Ok… So quite a break. Not that anyone really cares that much.
The good news is that I have collected a good few new book covers. Let’s just say that with the ‘glory’ of a certain vampire love story that seems to be so popular these days there are some very good Sci-fi Romance books floating around!
So updates should start again on Monday 3rd August 2009.
Looking forward to starting again! So should see a few website updates too while I try to make this thing look not so much like a wordpress blog… which it is, but you know what I mean.
Yours,
– Good Show Sir

Frank Comments: The cover picture makes me think of folks bringing knives to a gun fight, but isn’t exactly a situation from the story, although you can see the characters there: the antagonist, the girl, the adventurer, and some of the nameless drug addicts who do the antagonist’s dirty work.

April’s Art Direction: So there’s this cosmic checkerboard, right? And on it we’ll have Alexander the Great, a Samurai, and Napoleon just kind of chilling out, each in their own separate square, completely unaware of anything around them.Now we just sit back and wait for the money to roll in.

Good Show Sir Comments:
There once was a damsel named Janet
Who came from a world called Big Planet
The gravity well
Caused her boobies to swell
But the Space Sheep is here so don’t ban it

The great artists of our time had a formula for where the human eye would automatically look to when presented with a work of art. At that precise point I know exactly what we need. A huge horse’s head, in pain, as it gets speared by a crazed redhead.
