I’m having a baby!

Ah ha, that got you. But I sorta feel like that with each new book. I just received the last chapter of FINALLY LOVE from the Bonnie K the proof reader. Now just a little more tweaking and it is off to the printers for a ‘proof’ copy.

It is thrilling to see the book coming together. So in a couple weeks I should know the costs, and be able to hold the book to see if the cover is what I am hoping.

One thing I am gong to ask for suggestions about is the type of paper. I have used ‘white’ for all my books up until now. But I have been thinking of ‘off-white’ this time what do you think?

White or off white?

So, I am off to change a couple things and smile again. This book is about 275 pages, it is funny I think all my novels have been +/- 10 pages of that. That must be the limit of my thinking!  LOL

Thanks for stopping by. Again this is the cover.

PS:

It is very hard to trust yourself, if you are not honest with other folk.

Congratulations on the birth of your new book. It must be exciting! I really never paid much attention to what color the pages of a book were so I don't think it matters much. I wish you much success with it.

Off white for a story that sounds like love. Congratulations.
