Book launch and IngramSpark ordering question
I decided to move my book launch to September 15th. I will be having my launch party on September 19th. I appreciate all of your comments in my past post. A Day With the Mistics: Learning To See the Sunny Side is online for preorders. I am publishing my book through IngramSpark. I do have a question for anyone who has done an international book order with them. I put my order in to be sent to Spain for my illustrator and a message stated something about taxes, IOSS, and EORI. The message mentioned that without these numbers, there could be delays. Has anyone come across this before?

@Joe Tyndall I have found that Ingrams customer service has room to improve. :)
Book Launch Kit question
When it comes to investing in things for my business, I sometimes struggle to see how they will benefit me. For those of you who have purchased the Book Launch Kit, how has it helped you? What impact has it had on your book launch journey?

@Christopher Reeves I have come to realize that there is value in using a system with ideas that have already proven to be successful. I am feeling a bit overwhelmed right now, and it seems like this kit provides a framework with strategies already in place. Having some guidance and not having to reinvent the wheel is very appealing to me.

You bet! Believe me I have lots of questions :)
Book launch advice
This is a new world for me as it is for some of you. I am planning to launch my children's book in the middle of July. I have been working on social media and it is exhausting! Everyday gets better though. Do you have any advice of certain elements to have in a book launch?

@Rob Cole I love Julie Broads videos. She has a wealth of knowledge she is great at explaining the point she is trying to get across. Thank you for the advice.
One more time with the book cover
What do you think of this latest one as of 5-11-26. Would you pick this up from a shelf to look at further? Is this cover eye-catching, and legible? Most importantly - what do you think this book is about?

It gives me a "Chicken Soup for the Soul" feel. I like the coffee cup that has coffee spilling over. It has symbolism to me, that there is no perfect marriage because we are all imperfect. Yet, there are those that stay married for a lifetime. :)

@Kevin Hall 50 years!! Congratulations!
First impression matters!
It's official — the cover for my book is done and locked in. 🙌 I've been staring at it for weeks, but I just realized I never asked the people whose gut reactions I trust most: you. So before this thing goes out into the world, do me a favor: → What's the first thought that hits you when you see it? → If you spotted this in a bookstore, what section would you expect to find it in? No wrong answers. Just your honest first take. Thank you in advance 🙏

I like the cover! The impression I get from the cover is that it has to do with learning from life's mistakes. I would pick it up to check it out.
