Milda M. De Voe founded the nonprofit Pen Parentis to help writers stay on creative track after having kids - this book chronicles the first ten years of her journey and reports the findings of interviewing more than 300 published authors (who have kids) on how they found the time, energy and money to succeed -- at EVERY stage of parenthood. Min Jin Lee, JP Howard, Marcy Dermansky, Mira Jacob, Stewart Lewis and more! Plus: data about how published parents find resources, advice for finding agents and writing fellowships exclusively for parents! Published in 2021, this book won first prize for writing/publishing guides at the 2021 Indie Awards. De Voe follows her own advice, and is an internationally published, award-winning (more than 24 awards) writer with two kids. She never stopped, and neither should you. This guide will tell you how she (and others) managed to succeed.
