A blog about Ebooks for children and self publishing children’s books in general. I’ve become increasingly interested in e-stuff lately and having a four year old daughter who is just beginning her journey into the written word began to bring the two together. Add to that my interest in cartooning and illustration and an idea for a kids ebook bloomed.

As I progress I’ll add my experiences of Digital publishing and post any insights I gain. I intend to publish ebooks as PDF’s and on the Amazon Kindle. In the UK we haven’t got the Kindle Fire yet. As I understand it Fire will support full colour images making it more reasonable to publish this way.

My first (Of many I’m thinking) is a story about the Earth and the Moon. I’ve uploaded some initial Sketches along with some of the final artwork rendered mostly digitally.

I’m a latecomer to digital art hence my clinging onto pencil, paper and ink for early sketches, preparatory drawings etc and an inability to let go completely. I scan in ink drawings and then add colour using corel painter. When I am braver I will do it all on the computer. I will.

Let me know what you think.
