I'm published!



The eBook and paperback versions are available. I'm so excited! You can go and buy it here: 1001 First Lines. It's up at Amazon, that gives me such a buzz. It's what I've been working on for over six months and I couldn't believe it when I got it in my hands. Here's the blurb:

"It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents, except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the house-tops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness."- Paul Clifford by Edward George Bulwer-Lytton

"Call me Ishmael." -Moby Dick by Herman Melville

"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen." -1984 by George Orwell

Have you ever wondered which novels contain the most famous opening lines? Or how the writers of Science Fiction compare to those of Romance? Now you can compare for yourself, with 1001 of the best and worst First Lines from fifteen
genres.

1001 First Lines is for the writers and the readers of the world, providing inspiration and instruction, with a checklist of titles to tick off as you go.


Secondly: My business in book cover design has been coming along really well. I'm a book cover designer for self published authors mostly, although I've been getting in touch with publishers.  I'm over at Books @ Scarlett Rugers.com. I'm also really affordable, with a current promotion running at 30 authors for $50! Once the 30 spots are taken though that's it, so get in quick

What a huge year it's been so far!
