What I Love About My Cover Art

I posted two of my releases on the right sidebar and now are available on Lulu.com. A fiction novel and a chapbook are both in the Halloween theme. That was good fun. 

Next year in 2017, I want to finish up the novel with book II and release a book of poetry that is lighter and in the speculative fiction genre. There will be plenty of astronomical poems too! 

My decision to become my own publisher has led me into a career as a cover artist. My cover art is great. I run into so many books with half naked people on them trying to sell sex as their marketing focus. Well, that to me means that you are trashy romances or not very good books. 

So I went in the opposite direction with my art. No people. No nakedness. Just cover art that goes along with the books. Cover art is supposed to be symbolic of the themes and topics written inside, not porn posters.

Writers and publishers have gotten off track. 

Since my poetry is literary as well as lyrical and my novels are character and plot driven, I have gone into my digital art inspiration and pulled out some neat designs. In the Name of Blood is dark and gothic. The Descent is ethereal and epic. 

And that is exactly what you get inside. Mission accomplished! 

So pop over and download these pdf's today. You won't be disappointed. And, leave me a great review! 

Have a literary day!

It's Hot, Hot, HOT

Welcome to summer in the Sonoran Desert. 

We are now descending into autumn. We have to wait another 90 days or so in order to feel autumn but the days from here on out will be getting shorter. Feel the anticipation? 

You should. 

While you are salivating for the darker side of the year, remember our chapbook called The Descent will be waiting there for you in September:
