It was the best of covers. It was the worst of covers… I revealed this book cover on social media last month, but I didn’t reveal the funny thing that happened during the design process. We Three Kings follows the Weise/Wise family as three different generations of heroes make their fortunes through gold, frankincense, and […]
Cover Reveal and Coming Soon!
So, this isn’t the first time I’ve talked about covers here on the Inspy blog. A few years ago (which feels like forever) I talked about The Cowboy’s Twins and how they had to mirror image the hero Jax so his scar wasn’t showing, which in turn made the babies he was holding look odd […]
