When publishing traditionally the publisher will typically select the illustrator, as author Hayley Rose experienced with her first book. With her second book, Rose pursued a partner publishing path where she was able to hire an illustrator herself and maintain some creative control. She recommends searching online or getting involved in local author communities and industry events to connect with prospective illustrators. When you find a potential match, provide a storyboard of your concept to the illustrator and request a sample of their work. Be sure to look for illustrators whose style you admire, and don&#39;t compromise or lose sight of your vision along the way.</p> </div> <div class="asl-wikipage-media"> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-79/Finding-the-Right-Illustrator-for-Your-Children_2700_s-Book.mp3">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../Finding-the-Right-Illustrator-for-Your-Children_2700_s-Book.mp3</a></p> </div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: Children’s Books, fiction, Subscriber, podcast</div>
