Engaging Young Readers One Book at a Time

Co-Writing Roles, Bumps in the Road, and Self-Publishing

By now, you’ve seen our interview with Author, Carol Baldwin in August. We were featured on her page in Part I on how Cat and I met and how we got started as co-authors. In case you missed it, you can read more about it here.

Today we’re back to tell you on how we came about deciding many issues on who was going to write what for our story, Just Between Sam and Me.

Who was going to write the opening? The end? How did we develop our characters? How did we solve our issues when we disagreed on a particular scene?

Bumps in the Road

We discussed the hard facts on what bumps in the road we came across. Writing a 30,000 word plus book is not an easy task. For those out there considering this journey, we hope to give you a glimpse of what we faced as we worked together creating our story.

    I didn’t know Cat tried writing with others before. I’m glad that didn’t stop her from writing a book with you, Rosie! Can’t wait!

      Hi Jessica, I had not known that either until we started co-writing together. It sure helps to have someone with a background in this journey.
      I too, have learned so much. 🙂
      Thanks for stopping by today.
