Sometimes Its the Small Things That Pay Off
Coloring Books For Kids
I am 3 deep in the creation of coloring books for kids and have noted that sometimes it's the smallest things that pay off. The creation of each takes under an hour of work, each with the assistance of my mortal enemy, AI, who is not my friend. Although it has proven to be a most helpful tool to create images at times.
It took me an entire year to gain the courage to even attempt even a coloring book. Who knew the demand for these things was very high? I certainly did not. Here on the Wealthy Affiliate platform I seen people having success with ebooks and other types of books. Which sparked my motivation to make an attempt.
I began with a daily planner. Simple and Easy. Then came the Book of Jokes, and now the latest, a coloring book.
I have serious reservations when it comes to the output provided by Ai. I do not trust it, in fact you can hand me and Encyclopedia and I will gladly look up the information myself. Call me Old School, partly because I am old.
With that said, I love to create images. I love tweaking prompts and seeing the output then making adjustments. So a coloring book fits my profile. In other words, I have found a friend in AI. Still skeptical when it speaks, but for images, "Let her Rip Chip". Chip is an old friend who opens the gate at BuckOuts. A buckout is a basically Rodeo.
And there I go now, adding bloat to my post with nonrelevant information just like AI.
My point even though I did not follow the outline I wrote for this post. You can find opportunity anywhere. Even in the small things.

Hi Michael,
I have conversed with someone on Medium who sells lots of different coloring books.
He also runs ads to increase his sales.
You might also consider creating a PDF file of images that a person could purchase and then be able to print out. That will add value and can add to the price for it.
I've printed out over 120 pages of images for my daughter to color and it doesn't matter to her if she colored it once or not. She's almost 5.
A coloring book itself would get used quickly.
Just a thought.
To Your Success!

Excellent Idea from the Ebook Master himself! Thanks for the inspiring suggestion here Mel! I have close to 600 images I have created so far and I am making more daily.

You're welcome Michael.
Feel free to let me know if you do come up with a PDF version for sale.

As a friend of AI, I'm glad you're mending fences with it, if only slightly. I love the coloring book idea. I hope it goes well.

Some of its mistakes are glaring, but some are very subtle. I worry about the little ones because I can miss them.
Cool, Michael! Great idea.
I know how you feel about AI and usage, but it's our new reality. As I learned to use it properly, it has been a great assistant.

Hi Michael - I am glad that you mustered up enough courage to create coloring books.
You know, a variety of coloring boos highlighting cartoons characters is huge.
Even at my senior age, I love to color. I remember my three year granddaughter asking me," Nana, where did you put Barbie book?"
Lol! I had to give it up.
Keep things rolling. You will be successful.

Before my Grandmother passed, she colored every day at the Memory Care facility. It keeps your mind sharp and focused.

It's so relaxing especially when you suffer for lots of pain. Also, I humm while coloring.
