I downloaded some very nice royalty free pictures. I also bought a photo editing program. I am hoping that I can get a nice shiny new cover out of it. I may even put a rear cover on if I figure out how. I have gotten a bit of criticism on the cover and while I didn't think it was that bad... I admit its not that good. That's what you get for doing a book on a budget, I guess.
So the cover I can fix fairly inexpensively. Not sure what to do about the spelling and grammar except go over it and over it until I catch most of the errors. The commercial service I saw to do this for you was about $2000 for a book this size. Ouch! It's going to be a long while before I even make that much.
Anyway. the second book is started. Not far in, but started. I have some ideas on the cover too, however it will be while before it matters.
