I know I’m supposed to make a dramatic scene of this. Do a countdown. Play coy, plant a few red herrings. Make a big all-night thing of  this cover reveal.

But that’s not my style.

So here’s the e-book cover for my forthcoming novella, Hell’s Marshal, Book One in the Hell’s Butcher Series.

This awesomeness (which is at reduced resolution here) is the work of Michelle Johnson at Blue Sky Design, who also did chapter fleurons, bookmarks, Facebook and Twitter covers, and the wrap for the print copies. Look her up on Facebook HERE.

This is also a great time to mention my super editor, Jennifer Wiers Severino at Twitching Pen Editing, without whom Hell’s Marshal would still be held together with bubble gum and duct tape. She actually recommended Michelle to me, and I ended up with a great, great team working on this.

So I guess all that remains is a launch date. I’m targeting mid-April and will announce the actual date once I am sure of it.

Thanks for looking. I hope you’re as excited about this book as I am!
