Has anyone tried publishing a children's book and faced challenges along the way? I’m curious about the best approach should I go with traditional publishers, self-publishing, or hybrid options? How do you handle illustrations, editing, and marketing for young audiences? Are there common pitfalls first-time authors should avoid? I’d love to hear real experiences, advice, or resources that can help make the process of publishing a children’s book smoother and ensure it reaches the right readers.
