Book Cover!

Wait until you see Summer's new book cover!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I spent most of last night -- from 7 - 12 at least -- working with photographer and graphic artist, Daniel Silva of Foto Fly, on my outrageously spectacular cover.

It doesn't look anything like Summer's first babystep onto bookshelves. I think this cover will knock your socks off!

REALLY.

So, it's coming together. The book layout people are busy laying out the pages. The printer is moving along and soon... I promise... Summer will return.

I think I enjoy the development process as much as the writing process... Thanks for the great time, Daniel.

Summer is hotter than ever!

Summer Really Is Coming Again!

I know I've been promising this for awhile now. But, it is really happening. I'm meeting with a graphic artist this week to work on the cover. Shannon Guymon has endorsed the new manuscript and I'm filing for my copyright today! Wow. It is all happening.

I'm doing a book signing on August 17, 2011 at the American Fork Library and selling the very last of my books... about 15 in total... and then its on to the sequel.

October is the d-day. So its countdown time. Thanks to all my loyal fans! It's just around the corner.

Cold and Windy... May?

I'm looking out my office window at the gray sky, the trees nearly bending to the ground and feeling the chill as it leaks in through my window. I've got on long pants, closed toe shoes and a sweater! It's the middle of May, for Pete's sake. But, who can argue with Mother Nature and win? It could be so much worse. So, I'm not complaining just observing.

However, the good news is that Summer is really on it's way. Both literally and figuratively. My book is first edited. Yup! First go around, I'm happy to report, is done and stamped as "approved". Now, the second begins as my readers read the pages and find all the errors I have missed or made. I think the story is sound. The comma's -- now that's another issue altogether.

So, here's to good friends who know grammar, writing, and good story-telling. Press on. Summer Awaits.
