*Happy dances*
I got an email today from the artist who did the illustrations in my picture book. She let me know that she really enjoyed doing the project and hopes that I will consider her for any projects I have in the future.
I feel a hundred pounds lighter. I’d been worried that the artist was disappointed with the sales I’d managed (or failed to manage) for the book. I do not ever want her to regret the work she put into the project. I have two more picture book projects in mind, but I didn’t dare ask her if she was interested because I didn’t know if she was happy with the performance of the existing book.
It looks like I might get to do another picture book after all. This means I no longer feel like the first project is failing because the “poor” sales are no longer a barricade between me and additional projects that I want to do.
