What is the aim or goal of your writing:
Writing a children's picture book has been a life-long dream of mine, ever since taking Children's Literature in college to obtain my degree in Elementary Education. I attribute my success to having found Sleeping Bear Press as a publishing company and being in the right place at the right time as they were beginning to search for a Nebraska author for their Nebraska alphabet book in the series, "Discover America State by State."
