But, sorry, my fellow independent

Hi James, Thanks for giving my blog a shout-out! Good luck with the cover designs for your series of 8 books. (Are they paranormal or for young readers?)

James Minter I have a paranormal, romantic, spoof thriller called the Unexpected Consequences of Iron Overload, but my 8 book series is for 8 to 11 yr. olds.
