Inspiration for the Cover

     The inspiration for the Phoenix cover was from the London Olympics. If you watched it, I think it was the opening ceremony that had a fiery flaming phoenix. Check out the picture below.

     Take away the stadium and add the mountains:

Trial Cover Revealed!

     Trial cover is going to be revealed! Now what I mean by trial cover is a cover that will most likely change as we make the final touches. So excited! Check it out below:

 

     It's the byline that is most likely to change since I don't like how it is at the moment. The colors and fonts don't match, but that should be a quick fix.
     The cover isn't how I originally pictured it. I just wanted a phoenix feather on fire drifting down to the ground with trees and mountains. But I like this just as much, if not better. Mainly because it's special and unique and... mine!

Cover Soon To Be Revealed!

     I've recently gotten word that the cover for phoenix will be revealed within the next few weeks! I'm so excited! I had hoped to get it last month, but it is what it is.
     Since I'm still waiting on the cover the release date of Phoenix has been pushed back to sometime in October. Patience has never been one of my virtues, so I'm a little impatient to get this going. There's not a lot I can do, but I try.
     The school year is up and running again as well. Joy. This year will be my first year of home schooling. All of my friends are already in school. Ah well, at least the school has a system so I can go to homecoming.
     I'll give you a little peek of Phoenix. In Phoenix Rakel is a social outcast with no friends. In a little twist she ends up being at the top of the food chain instead of the bottom. Now how does that happen...? Sorry, can't say.
     I hope everyone had a wonderful summer! I'll be keeping you posted on Phoenix. ;)

Summer Buzz

     How is everyone else's summer going? Hopefully good. I know I always look forward to the summer. A nice time to just chill and relax. And attempt to get a tan (Irish heritage makes it hard to be anything but snow white). But really summer is just about taking a break and having fun.
     Most people back home probably go to the beach or the pool for their summer. Sometimes I wish my summer was that laid back. Not that I don't like my summers, they just usually end up... rushed. I have the majority of my family living in England, so I usually go there to visit them.
     One of my brothers also lives there and he's still in school. English schools get out end of July-ish, whereas schools back home get out early June. That in between time I normally end up writing and reading. Then we get to the family visits and the small vacation time.
     In just a few days I'm going back home to America. I haven't seen my baby brother in over two months so I can't to get back! School's starting back up again at the end of August. I'm going to be home schooled this year so I have no idea when I'll be restarting school.It should be fun though. My awesome cousin Patrick is going to be home schooled with me (he was home schooled last year as well). Patrick's only eight, but he is freaking awesome. If you met him you'd understand.

 He does talk a lot as well, as you might be able to imagine from this photo.

 He's going to be a heart breaker when he's older. Only he's too sweet and kind to hurt any girls.

See more pictures of Patrick at http://agencyprotalent.com/patrickdonovan#patrick And yes, he is a model/actor.

Hope everyone has been having a wonderful summer!
