I chatted with debut picture book author
Tina Nichols Coury about her journey from the idea and starting to work on her story to having "Hanging Off Jefferson's Nose: Growing Up On Mount Rushmore" in her hands (and in stores!)
Here's what she said...

Thanks Lee for this interview! I love reminders that publishing is possible and just takes a lot of perseverance. I have been writing seriously for 3 years now working on PBs and it seems like a long time, but when I see how long it takes most people then I don't worry and just keep writing and learning. I'm on submission #44 and still hopeful that one of these days someone will love my work as much as I do. : )
