Thank you again, everyone! I had so much fun here, and congratulations to the winner of my ebook, I hope you enjoy it! Everyone else, the book is only $2.99 right now on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and All Romance Ebooks. Check it out then come find me and let me know what you thought!,
Molly, since I had total control of the project, the casting, costuming, sets, everything, I think my model, Derek, is as close to my hero, Gideon, as possible. Yes he does have dark hair and so does she. It isn't easy to find someone, I am currently casting for Perry, my next hero, and it's a challenge. I hope you like him. I am a bit of a cover anon and also don't like when publishers reuse imagery on other covers.
I can't wait for you to see the book Renee! I'm looking forward to hearing what you and my other readers think about it! It's so important to me to get feedback from actual readers.
Thank you Carolyn. :)
That's an interesting idea Sandra, most of my refers run through the book quickly to see all the images first, then go back to read the story the second time. :) You will have to let me know how that works if you do decide to read it!
Thank you Jennifer!! I hope you enjoy it. :)
I hope you get a chance to Jennifer! Good luck in the giveaway!
LOL! Deb OKAY!!!
Thank you Tracie! Best wishes to you!
THANK YOU EVERYOINE for stopping by today! I'm so sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I was at a photo conference today and for whatever reason I could not comment on the blog from my phone...But I was reading and loved every one of the comments, You guys are fantastic and I wish you all good luck in the giveaway!!
Oh yes, Mary, soundtracks on ebooks are fun. I originally wanted to package the book as an app with a soundtrack as well, but that would have limited the number of people who could get it much more than just being an ebook now so I decided to leave the soundtrack off.
Thank you SO MUCH Carla, it was very important to me that the images be tastefully done but still enticing and beautiful, so for you to see that means a lot.
Kati, you are sweet and hilarious. Thank you so much.
Vicki the paperback format looks about the same as the Kindle screen and we did lots of testing with the editing of the images in rode to get them right so that they would look good on the Kindle as well as other e-Ink readers. It was important to me to make sure the images would look good on every reader.
Cate that is so flattering! I hope you found something wonderful at your local bookstore, but unfortunately for now my book os only available online and soon at the Tattered Cover in Denver because I have to submit it to independent bookstores one at a time. It is a BIG job.
Thank you Margaret I hope you enjoy it.
LOL! Alyson we love imagination, oh the possibilities!!
Thank you Carla! I certainly hope so!
That's right Anna, this is one of the first, and I say one of because there is a possibility there is one I haven't heard of, but I haven't seen another, and the biggest bookstore in Denver hasn't seen anything like it either, they are very excited to carry the book because it is SO unique.
I hope it does make the story more meaningful Lisa, the readers I have spoken with tell me that the images make the characters that much more real to them, and they truly see them and feel for them through the images which I think id fantastic.
Thank you very much Marjorie, I am looking forward to seeing all the reactions from it, I have received a lot of positive responses.
Lisa I hope you get a chance to see it, and be sure to some find me and tell me what you think, I love to talk with readers (about the good and the bad)
Renanda thank you for your comment, it's true that when we read books we easily fill in the blanks of what our characters looks like based on the descriptions given, I hope my Roxleigh can live up to yours. :)
Beth thank you, I hope you enjoy it. I find it interesting to read scenes now with the illustrations because some of them changed once I actually saw them come to life in my studio.
Thank you Barbara!
Thank you Diane! Good luck in the giveaway!
That's great Kathleen! I hope you like it!
Thank you May!! I'm so glad you find it new and interesting, I hope you like it!
Wow Gina! Thank you, I'm blushing a little now. :)
Thank you Janice, good luck in the giveaway!
Thanks Cece! Good luck in the giveaway!
Thank you Wilma, I think they do make the book that much more interesting.
Good luck in the giveaway Nancy! Thank you!.
I hear you Joanne! I know this concept is completely new and it is meant for readers only just because to print a novel with illustrations is so expensive. The book is available as a trade paperback from Amazon, but because of the cost, it is $21.95 and does not have nearly as many images as the ebook does. Of course it does not sell very well because it is so expensive, but I did want there to at least be a way to get it out there for readers who are diehard fans of paperback.
Thank you Shirley! You will have to let me know what you think if you read it!
Thank you so much G. that means a lot to me. :)
Yay! G S I hope you love it!
That's great Ilona, I am so glad to hear you like the concept.
Thank you Patti!! I love to raise the bar and try new things, so this is just one more way to make that happen.
