Updated Covers for the Wicked Erotica Series

I think I've spent more time fiddling with covers and cover images this month than actually writing. In fact, I know I have. Getting back into writing regularly is hard y'all! And I do so put the 'pro' into 'procrastinate'. Despite committing myself to finishing the first draft of WE #2 by the end of this month, the weather here was a bit meh this weekend, so instead of writing, I messed about in Photoshop again.

It wasn't entirely wasted time I guess. I did decide on a look for the overall series, and I am not going to change it again. This is what all of my future Wicked Erotica series covers will look like. The only difference between them will be the color scheme. And the titles, obvs. Also, I wanted to see how to go about publishing a paperback through KDP - using The Bookseller's Story) - so I needed to make a cover for that anyway. Took the opportunity to update the cover for its' Kindle Edition and compiled and published a paperback version. Took a while, and needed a fair bit of web reading to work out the details, but I think it turned out alright. (More on the paperback of Bookseller in a while - once I get notified that the manuscript and cover have been approved and the book is avaialble).

With all that said, here's the revised (and now definitely final!) cover for The Bookseller's Story. This is a link to the Books2Read page which links to all the sites that offer Bookseller for Free. Amazon has still not! price-matched it, so it's still listed at $0.99 on their Kindle Page.  Of course, if you want to contribute 25c to my next cup of coffee, you're more than welcome to pick it up there: The Bookseller's Story on Kindle.

And also, just for those of you who've scrolled down this far, a special sneak peek at the (first and definitely only!) cover for Wicked Erotica Book #2, The Professor's Pupil. That's the one I promised myself I'll finish a first draft of by tomorrow :). I'm not close...

  1. Super stylish covers Alex - especially for self-made. Well done. Looking forward to seeing if the writing inside them matches :)

It's Out. Raise a Glass.

I've eventually managed to overcome the absolute sense of dread and self-doubt that I've felt about actually finishing Amy and the Professor and letting it be seen by anyone in public. It took me all of 8 months from writing the first line in mid-January to clicking the "Publish" button in the Kindle Direct Publishing dashboard. 8 months! Of course not all of that time was spent writing a short 35,000 word novella. My time tracker shows that about 60% of the time I spent on the Amy project was spent on tasks other than writing. A lot of reading, (ironically, mostly about the art and act of writing itself), learning all I could about cover artwork, the technicalities of ebook and paperback formatting and layout, and hours toward the end on editing and rewriting. Maybe it gets easier from here on. But, holy heck, giving birth to Amy's story was a lot more complicated than I'd ever imagined. At least for me. Two thirds of it was done for ages. And then i...

Bookseller's Story paperback is available

Super quick note to mention that the paperback version of Bookseller's Story has been approved and is now available for sale on the Amazon Book store. I even managed to get them to link it to the eBook version already. I also published it via Createspace to non-Amazon and offline stores, but have absolutely no idea how long it takes, or where it goes. If you do stumble over a paperback version of it anywhere other than on Amazon, whether on- or off-line, please drop a note into the comments to let me know. xoxoxo A.
