We Have A Winner...


The sharp/clean look seems to have won out in this one. So there you go. A more finalized overall look with a slight font tweaking to boot.

I have even setup a book page for Leopold on the site here.

My eldest daughter finally got around to asking me about this new book, so I told her the ideas I have been writing down. She just stared at me with her mouth open when I got half way through. After I had finished she simply said, "Oh my god, that is messed up. Are you sure you can put that in a book?" I reassured her that I could. She was so disturbed by what I had told her, she couldn't even slug me in the arm. She just shook her head and mumbled, "God, my Dad is so weird."

So I'd say that's a good start.

Catch ya later,

Experiementing...


Needed to clear my head and focus on something, so naturally it's art. Specifically, it's two possible cover idea's for a new book. A book that is not related in any way to the "A Walk Beyond" series. I am working on it along with the still untitled (and constantly asked about) Book 3.

Anyway "The Eldritch Life of Leopold Torpid" came about due to a request for me to write a monthly series for a website (which will not be named). I decided against writing for the website, for reasons I will not get into, but the idea stuck with me. And as such I have been coming up with ideas for two books at once (which is not advisable unless you enjoy chaos). This book though, is going to be much darker in contrast to my "AWB" series. And I do mean darker, in every way possible.

So here I have two possible covers, and would like to know which you like better. The one with the lamp post, or the one with clouds. Drop me a line and let me know. I would really like to hear what you think.

Hope you have a great day,
Steve G.

Thought I'd Share...

 
Since I already shared the possible cover for book 3 without the title and such, I thought I'd do the same with the first two books.


If you couldn't tell I prefer lots of color to the usual monochromatic, mist laden bleak castles, and dark brooding warrior with a sword, type of pictures. Not that I'm saying there is anything wrong with those types of pictures. It's just not what I see when I write.

Hope you all have a great day,
Steve G.
