Make sure you say your thank you’s

It is important to give gratitude where gratitude is needed.  Thank you Ian Biggar for all of your hard work with the font and techie side, Suzy Jones Biggar for all of her wonderful illustrations, enthusiasm and bravery to get our book into Raindrops On Roses on the high street in St. Albans.  And, thank you for the support & wisdom of Suzy’s family.  One last thank you to John Valentine (A.K.A. my husband) for letting me use his bank card to order our first 400 books of Bud & Roo’s Spectacular Adventures, without financial support I wouldn’t be able to live my dreams and achieve the completion of my first children’s book.  Thank you for believing in me!

Thank you for Premier Print Group, London,  for taking our project on.  We are looking forward to receiving our online proof tonight!

How to condense images so that you can email them

There is a download called Fast Image Resizer- just google it, then download it.  It is very easy (I use an old school Apple, MacBook Air.  I’d love to get a new one and I must say if and when I do I want to get either a hot pink one or red one.  Plus, because I have the first MacBookAir model that Apple put out it doesn’t hook up to the television;  therefore, we can’t watch our Netflix or I Love Film).

By condensing your files it will be easier for Nielsen to receive the front cover when you send it to them.  If you send it to them then it will be on their electronic file and the picture will come up on certain bookstore websites such as Waterstones.
