From Lesson Plans to Paperbacks: Why Teachers are Self-Publishing Any educator knows that books open doors for children.

How to Market Your Children's Book for New Authors Marketing a children's book can be pretty difficult for new authors - but this may help!

Be Honest: How’s that Word doc' looking? 👀 If you’re currently staring at a blinking cursor on a blank page, don’t worry—you’re in good company. Every January, thousands of people promise themselves that this is the year they’ll finally write their story. But then... the "real world" kicks back in, and that truly fantastic book idea and New Year's Resolution get pushed to the back burner... again. We have a bone to pick with the 'someday' mentality. We don't think your stor

Grandparents (or even great-grandparents, if you're lucky!) are the original storytellers. Whether it’s a retelling of a truly white Christmas, or a funny memory of a cheeky adventure, these moments make the 6 hour in the kitchen worth it.

So, you've been told your manuscript needs editing and then you've found your editor and they say, "Sure! What kind?" *Insert confused blinking man meme* Editing is more than just fixing typos. To maximise the star quality of your book, hiring professional editors to perform three key levels of manuscript editing is essential. The three levels are - Developmental editing, Copy and Line editing, Proofreading.

How Grandparents' Stories Can Become Forever Books. As the leftover food has been cleared away and dishes have been done (or 'left to soak' 😂). This is the golden hour where family of all ages drift toward the living room, and the real magic begins. Grandma or Grandpa will sit contentedly with their grandkid and you'll hear the "When I was young…" stories begin. But have you ever listened to those stories and thought, "That would make an incredible children's book"?

"Is it cheating to use a ghostwriter?" "Is it acceptable to use a ghostwriter for a children's book?" "Is it okay to hire a ghostwriter?" Let’s be clear: no, using a ghostwriter is not cheating. Do you consider it cheating when you hire a mechanic to fix your car or an electrician to fix your wiring? Nope! Why people struggle with this idea?

First of all, congratulations on reaching this step! Publishing your first children's book is an incredible milestone! The journey from idea, to outline, to manuscript, to published work is full of potential pitfalls. Many authors make avoidable mistakes before publishing that can affect the quality, reception, and success of their book. Understanding these common errors can save time, money, and frustration.

Now you're ready to look into having an artist bring colour to your manuscript. But, where to start? (And why it shouldn't be with AI!)

Children are natural creators! 🌟 Be it storytellers, poets, painters, or dancers. You only have to listen to a toddler for a few minutes to hear some very creative thoughts on what they're doing later and how the dog actually emptied the bag of flour all over the floor and not them 👀

This has been a hot topic for a few years now but with the rise of access to AI and the influx of children's stories being written, illustrated and published by the AI models (😬) it feels like a good time to make clear our position on the topic.
