Something I've been asked about pretty regularly recently, especially with my critique groups or people I'm mentoring with their writing or their publishing journey, is how much my writing changes from the first draft of a book to the final published in-stores, libraries, and bookshelves copy.
I wanted to share a sample of a picture book already out in the world (I am Somebody), from what I originally submitted through my agents to the publisher to the final manuscript before we moved into illustrations.
Head to my Substack to view the manuscripts and witness how they evolved.
