My Blog To Book Story

So my blog to book experience – I have been blogging since 2007 (and love blogging still) but I kept going into bookstores thinking “why don’t I have just one book on these shelves?!” I realized I was never going to get the magic “hey, let’s turn your blog into a book” email from a publisher…so I took the bull by the horns.

I wrote my first manuscript while I was pregnant. I pitched it while the newborn baby napped. It took months and months of hard work. But I got a publishing deal (no agent – queries and manuscripts and contracts were all self-taught thanks to Google).

You might be interested in reading my post on  How To Write A Book Proposal and my suggestions for Canadian Author Resources. Interested in writing kidlit but don’t know where to start?! I compiled a List of Canadian Children’s Book Publishers to help other children’s writers and children’s authors find out who to pitch and query.

Always happy to speak, chat, and write about becoming an author – please do not hesitate to email or tweet me!
