Releasing SOON, which makes me smile.
These past few days we have been talking about the upcoming East Coast tour for Four Fantasy Authors.They’re meeting at the International Christian Retail Show in Atlanta, and–once the show is done–heading north from there. The show itself is very important to these authors as well, and not just as a jumping off point for…
Here’s Sunday’s YouTube clip from the field: They met with the youth at National Presbyterian Church in Washington…and did a bunch of signings. I’m amazed that Christopher has time to make the little videos every day, and sometimes several times a day. I hope you’re enjoying them as much as I am! It sounds like…
If you’ve hung around My Little World for very long, you probably have noticed that Christian speculative fiction–in particular, fantasy–is dear to my heart. And while the market for it is growing, it’s still a hard sell, both for the authors and the stores that may eventually carry the books. It’s kind of frustrating, actually….
This week’s simple smile is a new iPad! Hubby cashed in the gift cards that came with his workplace safety bonus on a new toy for me. So excited, and have already had such fun setting it up. Any tips? Besides the joy of reading my own books in living color. 🙂 (Sorry for missing…

Oh my gosh! I remember beta reading parts of this and loving it! Yeah!
SOO close to pushing the publish button on this! But apparently I didn’t allow enough time for ISBNs to get to me, so that’s my current delay.
Oh, I don’t think I’ve seen this version of the cover. Very nice :).
Yay! I’m very happy with it myself. 🙂
It’s a gorgeous cover — but I thought his face was scarred?
Ah, you remember the story from the old days, too! His face is scarred with spiral designs on each cheek, which looks like a shadow here. It is (obviously) impossible to see clearly at this resolution, but will be visible on the paperback. The problem of making him so much smaller and further back. Hanna and I discussed his scars at length and decided, with the layout, that a “nod” to the scars was all we could really do.
Also, going on the cover just brings the people in, scarification might turn some people off but it works within context of the story :).
Right. They’re a major part of the story, of course, and the reader will get at least an idea why in the “Look Inside” feature.
