@Katie Hayes , thank you so much for commenting! I took a look at your book, congratulations with the quill goal! I am a total newbie in illustrating (I have studied art for 4 years but that’s different to creating illustrations for children :) ) but have been writing children’s stories for some time now. I will definitely follow your advice. I have a blog where I post about my stories but I am so bad with social networks and stuff that I do not even know where to start with finding readers or followers (not speaking of pre-orders even). Is it ok for me to maybe contact you and ask for more advice? I would really appreciate it! (if not, it’s ok, I know how precious ones spare time can be! :) )
