Now I’m testing some Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic aka Dowser #1 quotes/memes. I have to put a push on the 1st book to also market the 2nd, it seems. Not sure about the brown font, but it’s CMYK for “baker’s chocolate” so how could I resist?
Do you have any favourite quotes from Cupcakes (Etc) you think might work better than these?
I wasn’t just playing around with InDesign all afternoon – just in case you were fretting – I busted out 2250 words on Treasures (Etc) aka Dowser #3, but then my hand started aching!!
Did I miss something? Or is that rather sly-at-the-end mention of Treasures (Etc) aka Dowser #3 the first?? 2250 words sounds good: progress! I love progress! Keep up the great work! 🙂 (I’m sorry your hand got to hurting. Take care of yourself!)
Oh! And the memes look great to me. Nicely done! 🙂
Thanks, Jen! and yes, that might be the first mention … I haven’t settled on the full title yet tho. I’m probably at about 30,000 words now – so that’s good!!
30,000 words?! Wow!! You got a lot written over the weekend. 🙂
Treasures, Delights, and Other Ghastly Magic is my contribution to the potential title pool. I’m excited to learn what you come up with, though! 🙂
Oooo, I like that! I was thinking about using Ghastly actually (it’s in the mix, for sure). The second word (Trinkets or Treasures in the first two titles) usually refers to something that appears in the book … a focal point. Hmmm, I’ll have try more things out … or maybe get the first draft written, then I’ll know for sure!!
I was thinking Delights as a sub for Cupcakes, since I’m fairly sure they’re very delightful. 🙂 Or Jade gains a love interest who gifts her weekly chocolates or caramels or flowers or something. But you’re the writer! I can definitely see the benefit to writing the first draft before figuring out the title. 🙂
