    Hi Eevi, you are the best and a real inspiration.
    I purchased your book on self-publishing online and refer to it often.
    We published out first Children's book with my oldest granddaughter in September 2023, The Adventures of Kaboose the Rocky Mountain Bear.
    Finding your UA-cam channel came a little late to our first self-published book; however, thanks to your valuable lessons we have made some improvements to our book.
    The latest improvement is adding a bookplate and our largest book retailer loved this new addition and said, what a lovely touch. She immediately ordered more of our books with the new bookplate.
    I also followed your idea 💡 and printed bookplate we can attach at book signing, etc.
    We started a new podcast show Adventures in the Heart ❤️ of Children's Book Authors and in our latest episode put your link to your UA-cam channel as we highly recommend you.
    Much continued Success,
    Papa Rick and Granddaughter, Kyra

      What a wonderful message to read this Friday morning, Papa Rick and Kyra! I'm beyond happy to hear that my videos have been so very helpful, even after the publishing of your beautiful story! Thank you so much for your kind words! And thank you for sharing my channel with your listeners. I appreciate you so very much!

    This is a great idea. I found this video too late, but I will remember if I write a second. I love the examples. ❤
    And to anyone reading this, I recommend the video on websites. It is the reason I even have a website.
    I did not think I could set one up. There was a literal wall between myself and the need. And then I found Eevi's video.
    By the end, I thought, "Yes,I can do this." I took my notes, and off I went. I now have a free site that I love that represents my book and is me. Eevi gave me a critical, much needed option, and I'm so grateful 🙏
    That's a long way of saying definitely watch the video!
    Eevi, your videos make a difference. ❤

    Stickers are such a great idea, Eevi! I never would have thought of that. The examples you shared are adorable-thank you so much for the creative and fun info. I’ll have to think about whether I want to go with the stickers or the bookplate page. :)
    I have an unrelated question for you, haha! I didn’t see a “Contact Me” section on your website (or maybe I missed it, lol), so I wanted to ask you here, if you don’t mind. I’m in the illustration process for my book and I think I’m having a first-time author manuscript crisis. Suddenly, I’m not feeling very happy with it. I feel like the illustrations are much cuter than my manuscript!
    I’d love your input and have already signed up for the waitlist for one of your feedback sessions. But I was wondering-how far out are you? Days, weeks, months? I’ve been stressing and thought it might help to know the timeline so I can relax a bit, haha. My illustrator is starting coloring next week.
    Thank you, Eevi!

      I'm so happy to hear this, Megan! Thanks so much for sharing! It's so wonderful that you're currently moving through the illustration phase - it's my favorite! I sent out a waitlist email for additional openings for my Feedback & Ask-Me-Anything sessions this Tuesday, so it seems you just missed this round. Unfortunately, all Feedback sessions have already been booked. I will add more in October, so hopefully this will still work with your timeline! Have such a wonderful upcoming weekend, Megan!

      Oh shoot! I think I missed it by just a day, ha ha (insert big sad face here, lol)! Darn it! I’ll do my best to keep an eye out for your next feedback openings. I believe your feedback would be tremendously helpful!
      Yes, the illustration process is by far my favorite part so far! Seeing everything come to life is absolutely amazing. I’m really excited for the coloring stage too, as it adds so much!
      Have a great weekend with your family!

      @@EeviJones I was just told that it wouldn't be wise to make changes to the text after the coloring process has started (space-wise for the illustrator). Do you ever have cancellations? Or would it be appropriate to sign up for another one of your services to give me some light feedback/answer some questions? So very sorry to be pesky! :( All of your spots for absolutely everything may be filled up, haha. Just thought it was worth asking :) Thanks so much!
