Hey everyone! \u00a0Sorry for the lack of blog posts lately, but I have been very busy trying to get Adamsville 2 into port on time so I can have it at the printers by November! \u00a0It has a long good ways to go but I feel optimistic about the journey ahead. \u00a0There’s a lot to talk about with Adamsville in the future, but I wanted to share some of the other work I have been doing lately.<\/p>\n

One of the things I have been working on has been illustration and designing book covers for other authors. \u00a0I recently finished up four different books, spanning a number of topics.<\/p>\n

For something on the more illustrative side of thing, I recently finished covers for author Scott King’s<\/a> books “National Cthulhu Eats Spaghetti Day”<\/a> and a choose your own adventure book called “The Eyes of Hastur.” \u00a0Here’s the covers for both:<\/p>\n

\"lineart1<\/a><\/p>\n

\"yelloweyesmockup-finished-web-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Illustrating covers for middle-grade and young adult books is something I have been wanting to do more of, so these books as well as a few others I am working on for Scott, have been a lot of fun!<\/p>\n

On the design side, I recently finished the cover for the book, “The Road To Briarwood.” \u00a0This is a follow up to the book Treverode The Defender, a book I also designed the cover to. \u00a0Written by Holly Bebernitz,<\/a> you can learn more about both books on Amazon.com\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"road-to-briarwood-V2-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And last but not least, I helped design the cover for a Elaine Keith’s book “Living Expectantly: Extraordinary Living In An Ordinary World.”<\/a> \u00a0A great book on faith and life.<\/p>\n

\"front-cover-final\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As an author I know how important a good cover is and it’s been awesome getting the chance to help other’s books be presented well. \u00a0Here’s hoping I keep getting better at it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
