Help Me Decide-2: #BookCover Finalist

Wednesday, June 6, 2026

Heartfelt thanks to everyone who visited my midweek post to help me choose a book cover for my upcoming nonfiction book.  It’s a resource book for authors, but it has loads of 1920s details for trivia lovers, and anyone who simply thinks the Roaring Twenties are the cat’s pajamas!

Previously I showed four cover concepts.  Click here for that post.  The fourth option was the most popular.  It was also my pick (probably…) because it used the same flapper silhouette as another book in the “Author Tool Chest” series, Speak Flapper. 

Still feeling the pull to explore ideas, I’ve made one more concept — this one based on that most popular concept.  So today, I’m showing those two.  For your reference, I’ve showed all of the other related books at the top of this post. 

The Previous Idea

Gold flapper dancing

One More Idea

Because everyone “got” my idea with the typewriter, I made it more prominent.  The book covers a wide range of 1920s details for any character in a Roaring Twenties setting.  So, to show that the book is about more than “flapper girls” I used a man and a woman.

Which of these two do you think works best for the book?  Your constructive feedback is welcome.  I hope your weekend is the bee’s knees!  Hugs.

Help Me Decide — #BookCover

Wednesday, June 3, 2026

Alrightie. Welcome to Grumpyville… I just lost an entire post because my Internet blinked off.   And I was asking so nicely, for your help in choosing a book cover — and I so carefully described what the upcoming book is about.   However, now I’m doing the bare basics.   If you would please be so kind as to help me decide on the cover for my next nonfiction book?  Tell me the one you like best in a comment… A, B, C, or D.  If you could add “why” that would be great.

I’m showing you Speak Flapper above, for your reference, because this book is about the Roaring Twenties.   It’s filled with loads of the kinds of details that authors can use to make their 1920s characters come to vivid life.  Ready?

By the way — I wanted to keep it similar to Speak Flapper, but there were limits on that because of a few reasons… Maybe that isn’t all that important…

A

Black on gold, flapper and car

B

The least similar to the rest of my series, but maybe that’s okay…   

Photo with cut-outs

C

Cut-out flapper with typewriter and border

D

And lastly… Gold flapper dancing

Let me know which of these works best for you, keeping in mind the kind of book it is.  Wishing you a splendiferous rest of the week!  Hugs.
