Have you ever had a vision? You know, the kind that is in full color running around you head screaming to get out. I have a vision. My daughter is a very talented artist with natural innate skill. I, on the other hand, went to school for it. Those who can’t, teach. I see my characters and setting so clearly in my head, but I cannot translate them onto paper in a visual form. I’ve been lucky to locate two artists who have captured my visions in my head for my book series. It’s just a matter of finding the funding to hire their vision. It’s a dilema many writers have. I am chasing an elusive publishing contract, yet am considering self publishing. It’s a Catch 22. Most publishers and agents won’t even consider a self published book, but they want you to be an award winning author with a large fan base. What’s an emerging author to do?
