OM-FRICKINI'-G, IT'S HERE!

At long last, our first book in the Gatekeepers Series, THE SUMMONING, is available as an ebook! You can find it now at Amazon (for Kindle) or Smashwords (all formats, including Kindle/Mobi), and it will soon be available almost anywhere ebooks are sold (Barnes and Noble, Apple iBooks, Sony, Kobo, Diesel, etc.).

And here's the best part – it's available for a limited time for just $0.99! That's right. It'll make you laugh and cry, maybe even curse, and all for less than a buck! Go buy it! I mean, what else can you get for a dollar, for crying out loud? I mean, somewhere other than Wendy’s. (BTW, up here in the Great White North, we pay $1.89 for the same thing you get on the $0.99 menu, notwithstanding that our dollar is currently worth more than yours. File that under #itsamystery.)

Okay, getting closer! Still not the final version, but isn't it exciting to see what's emerging?

Will post again when Scott is finished creating the cover image, then one final time when the cover is "dressed" and ready to go.

CREATING THE COVER - #2

Now that we've made a decision about what will be depicted on the cover of our upcoming book (THE SUMMONING), the next task was picking a color. Again, Scott made up four thumbnails to choose from. Basically, he made the base color orange and overlaid other colors to come up with four duo-tone color options. As he pointed out to us, the colors in these thumbnails are flat (no highlights or shadows painted in). Obviously, there was no point his doing that until we'd made the fundamental color decision.

CREATING THE COVER - #1

As you'll know from our last blog, the Wilson Doherty team is going to self-publish one of our Young Adult Paranormal stories (THE SUMMONING, Book 1 in the Gatekeepers series). Because we couldn't find any ready-made images that we were happy with for the cover, we searched out an artist on DeviantArt and commissioned him to paint us an original cover. We thought it would be fun to share the development of that cover as it evolves. So here goes - the first installment of Creating the Cover.
