✨ Encouragement for Dream Builders ✨ Sometimes it feels like we’ve poured time, energy, and resources into something we love… but the results don’t show up as quickly as we’d hoped. That’s not failure—that’s planting. Seeds don’t sprout the same day they’re sown. 🌱 I remind myself daily: this season of building is not wasted. Every conversation, every share, every book, every connection—it all adds up, even when it doesn’t look like it yet. To anyone else on this journey: believe in your mission, even on the slow days. The world needs your voice, your work, your passion. Revenue may be delayed, but impact is happening now. Keep showing up—you are closer than you think. 💛

Hi all! I’m so excited to be a part of this group. I recently released my debut picture book, Brave Buddy’s Big Mission on August 19th. I’m prepping for an upcoming storytime/book signing and an early childhood education conference where I’ll be selling my book. Do you have any recommendations on what to bring to these events other than book? I’ve researched and saw bookmarks, stickers, marketing materials, but would love to hear from you all and where you order any customized material! Thank you so much in advance!!

I am a children’s author, former athletic event choreographer, writer for charities, tv public events, and business manuals. I’m loving being in the children’s author world now. I look forward to connecting and being part of this Community.
