Book Cover Reveal!

I got the final artwork for my book today (yay!) Which means I can share it with you guys. I hope you like it as much as I do!

Book Covers

Today I got to see the mockup of the cover of my book. It's a moment I've been looking forward to for a really long time. Pretty much every author dreams about what their book cover will look like. I can't share my cover yet but I can say that I was not disappointed. I love how it turned out and I'm dying to share it. Unfortunately I have to wait for it to get finalized, but hopefull that will be done soon.

So, to hold me over until I can share my cover, why don't you guys tell me what you would want your covers to look like. Or just share them if you already have one!

Taking a Day (or Two) Off

Sometime life has a way of changing your plans. Saturday I had a moment of clumsiness. I basically slipped, fell down a four-foot drop and sprained my shoulder. (Did you know you can sprain your shoulder? I didn’t.) I’m actually lucky I didn’t break anything. The incident, however, put a major cramp in any and all plans I’d made.

I had to call off work Monday and find people to take care of all the little things I normally do. I couldn’t type, write or do much of anything. I was also drugged up on pain killers and unable to even think about books or ideas or any of that important stuff.

But despite all the hassle and pain, it was kind of amazing. I literally sat around for two whole days and did absolutely nothing. It was the closest thing I’ve had to a vacation in a very long time. If anything, it’s been a learning experience. I tend to stretch myself too thin, and I think most people do this as well.

Sometimes, we need to just kick back and relax. So if you haven’t taken a day off in awhile, do it. You deserve it. Plus, if you don’t, life might just do it for you.
