3D Cover collection for all formats of Secret SkyAs you know—and thanks again to everyone who voted for it—Secret Sky won best 2018 cover in the sci-fi/fantasy category at Kobo Writing Life. Kudos to the talented folks at JD&J Book Cover Design! And because Secret Sky was a category winner (woo hoo!) it’s now in the running for best cover overall. So, here we go again!

Secret Sky is now competing against the other category winners and runners-up for Best Overall Cover 2018. I’d appreciate your support again. It takes but a moment to vote. Just click on the contest link, wait for the page to load and then scroll down to Secret Sky and click  on its cover to cast your vote. After you vote, the current tally will be revealed.

Voting closes at midnight EST on Thursday, December 20th, so don’t delay. Please share the contest link with anyone who has a laptop, tablet or smart phone who might cast a vote for Secret Sky. Thanks in advance.

I’ll share the contest results after it closes. Fingers crossed!

Thanks to you, Secret Sky has won BEST SCI-FI/FANTASY COVER FOR 2018 with 68% of the votes! I’m not sure it’s sunk in yet. 68%!!! Excuse me while I repeat: “We did it!”

Congratulations to the designers at JD&J Book Cover Design. Secret Sky‘s cover now advances to the final round and goes up against the winners in four other categories for best overall cover for 2018.

As a special thank you for your support, I’m extending Secret Sky‘s special launch price of $0.99 until the contest closes! Get it from your favourite retailer right here. Or click here for more purchase options.

I could sure use your help!

Two posts in one day is unusual, I know, but it’s crunch time and I could sure use your help, so I hope you don’t mind.

Ebook cover for Secret SkyKobo selected Secret Sky as one of the top ten book covers for 2018 in their Sci-Fi/Fantasy category. You can imagine how excited I was to hear the news. This is a huge deal and has the potential to raise the visibility of the book, which is always a challenge.

The winner is chosen by popular vote, and voting is now underway. Secret Sky‘s cover was in the lead for a while, but has slipped behind. I could use your help to push it back out in front.

Voting is quick and easy. Click here to go to Kobo’s website,  scroll to the bottom and click on the cover for Secret Sky. The current tally will be revealed after you’ve voted. Voting closes at 11:59 EST on Thursday (That’s 9pm on the West Coast), so we don’t have a lot of time. Let’s do this!

I’d be grateful if you’d help spread the word. Share this post with friends, family, distant relatives, winged and furry friends. If they’ve got a phone, an iPad, a laptop or computer, they can cast a vote! Thanks so much. (And thanks to everyone who’s already voted.)
