Im new to this. So can anyone recommend a good children's picture book literary agent, or a publishing house for the above. UK based preferably.

Thanks in advance

Long story short - In Spring 2017 my 2yr old daughter gets cancer. My partner and I enrich her imagination throughout treatment to keep her spirits up.

Much of the silliness we concocted forms the basis for a picture book that I set to work on and, after 3 years, have now completed.

The book is designed to appeal to all kids, but to have extra meaning to kids in hospital (and their parents) giving them a little bit extra courage and hope.

If I have to self publish, I will. But I first want to try and get an agent, publisher, yadda, yadda.

Hi, Julie Jones here, a new member on this site.

I am currently writing my first non-fiction book and have recently acquired a non-fiction writing qualification for the Manchester Writer's Bureau.

I am working from 30 years of journals and knowledge gained over 30 years of interest in Israel and Palestine.  My book covers the period from British Mandatory rule to today. 

After an absence of several years (due to a variety of causes, including having my e-mail account hacked - leading to TWO laptops being put out of commission; also a long trough in my bi[polarity ]cycle), I've returned to work... as a writer, an editor, a translator, and a publisher. My "publishing hut" is currently undergoing a complete make-over. It's "breaking and entering" into the digital market.

So here I am, back on W&As, as well. I'm keeping busy (there's lots of work in converting past titles into digital format), but I'll try to look in here now and then.

Hello! I’m a 3rd year illustration student looking for a writer to collaborate with for my upcoming project. I’d like to collaborate with someone who has interest in mental health issues or have already written about mental health and is seeking an illustrator! My style is varied but mostly digital. If this interests you I can send my portfolio :)
