THIS ISN'T JUST ABOUT PUBLISHING A BOOK.
It’s about finally starting
the dream.
the dream.
You have an idea. Maybe even a draft.
But publishing can feel like a maze... overwhelming and full of noise.
It’s about believing your story is worth pursuing — and knowing you don’t have to do it alone.

-
You have a story you believe in — but no idea where to start

COURSE
🧭 Not sure which publishing path is right for you?
Self-publishing. Traditional. Hybrid.
Have you heard those terms? It’s a lot to sort through.
Ye, AI and Google can give you info — but they can’t offer the trustworthy, real-world insight of authors who’ve actually been there.
Choose Your Publishing Adventure is a clear, focused course (just about 2 hours) designed to help you stop spinning and start moving.
You’ll hear from published authors, learn what each path really takes, and walk away knowing which one fits you best.

Hi, I’m Alina — a picture book author, illustrator, and creative guide for big-hearted storytellers like you.
With three books published and 15+ years in adult education, I don’t just know the publishing path — I know how to teach it. My programs are built to make you feel clear, capable, and confident every step of the way.
I’ve walked the winding road from idea to bookshelf, and now I help others do the same — with clarity, heart, and a sprinkle of strategy (and maybe a little magic too).
If you’ve got a story to tell, I’m here to help you tell it well — and get it into kids’ hands where it belongs.
