Good day, everyone!
I hope your summer is gracefully sliding into a much-welcome autumn!
I’d like to share the revised book cover (front, back, and spine) for my romance novel, Champagne Waves & Sailing Ships. I’d love to hear your comments and suggestions on what works and what could be improved. Don’t worry, I’m not thin-skinned and actually welcome ALL kinds of critique. Iron sharpens iron, right?
This book cover will replace the one currently on my website (https://bpmurphybooks.com/). Please keep in mind my target audience for this second-chance-at-love story: Boomers, Gen X, and older Millennials. The novel is also authored by a Christian man who just turned 71. So, Taylor Sheridan won’t be making a movie out of this manuscript anytime soon!
Lastly, I’m working through the final rewrite and plan to have it published by the end of the year. However, like everything else, it’s all in God’s timing!
Thank you in advance for your continuing support and encouragement!
“As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning. When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held his hands up—one on one side, one on the other—so that his hands remained steady till sunset. So Joshua overcame the Amalekite army with the sword.” (Exodus 17:11-13)
