Hi, all--my new blog is up, although I'm not ready for its grand opening just yet. But I thought you all might be interested in my picture book analyses where instead of reviewing, I analyze qualities of different picture books to help others see how to set up picture books and make them work.
The first one is up:

Your analysis is SO helpful! I signed on as a follower (my real name is Sarah) so I won't miss any of your future posts. I feel like I've been to a mini-workshop and can now see a scene in my wip that needs more depth. Thanks!
