Hey all,

Hope you all had a good weekend. I forgot to show you guys the cover for the next book in my Van Diemen's Valley series.

I absolutely love how creepy it is.

Thanks. I can't take any credit for it (except the concept idea). The artist who did it does incredible work.

Thanks. I think it's pretty awesome. It's my favourite book of the series too.

That is really awesome. We need to get you into the Readings Children Book shop,

[–] danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago

They have openings at specific times of the year. I keep forgetting to email them when they're open.

Geez that legit reminds me of a nightmare I had this morning. I can't handle spooky anymore. Even "Invasion of the Blue Lights" freaks me out to think about. Having said that, the artwork is really fantastic.

It's pretty freaky. He did a great job.

Gorgeous! Those searchlight eyes! Is it available to purchase yet?

[–] danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Just getting a final edit done and then I'll get it ready to release. Hopefully by the end of the month :-)
