This episode opened with the Frequently Asked Question feature: how do I get my illustrator matched up with my story for my childrens' book?

If you're going traditional, you usually don't really get much input on the illustrator, but if you're self-publishing then you have the option of doing it exactly as you'd like. Check out Amazon's Kids' Book Creator. 

The book of the podcast was The Affair of the Bloodstained Egg Cosy by James Anderson. I touched on the revolving viewpoint and ensemble cast in this tightly plotted puzzle-box of a mystery set at an English country house. Side notes on the author's unusual twist on the character of the detective and my love of maps.

I highly recommend Egg Cosy for anyone who loves Agatha Christie.
