In the Meantime...

 Writing and publishing children's books takes time! 
When you are learning how to do everything correctly; even if the story is simple and short the process is anything but that.

 There are also times when all you can do is wait...
Submit your book and wait for the format to be approved.  
Fix the problem with your format, submit again then pray it goes through this time.
Order a proof and wait for it to come in the mail. 
Hire an illustrator and wait for the art to be complete.
Order the final book and wait for it to come in the mail so that you can make social media content with the actual product in hand!

Work hard, wait. Work hard, wait. Work hard, wait. Then comes the advertising and promoting of the books! That is a job in itself! True work! And that my friends is where I'm about to be. My books will be in my hands by the end of the week! Then I can work, work, work to spread the news of my series!

 As well as the next book series which is already halfway done! 

The animal books series is available on Amazon.com now! Right now! Go, check it out!

The first book will be available by the end of 2026! It is called When Papi Has To Leave. A story about military employment and the family!

My little sister is my illustrator for this series! She is a wonderful artist and I am excited to be working with her on this project. 
I am extremely excited about that series and can hardly wait to share it with you!

Discovering ChatGPT

Image
  Like many people I held off on accepting AI into my life. To delay robots and AI from taking over all of human kind's purposes and jobs. (j/k) Also,Like many people I am discovering ChatGPT for msyelf now. It is my new best friend!!!  As an author I was against using AI. It should not provide illustrations and especially not the words for books. If AI is doing the work then the "author" is not the author!   It also damages the market for real authors and illustrators. Not just by taking their jobs but by saturating the market. If it is too easy for anyone to produce books then the real author's works can get hidden among the sea of available product. Yet, finally I looked into AI generation for the average Joe. I tried it out on illustrations I already painted and sell in my animal book series.

Through researched I learned what to do during this journey and I came up with my plan... Have fun writing. Build my collections. Use AI for all of my illustrations as it is best on the wallet and fast. Having a real illustrator make the art takes much more time.  Book in person readings at local libraries. Invite everyone I know to come show support.  Have books available for purchase, if the libraries allow. Otherwise, just paper handouts with the QR code to my Amazon books.   Send books to popular Storytime Youtubers in case they want to do a session on one of my works.  Continue writing more books. Once I started writing...the ideas for books kept coming. I have a list of books to write in the future.     Currently I am at the point where I am going to reach out to local venues to...
