You've written your manuscript, you’ve perfected your portfolio, and moreover, you’ve spent years refining your craft. You’re ready to become a published children’s book author or illustrator, but you have yet to learn the business side of publishing—and it can be overwhelming.
Drawing on her nearly 50 years in publishing and experience writing more than 100 books, award-winning author Nikki Grimes shares the practical guidance, insider knowledge, and hard-earned lessons every picture book, middle grade, and YA creator needs in order to make their passion a sustainable career.
Nikki’s encouragement and guidance will enable you to:
- Navigate the path from manuscript to publication, including submissions, agents, publishers, contracts, and royalties
- Book speaking engagements, establish multiple revenue streams, and implement smart financial planning
- Protect your creative voice, advocate for yourself professionally, and avoid common industry pitfalls
- Build a supportive community and readership in a rapidly changing landscape of social media, AI, and evolving market realities
Featuring essays and advice from a powerhouse lineup of literary agents, editors, art directors, publishers, marketers, and award-winning authors and illustrators, this behind-the-scenes look at children’s publishing gets down to the business of being in publishing.
