Cover Reveal: Blind Date Bride & Trouble in Paradise (Custom Covers for Author Arlene Hittle)

You've come a long way baby...

Or so the saying goes.

A month ago I started making premade ebook covers and selling them through my website.  Like many indie authors I stumbled into cover design out of necessity.  My total budget for One Night In Reno was zero dollars.  But I did have 8 credits for BigStock at the time as I often hunted down stock photos for my web posts.

Plus I'd been dabbling with the idea of cover design for awhile and had even attempted a couple via web based...

Indie Authors: Premade eBook Covers only $29 (Cover 007 Monochrome Kiss) #couple #kissing

007 MONOCHROME KISS $29I'm starting to skip numbers.  Three of my original ten covers have sold.  I've since added another fifteen premade covers and just commissioned my third multiple book custom cover job for July.

I know, I'm cheating--my website says I'm not scheduling until August (I'm going to go change that right now).  I have a hard time saying no when I really do love the work.

July is completely booked.

Can you wait until August, September or October?  Please fe...

Weighty Wednesday

It's Weighty Wednesday again.  I'm about three weeks into my walking routine and it's time to add a new challenge.

Water.  No, not Aqua Aerobics or Water Walking, though I'd love to get back to both, my walking is land locked for the time being.

I'm talking hydration.

I don't know about you, but I need to drink more water and less Diet Dr. Pepper.  I can track water intake on my handy walking app MapMyWalk so I'm going to start doing that.

How much water do we really need?  Here's...

Teaser Tuesday: A Stranger in the Family



A STRANGER IN THE FAMILY

PROLOGUE

Coronado, California
“Freeze!”  Her voice shook almost as badly as the Sig Sauer in her hand.  After twenty weeks of G-man U in Quantico, Virginia, twenty-two year old rookie FBI Agent, Mallory Ward, never imagined facing down her first perp in her sister’s kitchen.  “Freeze, Nash.  I mean it, damn it!”
Her false bravado lost all conviction as she tried to comprehend the bizarre scene that played out in front of her.  Her brother-in-law...

Can Ambient Noise Boost Your Creativity?

My first office was a 3ft x 5ft coat closet off the living room of an equally small house.  Prince Charming had to cut the width of a pre-assembled desk down to size in order to make it fit.

I was surrounded by crates of writing supplies and there wasn't even enough room to close the door or twirl around while sitting in the chair.  Not that I would have--closed the door, I mean.

Every night after PC went off to work and the heirs to the kingdom were tucked into bed, I'd sit down to...

Friends on Friday: Author Day Leclaire


Contemporary romance author Day LeclaireDay’s interest in writing started at an early age. “There were four kids in our family, the three girls all close together in age. We were home from school one winter day because we’d had a blizzard and Mom…. Well, she was practically pulling her hair out in an attempt to keep us entertained.“We’d fought our way through any number of board games, had read all the books in the house and were basically making a total nuisance of ourselves. Out of sheer desperation, Mom told me that if I didn’t...

Indie Authors: Premade eBook Covers only $29 (Cover 005 Cave Dive) #diving #action #adventure

005 CAVE DIVE $29Most of my covers are designed for the romance genre.  Although I'd really like to cast a wider net, it will take me some time to build  up business.  But here's one that's more action adventure than romance.

I chose this image as inspiration for, The Frogman, Prince cover, which I had designed by fellow Harlequin author Kim Van Meter.  My skills as a designer were little more than a brain bubble back then and no match for what I wanted.    ...
