One cast, every page
StoryMint plans each character once, then draws every page from that plan. Here is Pip on three pages of the same book.
Why StoryMint
One idea in. A whole book out — and you stay in charge.
StoryMint writes, illustrates and lays out the book. You read every page, change what you like and decide when it is ready.
