I did it! I wrote 30 picture book ideas in 30 days for November’s Picture Book Idea Month, hosted by Tara Lazar. After only coming up with one idea the entire summer, I was amazed at myself for thinking of 32 ideas in November. If you didn’t take the challenge, I hope you’ll join in next year! My work is cut out for me for 2012—turn these babies into full-blown picture book manuscripts. Thanks, Tara Lazar and the PiBoIdMo community for all your encouragement and support!

Good luck and best wishes for a task I cannot fathom: thirty-two picture book stories. This is a three to five (good writing) years’ worth for me!

Thanks, Mirka! I have the ideas but haven’t even started writing a new story yet. I wonder how many of those will actually make it into a decent story!
