Thanks for all the great feedback on my publishing logo, friends!
It was a tough decision, but your choice ended up matching my gut reaction.
Drum roll, please.

A huge, heartfelt thanks to Jackie Phillips of Precious Beast for the design, collaboration, and motivational cheerleading. I’m thankful to have you as a designer and a friend.
The logo had a few hidden treasures, too, that you may or may not of caught:
- The “M” of the castle was intentional, reflecting the first letter of my publishing name: My Castle Heart.
- The kids’ block pattern ties to the childhood focuses of my intended books.
- The spacing around the bottom of the heart gives it some breathing room, but if you look closely, it’s an open book holding the heart!
Truly, thanks again for your input, everyone. It was so funΒ to have you involved (and so helpful)! As a matter of fact, I now have plans to get your input throughout the illustration process, too. You get to help design the books! More on that to come…
