DAY FIFTEEN: WRITING AND ILLUSTRATING A PICTURE BOOK

PHASE FOUR: Step 4

4. BEGIN AGAIN, WHILE YOU WAIT: during those months of waiting and possible rejection, get started on another book. Then you won't be obsessed and frustrated with the long process.

It's usually at the least a 3 year process (and that's fast).
