OMG I was JUST thinking about you yesterday wondering how you were doing. I'm glad that you are doing so much better after backing away. Your health always comes first. *hugs*

*smashes the pre-order button* It sounds so good! (Now wondering if I need to watch Tiger King...)

I mean, Tiger King is super-addictive trash - but like most of my in-mind adaptations ("Flex" was obviously Breaking Bad, "Sol Majestic" was, I kid you not, the Muppet Show), it's gonna diverge wildly.

Very good to see you back on the inter-webs, Ferrett! I'm glad your mom is doing well, and I'm really looking forward to "Dragon Kings." (already pre-ordered, natch!). Who is your cover artist? I think you scored when you found them!

My artist is Joe Requeza at https://www.artstation.com/joerequeza - he's not cheap, but man is he pumping out some great work. I'll have a reveal for the second cover soon.

And thanks for pre-ordering!

I will check him out. He looks to me like an artist worth investing in. "Cheap" only goes so far. A knowledgeable pro will sell books for you. People do judge books by their covers, so the cover art is a number-one wise investment. Best wishes, and I'm really looking forward to reading your books!

Ferret! Great to hear from you again! I had also recently checked on you lately when I was looking for something to read, hoping for a book or announcement or anything! Book has been pre-ordered! I'll send you an email to catch up. I'm incredibly interested to hear more about your self publishing adventures. - GermW

Kindle's a no-go for me, sadly, but I'll keep a eye out for other options down the road.

Understood. That'll depend heavily on how the book does, which means probably not - but who knows?

I hope it's as good as we both hope it is. :)
