I like this but I wish I could delete the punctuation. I did it for an Insta post and I’m still unsure about sizing. Like can I just make it fit Twitter, too? And Facebook? Pinterest? I’m sure the tools are there, just not of my ability to use them. This is not an intuitive process for me, I’m not patient enough to work through small details. Except on my books, and even there, I have an editor. Thus, creating images takes a lot of time, but I think in the end it will be worth it.

In other news I am also am working on a sell sheet, now that my publisher has distribution through Lightening Source. The PR person helps as much as my editor. She has given me a template on what to include and Canva should be helpful for that, too. Distribution is a huge thing. Before it was all e-sales or hand sell print books. Now I can send a book to the local St. Pete bookstores and hope they order some!

    Looks good to me. Do you think i should get the Sell Sheet info from Lisa, too? I have received ZERO response from all the info I sent out in a press release. All the newspapers, etc that wrote features on my first book are not responding. Pandemic response? Thanks, Barb

      Since you are a TWRP author, I will forward you the email Lisa sent me. She said it’s so easy. I am just not Canva savvy 🙂

    I’ve never used Canva but generally it’s easier to create a new graphic than to edit one that’s already been flattened. Good luck with the book! How exciting!

      Jan, I’m not sure what that means “already been flattened” I am in new territory! But Canva starts you off with a blank screen and you add the layers.

        Generally when you export a graphic to a jpeg the layers are merged or flattened but I don’t know about Canva.
