I've had a good day, but the time has come to an end and I must get to my book now. With the time, I don't see me getting more than one chapter finished today, but that's okay, it's a long chapter. It could take the rest of the day to edit it. If I get a chance, I'll be back. I also want to watch a Christmas movie. We'll see if I have time for it. Have a wonderful day. Thanks for reading. What do you think of this for the back cover picture?

Even if it's a nice photo, I am not sure that using a photo connected to a holiday is a good idea for the back cover of a book, particularly if the book has nothing to do with Christmas.

@almostoveryou I am not at all saying not to add a photo of her, I am talking about the opportunity to use a "Christmas photo". All authors use to put their photo on the inside cover.

@LadyDuck I agree with you. That's why I'm considering this photo instead. When it's cropped the wreath won't be in the picture.

Although I've seen some novels that have the author's picture on the back cover -- I think it was Danielle Steele or Nora Roberts??

Looks like you already decided on a different picture, cropped of course. But this would be swell as well. There you go, hard at work.

I'm always hard at work. Yes, I've decided and it's ready to submit to my publisher.

I don't blame you @just4him I usually only see head shots of authors on those back covers and some don't even smile.

Thank you. I love the picture, but I've decided against that one for the back cover of the book.

@rebelann My last cover, my son took my picture and wouldn't allow me to smile. I never liked the picture, but it is still a nice picture.

It's nice to hear that you are working on your book. You know Valerie I am feeling like watching a Christmas Movie, so is there any you might suggest me to watch? Also I would say the photo above can go for a back cover cause you look smiling, happy and it always great to see who is the great mind behind a book.

Thank you. Though I've decided on a different photo. There are a lot of great Christmas movies. I don't know if you have DVD's or Netflix or Cable, so I don't know what to suggest for you. If you have Netflix - my all-time favorite, White Christmas, is there.

@just4him It is quite alright to think better on a picture you will publish on your book, hopefully We all can see the photo. I can download the movie, I will look it up and see it. thanks for the great advise!

Thank you. But I've reconsidered it for the cover as it's a holiday picture.
