Illustrator Notes and Fall 2013 Children's Books

On Illustrator Mark Mitchell’s blog, How to be a Children’s Book Illustrator, he summarized a lot of what E.B. Lewis talked about at the conference. Even if you are not an illustrator, you might want to read this excellent post because if you write picture books, you will be collaborating with illustrators on that book.

If I made a chore of (writing), my enthusiasm would die. I make it an adventure every day.
