Author Talk: Joann Howeth Discusses her Children’s Books

Born in Conrad, Joann is a Children’s Book author. She has lived in Montana most of her life. She started her writing journey with the Society for Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) serving as both Assistant Regional Advisor and Regional Advisor for the Montana Chapter, where she met other writers, participated in critique groups, and kept writing. Eventually she started querying agents, but that began to resemble running on a hamster wheel, so in 2022 she took the plunge and found the hybrid publisher, Cherish Editions located in the UK, for her debut picture book, Sometimes. Her second book, The Mollys B, is also a hybrid published here in the US by Blue Balloon Books.
