I realized that chances are that all you really need to finally finish your own children's book is for someone to guide you through the entire process, step-by-step. And what better way to experience that process than to go through it with others who also desire to publish children's books!

To that end, I'm offering you a challenge...a 90-day Challenge to be exact. It's called "The Kid's Book Challenge" and here is how it works...

Over the course of 90 Days, we covered the entire process for creating and publishing a kid's book. And as your teacher and facilitator, I ALSO go through the entire process WITH YOU to create my OWN kid's book...teaching by example. Our time together worked like this: The odd-numbered weeks will feature step-by-step training on one of the kid's book creation processes. The even-numbered weeks will be for followup questions and hot seats where we offered insights and critiques on stories, illustrations, covers...whatever the live attendees needed.
