Apologies

 Hi, y'all! I'm sorry - I meant to have the second post in the book cover series up today. But . . . life happened, and I just couldn't get it done on time without stressing myself out badly.

 Hopefully it'll be up Friday, though! If not, you can count it being posted by Tuesday evening!

Once again, I'm sorry about that!

See y'all on Friday, hopefully!!

The New Year's Book Tag

  Thanks for this fun tag, Katja ! Here we go! 1. How many books are you planning to read in 2021? 70! When I say that, I don't mean full-length print novels for all of them. I set my Goodreads reading goal at 70, and that includes print novels, ebooks, audiobooks, novellas, and short stories. 2. Name 5 books that you didn’t get to this year but want to make a priority in 2021. O to Be Like Thee by Kassie Angle Smoke Screen by Terri Blackstock Vow of Justice by Lynette Eason The Eagle of the Ninth by Rosemary Sutcliff Phantom Thief by P.D. Atkerson 3. What genre do you want to read more of? Suspense, particularly ones with law enforcement as main characters. 🤩💙 4. Name 3 non-book-related goals for 2021. Keeping up with my blog. Journalling at least a few days a week. Staying hydrated better than I have been.  5. What’s a book you’ve had forever that you still need to read? Hmmm . . . there are several, and I listed a few of my favorites in question #2. But . . . I'm goi...

Fonts & Titles: Book Cover Design Crash Course - Part 1

Welcome to day one in my new three-part series!  For three Tuesdays in a row, I want to share some tips about the incredible art of designing book covers. I've spent hours and hours researching, observing, critiquing, experimenting with, stressing over, and having fun with book cover design. And I'm still not tired of it. Matter of fact, I spent hours yesterday making sample covers for this blog post, knowing full and well that there wasn't even a story to go with any of them. However, for a lot of y'all, stressing for hours over the perfect book cover probably  isn't  your idea of fun.  But that doesn't mean you get to skip doing it. I know that a lot of people will tell you that you should always  hire a professional to create your cover. And I'm not saying that isn't a good idea.  But I know that professional book covers are expensive, and that a lot of indie authors don't have a couple hundred dollars lying around to buy one. So, hopefully, I can...

Let Me Introduce You...

I admit it.      My characters are real people to me. They have personalities, ideals, quirks, motivations, beliefs, good points, bad points. Like real-life people. I just happened to make these people up.     They're real to me, though, and I hope that, once you read their stories, they'll be real to you, too (a lot of commas right there).     First, though, you've got to know who they are. So that's what this post is about. I want to introduce you to some of the major characters in my novel, then you can ask questions about them - questions that they can answer in upcoming posts.     Now, to those intros. Protagonist: Briannon     Seventeen-year-old Briannon should be living in Zayvia's castle with her family of nobility. Instead, she's been living with a peasant family since she was twelve. She's left ruling to her uncle and sister - that's the way it's always been, even if it's wrong. But som e things are impossible to igno...
