Children’s Book
Found my illustrator: Aija Jasuna!
This is another HUGE development in my children’s book journey – Aija from Latvia is the star! She absolutely hit the nail on the head. She captured the essence of 2 of the characters in just about the same way I had envisioned them. The illustrations are truly magical. So now we’re talking up a business deal.
Very exciting projects
I’m still putting all kinds of time into locating THE perfect illustrator – that’s my biggest priority – so I may not be back here for a while. It’s time to focus my attention on this project, while simultaneously working on a few other exciting things and doing some traveling throughout the next few months.
Still looking for an AMAZING illustrator
Arghhhhh… several illustrators later and I just can’t nail anyone down…the illustration ideas that are being presented just don’t hit the nail at the right point… I’m still checking out books and websites and contacting and meeting loads of people. Quite fun though to be honest!
Looking for an AMAZING illustrator
OK now I’m onto a very daunting task – who the heck is going to take the images I’ve envisioned and really pull off these characters? I’m already checking into this — there’s so many illustrators out there though…who will be the best? Time for dinner…
Treatment is written
Well I’m partly there – I have a big step completed with my treatment now written! Time to extract myself from my studio and tend to my household duties, not to mention the fact that some fresh air would be nice and a bit of time on my Pilates machine.
My concept for the book
Wow! I can barely contain myself – last night’s sleep was hardly any as the excitement is too much…I have a concept in mind for a children’s book… I REALLY need to get busy on this one as the creativity is just going to be awesome…time for writing.
