Merry Christmas!
Love Naomi and James x
We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your support these last two months. It means a lot to us both to see so many people engaging with our content as we continue to demystify the children’s publishing industry.
We have BIG plans for Words and Pictures in 2025 including some incredible interviews and enlightening posts.
In the meantime, we just wanted to wish you a very merry Christmas.
We love this time of year and hope this festive period is full of magic, mince pies and joy for you.
We’ll be back next week after we’ve enjoyed some well-earned time relaxing with family and friends.
Love Naomi & James x
Don’t forget we have a free resource post for writers and illustrators here.
Naomi is also currently offering 3 hours of free picture book mentoring to an underrepresented writer. More details can be found here.
