I originally made this book as a birthday gift for my little stepson, who had been telling us that “having two homes is difficult.” I wanted to make him a story that showed the funny, annoying, confusing and completely ordinary parts of having two homes, without making it all sad or scary. I shared some of the illustrations on Reddit while I was working on it, mostly to figure out whether this was something worth turning into a real book. People liked it. More importantly, HE loved it. And since kids and strangers on the internet are mostly brutally honest, I figured that was about as good a focus group as I was going to get. So I went for it. After more Photoshop files, KDP uploads, margin adjustments, proof copies and tiny last-minute changes than I care to admit, I wrote a book! It’s called Jimmy’s Two Homes, and it’s an illustrated picture book for young kids whose mom and dad live apart. It’s finally out in the world, which still feels a little surreal. If you decide to get a copy, I’d obviously be over the moon. And if you enjoy it, an honest review would mean a lot to a first-time indie author. But I’ll be even happier if you know a kiddo living between two homes who might see a little bit of their own life in Jimmy’s story. :) Jimmy's Two Homes on Amazon   submitted by   /u/Katerina_Branding   to   r/IndieBookPromo [link]   [comments]
