Squished?
My new “secret” book
I’ve been working on a secret book for the last three years. I’ve never mentioned it here.
It’s a tiny little book. Five minutes to read. My version of Who Moved My Cheese, but (seriously) less cheesy. Or Our Iceberg Is Melting, but with a warmer heart.
It’s called Squished!
It’s about Harold, a hermit crab who’s shell has grown too tight (because he’s grown):
A kids’ book for grown-ups.
It’s about growth and growing up. What to do when you’re stuck. And why your comfort zone should really be called your discomfort zone.
I use it in my work with some very grown up people. And it turns out they read it to their kids

I would so, so love your feedback, since I have a problem:
Every other book I’ve written has been successfully self-published, but this one feels different.
Based on early feedback, I’m considering approaching a traditional publisher.
I don’t know how to do that.
I must admit I feel a little nervous even asking, but: thoughts? Suggestions?
Clarke - feeling atypically nervous.
