Cover Conundrums

[jeriendhal]

Well, aside from a final pass to correct for grammar, I've got Unexpected Diversions in an acceptable publishing format now. But the hard part still seems to be ahead of me.

I've e-mailed chaypeta and asked her if she could complete the cover she'd mocked up for me over a year ago, but I'm not not hopeful she'll be able to help. She's been AWOL from her

Okay, yeah - it will be a bit rough getting going, but I believe the book will sell. If nothing else you've got buddies on LJ who will buy and pimp the book for you. I am shameless about pushing friends work on blogs and everything else.

We could even do an interview style blog on my 'Blogger' site which has linked advert through AdSense.

Once you are able to get the first hurdle jumped (and yeah, it will likely be a bit to get the $$ together, we can work on the rest)

Thank you dear. I"m more hopeful about promoting since Peta agreed to complete the cover for it. Much easier to pimp a book with elfboi eyecandy on it. Let me know what you need to do the interview and maybe we can do it once I've got the book completed and posted to my lulu storefront.

simple - I can formulate a list of fairly standard questions for a writer interview. From there it's a choice of by email or f2f interview on your writing.

then I can post it to triond, maybe to suite101 - those are the actual 'zines I have worked for.

maybe even sending a short to Big Pulp, nice ezine - buddy of mine runs it

could be good

Kewl. Hopefully I'll have everything put together by next week some time. Then you can email the questions and we can pimp away!
