Weekly Update:

This week was a difficult week, to be sure. I got a promotion (yay!) and this was the first week of the new job, so lots of anxiety, new-job uncertainty, feeling “stupid”, etc. And in the middle of it, I finally finished the final touches for my covers for the prequel (but more of a side story, rather than lead-in) to the Hazel series. It’s an introduction to the main character, her reasons for not being interested in romance, and to her ability to get a picture out of a trance after being around dead bodies. But, unlike the other stories in this series, it is NOT a mystery, so might not bring in readers to the series and could possibly appeal to the WRONG readers, and not appeal to the RIGHT ones. Anyway, it’s a story that can stand on its own, so I am going to publish it soon-ish (hopefully within the year) after getting more feedback on the covers and then working on the copy, and then all the administrative tasks involved in putting a book up, which are still slow-going for me since I haven’t done it much.

But that all brings me to the main point of this post:

I’d like to share these covers with you and get your thoughts. I realize they are not my best, but they will improve, and it will give you an inside look at what I’ve been working on.

So there you have them! Please let me know your thoughts on these covers. And until next week, happy reading!
