Glad you like the cover; I wasn't too keen on it at first, but it's grown on me.<br /><br />Peg, Yeah, the covers are great, aren't they? especially the one for Dead Before Morning. Yes, hitch was definitely a lucky find for me - I doubt I would have epubbed without her to hold my hand.Geraldine Evanshttp://www.geraldineevans.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878752953637981313.post-4844972535686475692011-02-12T09:22:31.322-07:002011-02-12T09:22:31.322-07:00Thanks for noticing the updated look, Ellis.

I think the ebook route is likely to be rewarding for many authors and is worth exploring.<br /><br />Brenda and Jenny, Yes, the covers are pretty striking, aren't they? I particularly like the one for Dead Before Morning. The basic photo was from iStockPhoto and the artist worked on it. Both this and the one for Down Among the Dead Men are by Rick Capadimonte (hope I've spelt his name right!), the impoverished student who spends his spare time creating book covers for my ebook formatter, Kimberly Hitchens (hitch@Q.com). I think he does a great job. I must email Kimberly and let her know of your comments. I'm sure Rick will be chuffed (as long as he doesn't put his prices up!). Can't wait to see what he produces for Death Line, which is the next book in my Rafferty series that I intend to epublish.<br /><br />Anne, I needed it explained in non-technical terms myself! I'm not a techie at all and found it so much easier because I had Kimberly holding my hand every step of the way.<br /><br />Definitely a love/hate relationship with writing. When it's going good, it's great. But when it's going bad ir's Grrr!Geraldine Evanshttp://www.geraldineevans.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878752953637981313.post-73973692053155398892011-02-11T07:19:43.228-07:002011-02-11T07:19:43.228-07:00Very informative post, Geraldine.

The piece looks good and maybe it will encourage some hesitant authors down the epub route. And authors, once you've signed up, you can check your sales on dtp.amazon/reports. It just might make for happy reading.Geraldine Evanshttp://www.geraldineevans.comnoreply@blogger.com
