I loved the nuts & bolts of your book How to Write a Children's Picture Book and classes. Now as a subscriber to your lessons, I've discovered new things before I publish. 2 of my first 4 books are non-fiction. As a teacher, I talk often to school librarians about their choices & I see the value of the Standards in non-fiction writing. I signed up for the NFFest blog. Appreciate all you do!
I am new to self-publishing and am learning as I explore. My interest is in nonfiction with my own photographs
Do you write your nonfiction books in Word, Google docs, or another platform? What information can you share about this process? Is there a specific software program that you use beyond Word, Google, etc. to properly insert the photographs?
Thank you for pointing out NFFest.com. I was able to access it by clicking Writing a Nonfiction Picture Book...though it would not come up on google simply using NFFest.com. Wonder why? I don't know how you find these sites. They never seem to show up when I'm searching but are just what I need. I feel I learn something every post and appreciate more than you know.

Hey, Francesca:
I use Abode inDesign. For print-on-demand services, I use KDP and Ingram.
Read the rest of the blog because it has detailed answers to printers and print-ready files.

The site probably requires a WWW before the URL. There’s a Facebook group for this also, and I’m a member that which is where I heard about this.

Who do you recommend for printing the books?
Thank you.
