Interviews
Welcome to my interview page. Over the next few months, I will be interviewing various authors and editors for this site. Until they are finished and published here, please read some inspirational interviews I’ve found elsewhere on the web.
Relax and read these interviews with these persevering writers. They inspire me. I hope they’ll do that for you too. These interviews are here to help keep you going as you puruse your dream. Remember what Nick in the movie Flashdance said, “If you give up your dream, you die.” I know he was specifically talking about ballet, but I think it applies to picture book writing too. As long as writing is a joy, keep it up!
