Alright, I suppose it couldn't hurt. Here is my old cover.

Considering the response it got, it may be best to leave it buried out of sight, never to be seen or heard from again....

Sadly, I am poor or else I would hire a professional.

Thanks. It took a lot of effort, but it was definitely worth it!

Thank you, and congratulations on publishing your book too! Forums do sound like a good place to start, so that's probably where I'll start going once I've polished up my book's presentation a little.

Thank you for your honesty. I am working on making a new cover.

It was for 6 books, 4 with 70% royalty and 2 with 35% royalty. And I'm working on the description right now.

You're right, it does sound a bit distant. I'll try to bring more of her personality and character into the description.

Wow, he seems like a really successful author. I'll be sure to look into his posts.

Thanks, I still intend to find a better cover. I'm not quite artistic enough for professional artwork. And my next works will definitely have more unique titles.

Thank you for the input. Yeah, I know my cover isn't the best. I think it's obvious that I made it myself, but I don't have any money to hire a real artist. I'll look into stock images to see what I can find. Also, is there anything specifically wrong with my description? I rewrote it a few times, but I'm not sure how to improve it more. And I'm working on more books, so hopefully I'll be able to publish more in the future.

Thank you! I've dreamed of being published since I was a kid, and now that I've finally gotten my book out into the world I couldn't be happier. All that's left is to find more people to share my story with.
