Writing Children's Books

If you've had success writing articles or fillers, you may feel that it's time to branch out in your writing endeavors. Deep in most writers' hearts lurks the dream of writing a book.

You may be considering starting with a children's book--certainly, you'll be looking at a smaller word count and feel it may be a little easier to tackle than a novel.

Breaking into the children's book publishing industry is difficult but not impossible.

What Does It Entail?
* Give publishers exactly what they want
* Learn what makes a good children's book
* Write your story for the applicable category
* Format your manuscript to industry standards
* Submit it to paying publishers

As can be seen from the foregoing, it takes no small amount of know-how to break into children's books. Writers learn best from other writers, benefiting from their experience and the hard lessons learned along the way.

You can spend years sending out manuscripts--like a hamster running on a wheel and going nowhere--or you can learn from those who have nailed the industry and know what works . . . and what doesn't.
