I just released a new podcast episode, and this one covers a topic that I've been getting asked about A LOT lately...

AI illustrations for children's books.

Whether you're considering using AI, already using AI, or you're completely against it, I think it's important to understand the realities of what can happen after you publish an AI-illustrated children's book.

In this episode, I share:
• Some of the potential consequences authors may face
• Why AI is such a controversial topic in the children's book world
• Alternative illustration options if hiring a full illustrator isn't in your budget
• How to make the best decision for your publishing goals

It's to help you make an informed decision and understand the different paths available to you as a children's book author!
