January 2015 - My Job Rules

​January 2015
I had an Idea for a series of books for late primary school to early high school children.
The small booklets would highlight peoples journey to their chosen occupations with intention to inspire students to strive toward occupations that they perhaps had not thought of previously. I made a test book using my daughter, Donna, and her occupation, an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer, as my first victim/subject.
I took this first draft to a very well-known educational publisher, Hawker and Brownlow and to my delight they have said a big yes and have given me a contract for a series of ten books.
This is very exciting for us. It will be a joint effort with my eldest daughter Laura, doing all the photos for the series and my youngest daughter Donna, doing all of the editing and preparation to submit work.
I also want to engage the local primary school, Mossgiel Park primary, getting the input of the senior students to ensure that their questions are answered in the books. I have the permission of the school so I can’t wait to get started.
