I started writing a childrens book awhile back. It doesnt have a title yet, but its about a little boy who discovers a colony of gnomes, and how he develops a friendship with a certain gnome, and at the end of the day, he helps save the gnome colony form the evil bad guys.
I know what a killer plot, but you know what, its a kids book. Lay off.
So I started looking to see how much it would cost for a publishing company to publish my book. And to my surprise, it cost well over $1,000, but it goes as cheap as $500, if you call that cheap.
But the 1k is really the way to go, it has the whole package with it copyright, etc. But obviously i don't have the money yet to get published so I will just have to wait until I can save up for that.
One of my good mates from Liberty, Derek Allen, who was the bass player in the band Brighter And Brighter, that I use to be a part of, is illustrating all of the pictures for the book. (pictured above is a early concept drawing)
So I hope within the end of 09 to have this thing published one way or another.
Stay tuned!
