My Next Big Thing

Thanks for joining me back here at My Next Big Thing, a global blog tour that has been started to showcase authors and illustrators and their works-in-progress. Here’s another batch of Q and A.

Q: Are there any other projects you’ve been working on?

A: Yes! I always like to be working on 3 projects at the same time. I call this the Triple Crown of Success. I work on one project to earn income. I work on one project to build my published credits. I work on another project for personal fulfillment.

So for personal fulfillment, I’ve been busy getting Yes! You Can Learn How to Write Children’s Books, Get Them Published, and Build a Successful Writing Career, self-published. This is actually the book where I talk about the Triple Crown of Success in detail so other authors can follow their writing dreams and experience a successful writing career, too.

I had it taken out of print for awhile. One of the reasons was that I wanted to add a section in it on the Common Core State Standards.

So I’ve been getting it ready, and it’s almost there! I ordered the proof in and have been reading it ever so slowly to look for those elusive typos and formatting glitches.

Q: Which publisher are you using and why?

A: It’s with CreateSpace. I LOVE this publisher. It’s a print-on-demand publisher for people to self-publish your books. You can publish a book totally for free, or opt to pay for services you choose along the way.

This is my third book with them and I think the quality of their final product is superb.

Here are my other two books I did with CreateSpace.
