I know many authors who've thought about it, but few who have done it... written a children's book.As the parent of three children, it's certainly something that I have considered. One man who has leapt into children's fiction is John Mashni. He's recently written and published CinderToot, which is a take on the tale of Cinderella.Having read the book, I surprised myself by laughing out loud as it's hilarious, and the illustrations that accompany it are superb.In this episode, John, who runs his own legal practice, explains why he chose to write a children's book in the first place and how writing it taught him some valuable parenting lessons. In this episode, we discuss: The premise of the book and why John decided to write itWhat to include in a children's bookHow long the editing and illustrations tookDescribing illustrations to an illustrator How John is marketing the bookCan anyone write a children's book?Resources:CinderTootHow to Write a Children's Book Free CourseJohn Mashni on MediumSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/becomeawritertoday)
