Hello! Uploading yet again from a coffee shop…but internet is coming to our house soon I hope! It’s been a busy time unpacking boxes and trying to find places for everything while writing without childcare on a book called Writing without Childcare. I’ve also just done my first reader survey of my newsletter and I learned a lot which I’ll roll into next week’s episode about lessons learned from the last book launch.
Today I’ve got an interview with Suzanne Jacobs Lipshaw about her picture book I Campaigned for Ice Cream about ice cream and taking civic action which was inspired by the true story of her son’s campaign to change a local law and allow ice cream trucks to operate in his town. It’s a great listen with a lot to learn about writing a nonfiction picture book and persistence in writing. Scroll on down and check it out!
