danny the dragon
Almost time to start editing the text
I have enlisted the help of Rosemary Delderfield – my editor. She is based out of LA. Life goes on and I have a lot of life in me. Back to work and I am still in LA, staying with the kids. Planning to get that laser back surgery I put off. Here I go, always adding something exciting to my life.
Danny’s face is a little too round
Uh-oh, upon closer inspection of the sketches, I’m seeing that Danny’s face has been changed a bit in the “round” department. So she is going to make some changes for me.
First draft sketches
The first draft sketches of the characters and scenes are here! Marvelous! A few changes, questions and requests and we are moving along.
Busy, busy with various projects
I’m still busy on other projects, but excitedly anticipating Aija’s first sketches!
Still no word from Aija
I still haven’t heard back from Aija, but I’m sure there is much happening in Latvia that I have no clue about over here in the States.
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.
