Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
Have you always wanted to write a children's book? Do you have a great children's book idea, but can't seem to get it out of your brain and onto the page? Do you want to write a children's book, but the right idea just hasn't found you yet?
You are in the right place, my friend!
Let's write some children's books together, shall we?
In this course, I will show you exactly how I write children's books. I use this exact method to write all of my children's books in seven days or less.
Please note - This course will only cover the writing.
Topics such as illustrating or finding an illustrator, formatting, and publishing will be covered in a future course.
The hard truth is none of that other stuff is important if you haven't written a story. So, let's get through the most important part first.
