Hi Everyone


Hi Everyone,
Just an update...
I feel I'm terribly behind with everything. My plan to wake up at 5 every day hasn't worked out at all. I have learned that 3 days without proper wifi, a nasty cold and my usual workload are all against my ambitions to become a writer too quickly. Now I'm slowing down a bit.
Reading your work is a huge inspiration!
Today I converted what I have into Kindle format, what a tingly feeling it is to see my own cover in my Kindle library on the iPad :D
What I have made the most spectacular progress is the cover design.
Now, at last, I have some hours to work on this project only.

    Now I see that the first part of the title is just slightly too big :D

    This is what happened the first time I took the course - I put too much on my plate. Try to work on just a small part of what you originally planned and make it a smaller publication. Good luck! I have some catching up to do myself. With a full time job at the same time, writing and self-publishing is quite a challenge! No worries, you are not alone :)

    It looks wonderful!
    Don’t worry too much about not keeping up with your plan. There are at least three of us retaking it because life got in the way first time round :)

    I love it!!! I'm behind too waiting for the illustrator to finish. Luckily, I got something today so I may be posting tonight.

    It looks very good and very eye-catching! And I like the word SLIME coloured, it focuses the attention!

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone! Here are my cover samples. You can vote for the upper part and the lower part separately - I can combine the top of one sample with the bottom of another one. Also, notice the use of hashtags on the cover - what do you think? And one more thing - do you prefer capital letter(s) or lowercase in "stray stories" (which is the title of the whole series). First letter capital, all capitals, all lowercase? Thank you!

Hi everyone, just catching up with watching the recording of the first webinar session and I have a couple of questions/requests: – I can't find the link to the sample book Dorothy mentions (50 Ways to Practice Writing). Probably being oblivious, but I have looked up and down the posts here. Can anyone help? – I would be grateful for any extra resources to help get to grips with Styles in Word (I'm working using Word for Mac) Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give!

Thank you for all your comments on my first cover samples.

Thank you for all your comments on my first cover samples. I've taken your suggestions into consideration and here is round #2 :) I've played with fonts, letter colors, hashtags/no hashtags (no hashtags on most covers), header (stray stories) with first letters capitals / all capitals / no capitals (I don't really like Stray Stories with two capital letters S because of the bad connotation. For the same reason, for example, I don't like to refer to students as SS...), various options with my and my daughter's names. What do you think now? P.S. Enjoy the live session, guys! I wish I could join you, but 6 a.m. (Greek time) is really too difficult for me...
