So far so good! I’m still enjoying the challenge. Here’s a great quote I read today on the PBM website:
”A successful career (as a children’s author) can be summed up with the acronym TOWEL (talent, optimism, widespread interests, endurance, and luck). This is a marathon, not a sprint. Don’t throw in the towel, use it.” -Marilyn Singer

Picture Book Marathon- Whew! 4 down, 22 to go!

February is Picture Book Marathon month, and so far, I’m rather enjoying the challenge.
I’ll let you know if I still do in a week

So, you want to write a picture book?

How about 1 picture book a day for 1 month?
In February 2010, children’s book writers worldwide will be “running” their first writing marathon. Reagan and Lora Koehler, two picture book writers, came up with the idea of a picture book marathon and “ran” their first one in September 2008.
Who’s in?
