Being a self-publishing writer means developing a wide range of skills. While this is definitely enjoyable, it also comes with its own set of challenges. Currently, Maria and I are focused on improving some aspects of the cover design for my first book, "The Nose Knows: Adventures of a Detective Dog", Book 1. I initially chose a cute display featuring the characters Rupert, Ferdi, and, of course, Dario, with Dario's house and the Lost and Found Agency in the background.

As I continue to work on multiple book covers and brainstorm ideas for other stories, I've started to be more adapt to genre-specific elements that I hadn’t considered before. This insight has inspired me to refine the cover for Dario's first book to better align with the world of detectives and mysteries.

So, keep an eye out for the new cover! I plan to unveil it once I have the German translation of "The Nose Knows" ready (das neue Spürnasen-Büro meldet sich bald zurück).
