Karen's personality is a delight, she kept us going at a good pace, allowed for catch-up days in just the right spots, offered a FB forum to connect participants, and was straight-forward, soothing, and not a sales pitch.

I have gone farther in these 21 days with Karen than I have in 9 years on my own.

Thank you for organizing and presenting Children's Book Mastery. It is, by far, the best online picture book writing and marketing educational event I have ever participated in.

I appreciate the quality and value you and your team built into this event. In particular, your interview skills enhanced each session; your questions were well prepared yet responsive in real time to the information presented.

Each one of your guests presenters was not only expert in their subject matter but also generous and kind in sharing their expertise. With my notes and all the bonus material provided, I am going to take my writing career to the next level -- starting today.

For the first time since I began writing picture books over 20 years ago, I now know that--because of Children's Book Mastery--this is the year I will become a published author.

Thanks for the push.

Oh, it was so wonderful! I had no idea that I could write something so magical like my manuscript! And when I look back at my notes that were stored on my computer for a long time and compare it with my manuscript, it's amazing what has happened to them! All of this happened because of your wonderful guidance, advice, and encouragement! I can't thank you enough for your course, it was exactly what I needed to make my dream come true!

My experience was excellent. The course was exceedingly well-organized, well-paced, and offered just the right amount of daily challenge. ​My interactions with the other participants and feedback on my draft created a community that held me accountable and motivated and inspired me to keep pushing myself.

Thank you for putting together an excellent summit with helpful and engaging speakers and for asking them good questions. ​This was the most helpful summit of its kind that I have attended. I did purchase the option for lifetime access as I am sure I will be revisiting these sessions.

It feels like my world has exploded a little bit! My horizons have quadrupled and my mindset with regards to my writing has completely changed in the last five days. There are certain sessions that are going to have a major impact on my career, I'm sure. Now, I feel like I'm going to need to take a breather and then make a summary of everything so that I can implement it. I feel completely wowed and overwhelmed at the same time.

My main takeaways were the fact that I should just stop dreaming and focus on my rough draft (Jed and Otakara); the emphasis on how important it is to build a mailing list and audience (like everybody), and the power of networking and reaching out to influencers (Ray). More than anything, I feel hopeful that I could actually sell books and that them lying dead in the water on Amazon is not because I'm a bad writer, but rather, a terrible marketer.

You guys were great! I honestly cannot think of how you could improve this event. Seriously, thank you, thank you, thank you.
