Your Path from "I Have an Idea"
to "I Published My Book"
Not every young creative starts at the same place — that's why we built a pathway.
Start free, build confidence, then go deep.

Parents who want bigger outcomes (a real product).
Serious creatives who want to say, "I published a book."

Editing
Publishing/Showcase
What You Get:
• Weekly teaching + recorded modules (great for busy families)
• Peer feedback circles
• Worksheets & story planners

Outcomes:
A completed, publish-ready manuscript or illustrated children's book
A creator identity ("I'm an author/artist!")
A piece they can sell, submit, or present
Why Parents Love It:
• There's accountability
• There's a deadline
• There's something to show at the end
