The good news is that my children's story, The Doll That Grew, is almost ready for release through Amazon. I just need to sort out a few pesky details, like choosing a cover, loading the title on Amazon and setting a launch date.
Meanwhile, I have 3 suggested covers to choose from. The difference is in the text. Please vote for the cover you prefer in the comments section?
Option 1
Option 2
Option 3
In more writing news: I was in Joburg again yesterday and have been selected to co-write a course (has to do with writing and publishing, so it's not a stretch). This is excellent news, as I need the security of steady work while I adapt to living part-time in a different province/town and caring for my mother. The only problem is that this commuting back and forth is very tiring ( and getting old fast). But there is no other option, so I'll just have to suck it up.
Spending the day reviewing another chapter of Book 7 and dealing with queries from the client publisher.

Hallo Damaria option no 2 is cool - easy to read and looks 'dolly' Nosizwe
@Anonymous - thanks for the help.
Hello D
I would also choose option 2, but in BLUE (like the shoe) if possible :)
Option 2
Option 1
OR
Option 2 with the words all the same colour and size EXCEPT for GREW, which could be bigger and bolded to emphasise the GROWING part :)
@Erika, Saleeha and Corinna - thanks. option 2 seems very popular:-)
LOVE THE IMAGERY THAT YOU'VE USED- VERY APT. I'D GO WITH OPTION 3, IT'S CHILD-LIKE AND PLAYFUL. GOOD LUCK!!

Glad you find the covers apt, as you edited the story. Your contribution is highly appreciated:-)
Hi Damaria, I would use option 2
I like the first option Damaria, I am so excited, yo definitely have a customer here!
@Theresa - thanks for your assistance.
@po- I'm also excited, but I am sooo scared! There are a lot of "what if readers hate it" scenarios running through my head. But I comfort myself with the thought that is it normal to be nervous.
Number 2, for sure.
And congratulations on your impending publication!
Thanks Lori.
I like the first option, D.
