Just like there was a process to writing the book, there was a process to the art work and designing the cover for The Blackbird Ballad. It started just after finishing the first draft of the book, and with a gift from a young boy who was my first and strongest cheerleader.

Pre-orders for my book, The Blackbird Ballad, are live! This a pretty vital part of the publication process, and it does not go unnoticed that ordering a book before it comes out is a huge vote of confidence. As a thank you, Emily and I have worked out a special pre-order bonus.
