Posts Tagged ‘Book covers’

After some feedback on my book covers, I decided to redo them and see what everyone thought. So here are a couple examples and I would love for you to give me your honest opinion on which version you like the best.

First up is Jareth, First Lord. The first one is the original. The second, the redo.

Left or right?

Next up is Dante’s Angel. Again, the one on the left will be the original.

And our last contestant is The Russian.

So what is your opinion? The original or the redo? And why?

In other matters, the editing is coming along on Old Flame. I’m down through Chapter 23 now, so wish me luck or send me coffee…

Don’t forget the All Author Book Cover Contest!

Whiskey Jug Genie could use your support! So if you haven’t voted yet, go on over and give me a hand.

Other wise, have a wonderful rest of the week.

And as always,

All right, I know there are some of you writers out there who don’t mind editing. And some who actually enjoy the process.

I am not one of those people. Hate it with a passion. I find it particularly tedious, even though I love the results once I finish with it and send it on to my editor. And I’m sure she appreciates my efforts.

I’ve heard the saying that your first draft is you telling yourself the story. The edits are you refining this story for your audience, and I suppose it’s true. I just hate the process. It gives me a headache.

I’m hoping to have Whiskey Jug Genie out later this year and I’m struggling through it. I may have to start adding a splash of whiskey to my coffee at this rate.

It’s like I can see the story unfold in my head, but capturing those thoughts on paper as I paint those pictures for others is another matter.

And it seems in each story I write, I pick one word to continually repeat–sometimes several times on one page. What is wrong with me?

At any rate, this is only an update on my trials and tribulations. Wish me luck as I fight my way through.

Writers, drop me a comment and tell me about your woes as a writer.

And tell me which version of the cover you like best. It is still a work in progress. Remember, this is a redneck genie…

And as always,

For all my other books, go on over to Amazon!
