Hi Tara, I love your blog! I laughed out loud (which woke up my sleeping dog) at the “Ryan Gosling announcements.” I would love to be considered for your blog list, children’s book reviews: True Tales & A Cherry On Top

Hello Tara, I’m an illustrator/graphic designer. I’m new to the book business and am currently doing the illustrations for my first children’s picture book. I would love to be listed above as an Illustrator or graphic designer.

My book will most likely start as an eBook and move to print later. I have the front cover and back illustrations as pages 31 and 32. It looks like this doesn’t fit the standards you mention… is this going to be a problem later?

Thanks Mucho!

Hi Ray, nice to meet you! As for your format, you might have to tweak the story later to fit into print, but if you plan to self-publish the book, you don’t have to meet the typical 32-page picture book format. Good luck with everything!

Thanks Tara! I’ll see how it goes!
