One Year After Starting Print On Demand Books

 It's actually more like 1.25 years but it's close enough. So one year(ish) later and my books are all listed on lulu and my website is all set up. www.retrofaeriebooks.weebly.com 

I have sold a few colouring books and notebooks. I haven't done much promoting them lately so I wasn't expecting mega sales. Anywho I am still designing low content books but I have also moved on and guess what ......

I have started writing children's books. Back when I was in high school I kinda messed around with an idea of a village of colourful sheep for a comic like thing then left it for years. I decided to go back to it and turn it into children's story books. I have kept the look of it the same but the couple of rough stories I did come up with weren't very original, I have gone with stories with a subtle lesson like learning manners and sharing but not in an overly patronising way. Some characters also stayed. This series of books are Tales Of The Little Sheep From Garwood.

My first 2 books have already been published and are ready to order. A third is finished and will be published on the 4th June, also on the same date the first trilogy book comes out, it's all three books together in one book. I will be doing this after every three books get published.

Here is a sneak peek of the cover of the trilogy book

Ebook versions are also available for my books, all links for these are on my website.

There will also be other books available. A second series I am working on is all about Piggy. These are light hearted rhyming books. One is already available both in physical form and ebook. I have quite a few ideas for this series but only one book is complete so far.

There will also be some random books that don't fit in with these serieses. I both write and illustrate my books. I start off old school  with pen and paper before using my drawing pad to make draw on my laptop and put it all together. I admit my first book had a few drafts before it was right but I have learned a lot from that process and think I have a good way of doing things now.

I have plenty of ideas to work on so there will be plenty more to come so watch this space.

Until next time

Happy Crafting!
