Get Your Children's Book Published

Join Leading Children's Publisher Nikita Gill and Learn How to Get Your Book Accepted by a Top, Traditional Publisher

Exclusive live online seminar with children's publisher, Nikita Gill.
Live online, Monday, April 8, at 6:30 AM Paris, 4:30 PM Sydney, and 6:30 PM Auckland. Strictly limited places are available now for aspiring children's authors worldwide. 


In an interactive three-hour Zoom session, Nikita Gill will take you by the hand and walk you through exactly what it takes to get your book ready for publication. With many real-world examples and opportunities to ask questions throughout, you will learn… 

  • the critical formula to make your children’s picture book a success (and how to quickly get there);
  • how to manage rhyme in your book—mistakes to avoid, and how to know if this powerful high-risk tactic is for you;
  • how authors work with illustrators to share in the storytelling and create a book that is a complete whole;
  • how to develop characters that children can relate to—and to balance your creativity with accessible language;
  • the right language for the right grade to keep children hooked ;
  • how to pitch your book to a publishing house in a way that makes you stand out and how to gauge when you’re ready to shoot your shot;
  • and so much more!

After the seminar, you will have time to apply your learnings to your manuscript and share your book with Nikita Gill for consideration for publishing opportunities!
