shameless promotion... My new book was released yesterday!!!
-
Hi everyone!
I really hope this is OK, but - I am so thrilled! My newest book, that was written by my mom
and traditionally published first in our home country, was released in english just yesterday!

So if anyone would be interested to check it, buy it, tell a friend about it, that would mean the world to us.
I would never be able to make such a book without SVS. So a huge thanks to you all and to our great teachers.
That's about all... Bye and enjoy the fall while it's sunny and colourful!

Thank you guys so much! All that love you give - I am speechless! 🥰
@davidhohn @Lee-White I have to say, picture book world in general is very generous and loving (the community), but what we have here on SVS learn is so great. I am really glad I found this place.
Not only it makes me feel worm and fuzzy, it also help a ton of artists to become better with their craft, in a respectful, caring environment. And it's all your fault!

@TessaW It was the best thing, I loved working with my mom - I see how it might be tricky to collaborate with relatives, but my mom was great.
We were actually shopping this manuscript 5 years ago, with no luck. And when I was already a little bit established, got better with illustrations and my mom revised the MS like a bazillion times - I asked my current editor to look at it and they said it was perfect, because they could easily see this book to be translated and sold for foreign rights so they took it!
I learned a lesson - do not give up, just try to make it better the next time. -
@ArtistErin Thank you so much.
Although I am afraid I am the worst person to speak about how promotion works - because I have no idea, I'm terrible at it and every time I just hope everything will turn out good.
I try to promote it on my social media and do not be afraid to push it a little bit. I am not naturally much assertive, so I have to learn this.Does anyone of you have tips and tricks for book promotion? I'd love to hear!

Wow Mag, congrats
you're an inspiration for us all
