Welcome, Children's Book Writers!
Hi there! I'm Janet Fox, author and teacher. I've been writing for children for 25 years, and have 13 published books from picture books through YA novels.
Once upon a time I struggled with finding the help I needed to understand writing and publishing for children. I went to conferences and workshops, studied craft books, and even went back to school for an expensive masters degree in writing for children.
Now that I've happily achieved success, I want to share what I've learned with you, as I have with my other students who've written their first books and seen them in print.
If you're searching for a way to write and publish your children's book, look no further. In Premise to Published you'll find every step you need to achieve your dream of writing a book that readers will love.
