Will you please help?

And who better to help with this task than our family and friends.

Assignment:  please vote for your favorite keynote!  

What is it, you may ask? 

A "keynote" or "marketing headline" succinctly tell readers what a book is about and why they should buy it.

It feels really strange to create marketing materials for our story, but the bottom line is that our little angel can't touch people if we can't get them to read the book!  

And I know that it might be difficult to weigh in on these without actually reading the book yet, but we would love to know which one you prefer and why. And if you have a better idea to add, we welcome your thoughts and suggestions!

So...without further ado...the keynotes.  Which one would entice you to read the book?

A)  A powerful story of one family’s faith-filled journey with their adopted son, Daniel, in an inspirational walk of love and courage that will touch your heart.

B)  A true celebration of life as one family shares their inspirational and faith-filled journey of hope, love, and courage with their adopted son, Daniel.

We thank you for your time and your input:)  Oh...and if you wish to contact me privately, please email me: lisa.michelle.murphy@gmail.com

Done.

Well...

Kinda done.

I had to draw the line. Seriously.

I could edit forever. There's always another thought or a better way to say something. Jimmy believes I suffer from separation anxiety!

But I think I am finally at a point where I am ready to let it fly.

So, as of last night, the manuscript is in the good hands of Westbow Press.

Now I need to focus on the front and back cover material, which should be fun!
