Hi Abbie, you mentioned recently about upscaling images. Are you just doing this for Coloring book images? Or other book images too? I am creating a kids book with AI images and Canva elements. I have a QR code link to 5 Coloring pages as a gift too. I created characters, dogs etc in Ai. I did ask it to do Print size: 2650 × 2700 px at 300 DPI for the images. You may have this in a video already somewhere but I’m not sure where Once you have the image downloaded from the Ai tool, then uploaded into Canva and on a page. Do you then download it into an image upscaling tool from there? I hope that makes sense..

So! Book Bosses! I hope you all enjoyed the live Q4 Planning session on Monday! Be sure to catch up with it if you didnt get to see it! Ive posted it in Module 2 inside The Classroom! ... So we all know one of the hardest things to create on our Book Publishing Journey is a WINNING BOOK COVER don't we! Whether it's a non-fiction book or a fiction book, high content or low content.....your book cover is EVERYTHING! So we know the Book Cover is the make or break between sales and no sales of your book (with one exception which I won't go into right now) - but 99.9% of sales depends on a great book cover! Well......most book publishers in the past had to pay for a Book Cover designer at a rate of $30 - $300 depending on the designer and sometimes even more! 😰 But now that we have such incredible AI design tools such as ChatGPT, DALL.E, Nano Banana, MIdjourney etc............these tools are SOOO GOOD, we actually don't even need to pass work onto a designer any more! BUT..... And this is a BIG BUT!........ sadly..... AI makes mistakes. A LOT of mistakes! As we can see here with the projects I have been working on myself today! I really loved the color pallet of the AI output but there were sooo many errors with it. The cat's eyes, and feet, the champagne bottle in the bath instead of the dead dog I has asked for - the taps are wonky, I asked for a knife with blood on the floor and some bullets too and I asked for paw prints on the walls and pools of blood on the floor. I also asked for blue water in the bath and not purple! And finally, I didn't ask for any text at all and yet good old AI gave me lots of text! So all in all the AI output seemed virtually unusable! Most people would have scrapped it! __________ So I uploaded the image into Canva and got to work! I managed to find a dog that I added into the image and I hid the champagne bottle AND the wonky taps with the crime scene tape, the same with the cats weird "toes" I hid with the crime scene tape.

Hiya Book Bosses! Happy Wednesday everyone! So I've been talking a lot lately (and Janette too!) about HOW to build "RADICAL MOMENTUM" in your businesses and how building radical momentum doesnt necessarily mean working MORE or working HARDER or HUSTLING! NO! YUK to that!! Here's how I have started to build RADICAL MOMENTUM every single day and it's making a HUGE HUGE difference to my busness already! 1. I use some simple software called "STAN STORE" which makes it really really EASY (like I'm talking just 3 clicks easy!) to upload a simple PDF/e-Book and have people fill in their name and email details in order to get access to it! So now I am regularly uploading a PDF that I have created quick using ChatGPT - and now I am posting content and moving people to download my freebies! So now I am building and growing my email list every single day! WOOHOO! So now this is RADICAL MOMENTUM! 2.Previously I would post on my Facebook every day - usually a written post. yes I would do that once a day consistently which is great. But often I was not sending people to the next step.......my freebie, my book..... my membership....... etc. NOW.....I have a brand new workflow where I am creating a written post, a Reel AND a story post every single day (and sometimes a quick live video is my aim moving forwards) - what this does is it allows maximum visibility of your stuff every day......because some people like to browse the stories......some folks prefer reels.......some like to read a written post...... and some prefer to watch a video...... and I am using those FOUR pieces of content to move traffic to the next thing (as above)!!! This might "sound" like a lot of work............but its actually just one post and one topic really! Because eac post is just a reiteration of the same thing!!! For example...... 1. GO LIVE for 5 minutes...... 2. Share the LIVE to your STORIES 3. Share the LIVE once it's finished as a REEL 4. Write a written post - just a quick one with a coloured background telling people what you went live about and to check it out in the comments below. Then link the livestream in the comments below! 5. As an additional post you could write a written post with a photo talking about the exact same thing you were talking about in your live stream!

Hello, what are those of you doing for picture books for the illustrations please?

I’m new to the group, I have draw full of hand written stories that I’ve been ‘meaning’ to do something with for the last 20 years. I’ve bought mini low-med content book courses and completed 2 life coaching certifications. But I keep spinning my wheels.. time to stop spinning my wheels and move. I’m glad to be here. 🤩
