30 CHILDREN’S BOOK PUBLISHERS
Again, the title says it all.
The publishers in this website should provide you with the information you need to work with them in publishing your picture book. However, I can almost guarantee that you receive ads from them or other publishers. If you find that you are interested in a publisher, once again, do your homework. To not commit to anything until you are certain that this is a publisher you want to work with. Also, it is free.

EXPLORING A NEW GENRE
For those who are familiar with my work, read some of my stories, this next series of posts will appear bewildering. For those not familiar with my work and stumbled upon this blog, I am principally a writer of horror and science fiction.
The direction of the next series of posts, Writer’s Form, will involve formatting children’s picture books.
Your eyes have not deceived you. I want to produce a picture book.
Sometime ago, quite to my surprise, I wrote a long poem entitled Dragon Eggs and I feel the poem can be broken up into pages for a children’s picture book. And as a requirement for most children’s books, it provides a lesson, and I am also hoping that the title with the word ‘Dragon’ in it will grab a young one’s interest.
So, for the next few posts you will journey, with me, in what is involved in producing a picture book.

PREDITORS AND EDITORS
Years ago, Predators and Editors was a website where a writer could check if editors, publishers and lawyer were safe to use. They have been going through a transition for some time now.
There appears to be good information for writers here, but not the type of information that was available in past. So, a word of caution. Use carefully.
