I just submitted my revised interior and cover for approval. Once approved I can digitally proof and then if that all looks good I can order a paperback proof...and if THAT all looks good I can release the print edition! Fingers crossed because I've been having a heck of a time with colors not printing well and fonts doing weird things...I'm hoping this is fixed now.
Thanks to all of YOUR feedback, I'm going with the Matte finish on the cover. The saturation will be affected as you can see in the screenshots I've uploaded...Do you see how the blacks are faded in the proof mode screenshot compared to the original full-color digital shot? But in the glossy finish proof I received the saturation had remained intact. However, that soft matte finish does feel quite nice, so I agree with you all that it is worth losing a little bit of poppy saturation in exchange for comfy handling.
Thanks, everyone! I'll continue to keep you posted on the print edition progress and my indie author journey. ;-)
