JFlah's Blunders

Yep - we're getting close. Just wrote the last sentence of my epilogue and now I'm on to formatting. Several people have asked when the next installment of  Curse of Royalty . now I'm so close that I can start planning the release. I'm about to break out the chocolate cake and fireworks. Can't wait to shove this thing out of the nest but I don't want it to be half baked either. Once it's out there, it's out there forever. Thoughts on these cover mockups? Are they eye-catching?

Yep, this pants-er will plans videos but not when writing fiction - go figure.  Did a baptism video last year shortly after our media director moved to a new job. Turned out pretty good - would've been better had we been able to figure out how to turn on the lights at the beginning instead of right at the end LOL - yeah - live and learn or you get smurfs, right? And then I did this one earlier this week. I wasn't there to capture video so we only had one camera man and it was not communicated to him that Pastor wanted to include a clip of each verbal testimony during the baptism so none of that got captured *shrug* It happens. But the camera man did an edit cut I was thankful Pastor was ok with us using in service [I flat
