Hi #KidLitArtPostcard day, here's my spooky (but also cozy?) art for October's postcard day. I'm repped by @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social and am especially looking for Middle Grade cover work. See more work at mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co #kidLitArt #spooky #goblins #girl #spookyMG #kidLit #MG

A girl is in an old fashioned dining room surrounded by three huge, smiling-but-untrustworthy-looking green-skinned goblin grannies, who are offering her all sorts of treats. The table is covered by other delicious-looking desserts. The girl, in a turquoise hoodie and long brown hair, is holding a glass of milk and smiling nervously.
The text on the illo reads "Michael Dashow, mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co, rep'd by vicky Weber at TBA."

Just an FYI for anyone wanting to avoid literary scams. A Senior Editor from a publisher likely won't be trolling through KDP self-published titles looking for new authors to publish, and they probably won't use a Gmail address to contact you.

Hi #KidLitArtPostcard day, I'm Mike! I absolutely love sci fi so I wanted to create a new a sci fi/fantasy piece for this month's postcard. I'm available for new work, especially MG covers. I'm repped by @vickyweberbooks.bsky.social See more at mdashow-kidlitart.carrd.co #kidLitArt #scifi

A boy in a black and purple sci-fi-looking suit - his name is Jett Vesta - wields an energy sword, an orc woman - Kirra Grash - in a different futuristic outfit holds a laser pistol, and a short fizzy alien panics as he sees something off-screen... presumably something with a lot of tentacles from the shadows on the ground. All of this is on an alien moon in pinks, purples and oranges, with other moons and a planet hanging in the sky.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! I'm Mili, a Toronto-based author-illustrator behind Warriors of Virtue, a humorous #YA fantasy adventure #GraphicNovel with a touch of romance. Currently seeking representation. Enjoy this cover sneak peek! milifay.art #AuthorIllustrator #KidLitArt #YAFantasy

Lauraliee Lumijer as Nenya the water warrior and Prince Diamond Pendragon — the two main characters of the Warriors of Virtue YA fantasy series by Mili Fay. Lauraliee is a pale 16-year-old girl with chestnut hair and grey eyes. Diamond Pendragon is a very old dragon-person who appears to be twenty. He turns into a silver dragon and has the colouring to match — his hair is silver-white, his eyes are ice blue, he is tanned with dark eyebrows and very handsome.

Well, someone just emailed me and offered to pay 2.7 ETH each for 8 illustrations to turn into NFTs. While I could certainly use the 40 grand, I’m pretty sure that nobody is still making NFTs, and the two letter and a string of numbers email address is a dead giveaway of a bot scammer.

No, but the writing was on the wall instead of on my laptop. The publisher tanked his children's book division and offered to let me buy the remaining warehouse stock, but I had no place to put 3000 books in a one-bedroom apartment. It hit a frustration point that told me it was time. #kidlitchat

Congratulations! As for me, the milestone I hit was that my first (and only) trade-published book is now officially out of print. The Amazon listing is gone, and the rest in the warehouse have been remaindered. I passed out the remaining stock I had and I'm retiring from KidLit. #kidlitchat #alldone

Well, sadly, BOOK! is no longer available on Amazon. The publisher shuttered the Children's Book division; the warehouse stock has been remaindered, and it's officially out of print. All that remains is in a box on my living room floor. I think my kidlit days are done.

I've done both trade publishing and self, and I can honestly say that I haven't made much money off of either. Eventually, I'll be finding a reputable, non-AI marketing company to help to promote my books (i.e. spending more money) #kidlitchat

The more-than-a-few times I've had a similar conversations, I detailed what most authors do to possibly, one day, maybe get published. It seems to have deflated their dreams of literary riches. That was even before I got into the actuality of royalty reports and paying off advances. #kidlitchat

Favorite part: The flow state. When I'm in the groove and everything is going smoothly for either drawing or writing. Least favorite: That point when stepping back to realize how much I have to fix with the problems created in the flow state. It seemed like a good idea at the time. #kidlitchat
