take a break from novel-writing and write a few picture books that have been churning in the back of my brain.
I’ve since written two picture book manuscripts. A few people have asked if I will be illustrating the books myself.
That’s a solid nope!
Here’s why:
Yep, that was illustrated by yours truly. If I didn’t write “Meow!” you would probably be confused as to whether this is a mouse, bear, rabbit, possibly a bat, or a cat.
Have a lovely day folks, and rest easy knowing that the future generation will not be subjected to my crazy illustrations.

Nice! Haha, you are miles ahead of me in the drawing department there. I would be presenting you with a stick figure, for everything! Will you be looking to publish your picture books too?

Haha I’ve always been an atrocious artist, but it’s probably because I never practiced. The hope and dream is to have a publishing company pick up my picture books. 🙂

Hahaha! 🙂 I’m not the best artist, either (I like to pretend). Generally, if it’s a tree, it does look like a tree, but that’s pretty much the extent of my abilities. 🙂
There’s a self-published writer I know named Jeff Coleman who works with illustrators for some of his books. That’s another option to consider. Obviously it involves more money, but you’d certainly get more personalized service.

I laugh whenever someone asks if I’ll illustrate my books. This is what I picture. 😂
