Thanks Anna! You know it's kinda funny how that cover came about. I was thinking in an unintended snobbish way, "Who would use Premade covers?!" So I started looking at some to see what could be the possible allure and I found that cover and fell in love! Then the artist added the title for me with the fun typography, and needless to say I ate my words about pre made covers!

I LOVE the cover to your book Everything I Needed to Know About Parenting I Learned in Prison! The baby's face along with the child-like scribble "Prison" is so cute and comical, even in the thumbnail image. It's really genius. Once I finish reading the 'How To' books I'm reading, I'm reading this book!
