Okay, it has been a looong time since I posted a blog. I have to face it, I'm a novelist, not a blogger. One would assume the two would go hand in hand, since they both involve writing, but apparently not. It has been so long, in fact, since my last blog that how you work things to design this website have changed. A good example is that when I tried to upload the cover image of Wild Horse Girl, it was cut off at the top and bottom. Oh well, if you want to see the whole thing, go to the Welcome page.
Wild Horse Girl is a sequel to Country Cousin in the Wild Woods. Originally, the first book in the series was titled simply: Country Cousin. However, when I did a web search, I discovered someone had already used that title. It turns out that book titles are not copyrighted with the book, so there can be a whole bunch of completely different volumes with the same name. I first found that out when I looked up the book title A Certain Slant of Light. Several different novels shared that title, which can be confusing. To make things easier, I have activated the cover image over on the Welcome Page so it is linked to the Amazon page where Wild Horse Girl is listed on their website. When I first went to Amazon and searched for this new title, other similar titles showed up and I had to scroll down a long list to find Wild Horse Girl because it is newly published. Other retailers will eventually have this title for sale as well.
Okay, you are going to assume my faculties are not up to par, since now there is a complete cover showing in this blog. Well, I clicked on the Advanced setting, and it turns out it was set on a rectangular crop, and I simply chose no crop. Now, I'm thinking I should add the original cropped image so you can see I didn't make all this up, or worse, hallucinate it. Okay, now they are both there. Only 47 kb., so not too high resolution, but passable.
I was going to put an update here about Dark-Dreams Girl, which is a prequel to The Pigeon Catcher, but it should be out in only a month or so, causing me to procrastinate for the moment about adding it here. Let's just call it good with Wild Horse Girl for this blog. : )
