A NEW NOD TO REEDSY
June 2025
Reedsy continues to provide me with a rewarding creative experience helping to develop
and edit stories and artwork for aspiring picture book authors and illustrators. Over the past 5-plus years, I have
“met” and guided several hundred authors from around the world. I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying
a few dozen self-published books, now part of my personal collection. And
I value the repeat collaborations that come my way.
A few books truly stand out as exceptional packages of writing and illustration,
celebrating the unique and form of the picture book genre. Jime Wimmer’s, Dear Darwin,
comes complete with its own special tea product! Frederick J. Burns’s , And The Trees Talked Back,
received honors as a Reader’s ***** Favorite, Literary Titan Book Award and a 2023 Family Choice
Award winner. Perhaps my favorite to date is Matthew Bell’s, Fate And The Way Of
The Forest, showcasing exquisite illustrations by Alice Wong. I am so proud to have played
a hand in the creation of these wonderful stories.
I appreciate Reedsy’s services and support. The website performs seamlessly. The
Reedsy team is available to help with financial questions or other matters to resolve
with client relationships. I continue to receive hundreds of inquiries, often several daily,
but I remain specialized In picture book collaborations.
A recent difficult client experience, so far my only disappointing collaboration, put my
view of Reedsy’s support for its professional freelancers to the test. I am grateful that
they negotiated with this unprofessional author, showing respect for my work and efforts
vested in his project. To appease this customer, they did grant a small refund but not
his “full” request.
I highly recommend Reedsy as a professional resource. I look forward to more opportunities
to meet new authors and to help create memorable and enduring picture books for all ages.
Thank you.
