The Story So Far… June 2023

Grobug Books Project 2023

The “Grobug Tales” chapter book folds the 5 Grobug heroes from the 5 “So-and-So and the Grobug” picture books into a story set in the Grobug world. After Grobug Tales is completed, I will launch the campaigns for the the picture books. I will start Grobug Tales chapter 7 soon. Chapters 7 and 8 are “other side retellings” of Grobug books 4 and 5. After that I have to make the rest of the story with the new characters developed for this Grobug focused world.

MTM Breastfeeding Book Production Plan 2023

The week of February 12, 2023 I completed my thumbnail sketches and gave them to the artist.

As of February 24, 2023 the artist has done pencils for a 3 or 4 pages and done an extra test piece with watercolors. It looks lovely.

My artist is still working on these illustrations. I need to request that we speed up the output.

Then I will scan and format images for ebook and print book.

Stick around for my analysis, art and writings as I work on these bigger projects.

STORY OVER EVERYTHING AND MORE!

I continue to tweak my Story Over Everything podcast, which chronicles my progress as an author. I am now using it to help me write Grobug Tales faster. I have been too distracted with making my reviews and analysis, but I am making my writing a priority again. Story Over Everything will bring back my WIP – Writing In Public – approach, which means I will be showing the process of my writing, letting anyone see drafts and fumbles as I get the stories out of my head and onto the page.
