How much thought should go into book cover selection? Today’s guest shares five aspects we need to be clear on to have successful sales.

 Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mts of NC. I’m your host, Linda Goldfarb.

Today’s guest is Samantha Evans – Sam's book Love Letters to Miscarriage Moms won second place in the Golden Scroll Awards for 2023. She and her husband live in Simpsonville, SC. Their cross-country move included two vehicles, three daughters, two cats—Pitter and Patter, and their husky.  Sam was overruled in her campaign to name the dog Onomatopoeia.
