The Imprint

Dadau Publishing is the publishing imprint I’ve set up with my daughter. It carries our first book, Alphabet Animal Adventures Across America, and it is set up to carry other books Olivia writes down the road. It is based in Orlando, Florida.

For Alphabet Animal Adventures Across America, Olivia and Loren wrote a description of the background, the character, the food and the location for each page, then worked with MyStoryBot, an AI illustration tool, adjusting and editing what came back until it matched what they pictured.
