written changes

I have changed the book description to read 

This book contains original poems and is illustrated with beautiful photos. I have enjoyed writing the poems and taking the photos contained in this book. All have been written or taken during the last twenty five years.

I will be adding the book opinions later this week. The plan is for two or three opinions.

Should I move the picture on the back cover? right now it is at the top of the page. if moved, it would be placed between the description and opinions.

revision again...almost done

Book thoughts

I know my sample pages for my book have some blank pages.   These pages I plan to put photos in.
I would like some ideas on different fonts and suggestions on The Title. I am not sure if the one I chose fits or if I should change it.
So far this has been a fun and interesting project. The only trouble has been figuring out In Design. I am slowly doing so, but in the process forgetting some of how to use Photoshop.
Well that is all for now. maybe later I will have more thoughts.

Book Proposal

I propose to use my photography and poetry to create a book 8 to 12 pages in length. The front cover will have a unique photo with text. The back cover will have a brief description of the book’s contents. There may be a listing of photos and poetry inside. The photos and poetry may alternate or they may not.
The proposed subjects for the photos are sheep, horses, and household pets. The poetry may cover the same subjects as well as nature and other things that strike me as appropriate to this book project.
I would like some advice on the dimensions for use with this book. 9x12 inches seems right but so does 5x8 inches.
