A Real Book

So what do you think?

That's it--the "real" cover of my now seeming really, really real book! There are so many thing I love about this cover, not the least of which is that it's actually Seamus on the cover (no stunt dogs for Seamus--he's like the Tom Cruise of beagles).

We also have a really real Facebook page for the book and we really really hope you will both like it (small "l") and Like it (big "L") that actually requires you to click on the Like button which should be over to the right in the sidebar.

Oh and all those "really, reallys"? That's how you know me's a professionalist writer person....who just happens to be really really excited right now.

  7. The cover looks awesome! Seamus really did a great job modeling, he is extra famous now.

    1. Mandi--yes, Seamus's list of demands has gotten even longer. (He actually did a terrible job modeling originally and wouldn't sit still; then Chris sat down to eat lunch and Seamus did his "see, I'm a really cute well-behaved dog, so you should totally feed me" routine and the photographer got this picture!)

    1. Welcome Marie! Seamus is actually named after an Irish cousin of mine in Athboy, and the book opens as I return from my first trip to Ireland.
      Thanks for stopping by and I hope the book makes it's way to Ireland!
