Official Book Cover Reveal!
I’m thrilled to announce some exciting news—Maternity Abroad: Becoming a Mother in a Foreign Land now has its official book cover! This project has been a true labor of love, and seeing it visually come to life is a dream come true.
Meet the Designer: Bringing the Vision of Maternity Abroad to Life
The cover of Maternity Abroad has been beautifully crafted by Ashley, a talented Canadian cover designer who has captured the spirit of this book perfectly. Ashley isn’t just working on the front cover; she’s also designing the back cover, spine, and taking care of the interior formatting to make the whole book experience as enriching visually as it is emotionally.
Ashley has brought to life the themes of Maternity Abroad: the challenges, beauty, and resilience involved in becoming a mother while navigating life in a foreign country. The cover features vibrant colors of pink and purple, chosen to bring a sense of femininity and positive energy. These colors are not only eye-catching but also symbolize the strength, warmth, and uplifting spirit that every mother embodies during her journey, especially in a foreign land.
Why This Book Cover Is So Important
Maternity Abroad: Becoming a Mother in a Foreign Land is more than just a guide; it’s a collection of real-life stories and experiences of mothers who have lived through the joys and struggles of pregnancy abroad. This book reflects what it means to be an expat mother, embracing new cultures while nurturing new life. The cover needed to communicate that heartfelt journey, and Ashley has done an incredible job of portraying these experiences visually.
The Next Steps for Maternity Abroad
With the official book cover now finalized, we’re moving forward with the final touches. Ashley is currently completing the back cover and spine, along with the interior formatting, ensuring every page is beautifully aligned with the message of the book. The design will make reading Maternity Abroad an enjoyable experience, wrapping valuable information in a comforting and visually pleasing package.

At an event about African traditions, I learned the meaning of “teranga” — a Senegalese word that’s less about hospitality and more about presence, care, and intention. Since then, it’s stayed with me and continues to shape the way I write and connect.
