Congratulations! and thank you for sharing how it all happened - very encouraging to know that if you get a reply saying nice but not for us at the moment then sometimes they're not just being polite but might actually get back in touch in the future!

@Phil-Cullen That is such great news and a great story. Thank you for sharing it. It is good to see how the process might work as many of us are just getting into this business and need guidance on how to get started. I will try to see if I can support your business by buying a copy for my granddaughter. (Wow, typing that made me feel old...)

[KathrynAdebayo]

I know I already posted something, but I’ve been having your book pop up in my mind all day, and I think it’s worth mentioning again how excited I am for you! Congratulations!!

Congratulations! It looks great.
I’m curious if you got paid for the sample you sent to them?

[Phil Cullen]

@TessaW thank you I'm away for the weekend, I will share some pics from the inside when I'm back.

[Phil Cullen]

@burvantill yep, they pay for samples. However because I got the gig I didn't ask for it. But before putting pen to paper they had agreed to pay for the sample, I think that's standard.

It was very reassuring to deal with such professional publishers as I've had back and forth email coverdations with other dodgy clients and money was always hard for them to talk about, these were great!

[Phil Cullen]

@KathrynAdebayo thank you so much! I love sharing excitement
