About Books

Ask, and you shall receive. What did I spy in my inbox today? The new cover for Jinx! Out of the three covers, I think this one is my favorite — or maybe that’s just because I’m excited about folks being able to read the book soon.

Well, okay, not soon. But Sept. 2 will be here before you know it. Can anyone else believe it’s almost Easter? It seems like yesterday I was taking down my Christmas tree.

Not sure if I made this clear or not, but Jinx is coming out as a mass market paperback. Those are the smaller paperbacks. I think it will be a good switch for me, as the mass markets are only $7-8, instead of the $14 of the trade paperbacks. Anyway, I’m hoping the cheaper price will get more folks to try the books and result in more sales — which would mean I could write more Bigtime adventures.

Guess we’ll see in September! :ww:

And here’s the cover for the mass market re-release of Hot Mama (August).

Basically, both covers look like the trade originals for Karma Girl and Hot Mama — only with real people on the cover and a more life-like skyline in the background.

And it looks like they made my name a lot bigger on the cover, although you can’t really tell from this post. That’s always nice. 😉

Although, I imagine the name thing will even out, since the mass market books are significantly smaller than the trade paperbacks. I guess we’ll see in a couple more months.

So, I finally got the new cover art for the mass market re-releases of Karma Girl (due out in July) and Hot Mama (August). Here they are.

From what I’ve been told, the new cover for Jinx (September) will also look something like these. My publisher should be sending the art work to me pretty soon.

When I get the cover for that book, I’ll post it on the blog, too — and start working on getting the all-important Jinx bookmarks made.

Just admit it — you know you want a Jinx bookmark to add to your Bigtime bookmark collection. 😎
