Loved this video! I just launched my 3rd book and you gave me the answer I need to really make a splash… my launches aren’t great. Thank you!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! You definitely need to go BIG. And if you need help with that, you know where to find me. :)

Name your book everywhere. Here!
That is the coolest response your husband could have given- '"Let's go figure it out," ! How exciting!
Support is everything! That’s what we do with our authors at At Home Author
What a great, supportive husband!

I've watched this video a few times now. Whenever I lose focus and stray from my path to becoming a childrens author, this seems to inspire and realign my priorities. Thank you so much!
I am so happy to hear that! You got this! Remeber, the desire/dream to write was planted in you for a reason(:
I’m about to self-publish a series of children’s books. I am the author and the illustrator, and since I am also a musician the audio book will have musical background (of course). I am working on a song to sing to kids on the book presentations with my fellow musicians. I love the whole process and the world I am in while I work on those stories. Thank you for this inspiring video, your down-to-earth approach to the business side of the process is fantastic and very useful. I’d love the books to sell to keep the door to writing as a profession open for me.
This is amazing! Congratulations!
Thank you for these inspiring words! I am currently writing and illustrating my first children’s book, sometimes it seems like a far away dream but stories like this inspire me to push though my doubts.
You can do it!
Such an inspiring video! Thanks for sharing and congratulations on all of your success, well deserved :)
Thank you! I hope this sparks your own journey.
Wow, thank you so much for this video! I’m literally at the very beginning of my discovery and journey of becoming an author, and even before having a chance to let the fear and doubt set in, hearing your words here have helped me immediately put that all aside! This is an invaluable feeling and I’m so grateful to have stumbled across your material and resources. Thank you
You're so welcome! If you are searching for more resources we have plenty on our site www.athomeauthor.com
This was perfect. Thanks
Happy to help!
Thank you for your transparency and your great advices, will continue watching your videos to gain for knowledge.
I appreciate that!
Very encouraging! I needed this! I was very discouraged, but your words have helped me see that it is possible to be successful as an artist and author! Thank you!
You’re welcome! Please reach out if you need more help!
I wrote one about my 2 grandnieces as mermaids and had it locally published, but that was very expensive. I did the artwork too, but my art skills are very elementary. The girls loved it fortunately! I am working on one now for two boys who love soccer. I am trying to learn about self publishing on Amazon now so I can get this one printed much more cheaply. Thank you for the encouragement. I have to overcome such doubts, but it would make my world if I can get it done.
That is awesome! We have tons of resources that can help you! www.athomeauthor.com
Great video! Would love to hear more details about what you did with your successful book launch.
