You would think writing a children’s book would take no time at all. The story is short and there are not many pages; unfortunately, that is the rose coloured glass overview from those who have possibly never attempted to publish a children’s book.
The truth is, the story may take less than a few hours to write the first draft, but that is when the work begins. Usually, there are several edits and then it’s sent off to beta readers, which normally results in another edit before being sent to an editor. While all this is going on, you work with an illustrator to bring the story alive. Finally, after months of the preliminary steps, it goes to a publisher and the waiting begins again until the author copy arrives for final review before going live to the world through social media channels.
Still, there is more to do. To sell from my website, copies need to be ordered from a printer. Depending where trusted printers are located, this could take an additional month +/- to have the books delivered.
I can’t tell you how happy I am to have received the author’s copy of MUS, A Mouse Adventure. It has been approved and is now available online through Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
MUS, A Mouse Adventure will be available on our website as soon as they arrive from the printer.
