The Cover For the First Jax Jensen Novel!

1/22/2016

I am extremely excited to share the cover for the first full length Jax Jensen novel. That's right! Not just a short story... a full length novel that is set after the short stories. Let me know what you think of it below, it was made by my very talented friend Gary. Check out more of his work here.

I really feel like Gary did an excellent job capturing the hustle of a big city, where this novel takes place, and does a good job leaving a sense of wonder and a feeling of expanse that ideally is engaging enough to capture reader's attention.

What do you think of the cover? What are some of your favorite covers that you've seen, or made yourself!

Share in the comments below I'd love to hear input.

Thank you. Keep writing!

    POSTING SCHEDULE

    I will do my best to be posting new content every Wednesday. Tentatively dubbed "Workshop Wednesday" I will relatively unedited practice pieces I create to work on certain aspects of the writing craft. Bear in mind military service and training schedules are unpredictable and may be cause for the occasional late post.

    In the future I plan to have a set schedule for posting about other writing-related things, or topics in my interest field such as Table Top War Gaming and Video Games.

    ​Thank you for your support and feedback!
