Advice Needed On My Next Project-->Among Others, LOL
Hey JPiC,

I was thinking of writing a series of Children's Science books , for ages possibly 9 to 12. Topics such as Space, Physics, Chemistry, Earth Science, Biology and such. I also wanted to target the Urban audience. Different from "The Magic School Bus", type, but maybe with a storyline, adventure, and some poetry mixed in. I do not know who I need to get info from as far as guidelines, publishers, and etc., or even where to start. I would write and illustrate my own books. If anyone has any ideas and or suggestions, or think this is a stupid idea, lol, I would like to hear from you.

Painted

I think it is a WONDERFUL idea!

one thing, most, not all, publishers like to use their own illustrators, but give it a try
