My second novel has now been accepted for publication. I would like to know if anyone would like a crack at some cover art for it.

A blurb, extract, characters and location information are on the website here... rodglenn.com/sinema.aspx

I'm hoping for something very different that hints at the essence of the book - a film fanatic fantasist going on a killing spree in a remote Northumberland village.

If anyone has the time or if this story captures your interest I'd love to hear from you.

Cheers,

Rod

An update for the nice ladies and gentlemen perhaps?

[richardburton]

Thanks for the nudge, Nerf

Rusti is very kindly designing the cover art - the preliminary work is fantastic and captures the concept wonderfully. He is due to provide me with the finished design any day. I can't wait. Thanks again, Rusti.

The book is due to be published end Nov/beginning of Dec and will be available in paperback, hardback and e-book formats. I'm planning a number of signings, so hopefully some of the UK members might like to pop along to one for a meet if you're in the area.

You never know... I might be there too (moral support and all that tosh).
Just don't expect me to talk to any of you.

[richardburton]

lol I was expecting you to be there to help out again like you did last time

[Scifishocks]

Really? Do I get paid this time?

[richardburton]

Nope apart from with beer and food of course.

[Scifishocks]

Well, fair enough.

[richardburton]

Yes, it's all turning into a bit of a literary salon.
At this rate this board will soon be full of consumptive poets and writers in frilly shirts and tight trousers, brandishing quill pens and challenging each other to duels over a few pints of Absinthe.
Or maybe people with beards and corduroy jackets puffing pipes and muttering amongst themselves, in huge leather wing chairs, obviously. Attended to by wizened old men in black jackets and dandruff. Saying 'Your ma'aaaaam!'.
Or maybe not.

lol Nerf - like our local boozer, eh?

Thanks a lot, Chantale and Steann. I shall get him a black bomber jacket and shades so he can look the part!

[Scifishocks]

Oh... is it going to be t-shirts again?

[richardburton]

You loved that King of America t-shirt!
