NO! I hear you cry. Do not pop those balloons!
But relax – I'll have you know that beneath these balloons, I am fully clothed from head to toe, as all good Englishmen should be, in Harris Tweed. And let me tell you, these boxer shorts are nothing if not itchy.
But enough blather.
It's Time to reveal the Shiny New Cover for Trespass
I haven't said much about this so far, but Trespass has been picked up by Seattle-based publisher, Booktrope. The new edition has had a thorough edit, an oil change, and a couple of sprockets have been reground, but more importantly, the new edition will be more sumptuously laid out and presented, including a brand new cover from the talented Greg Simanson.
This book has been through a couple of cover versions, but it's great that Trespass finally has the professional cover it deserves. I'm really thrilled with it, and I hope you approve.

As always, comments are very welcome. And if you know someone who might dig this cover, please feel free to share it.
I would hate for you to miss the official launch of this new edition, especially as I'll be doing my best to wangle some freebies and special offers.
Pop your email address in the form below and I'll make sure you're kept in the loop.

Congratulations! That’s a very striking cover. Very cool!
Thanks Deb – that’s really great to hear. The design is just what I wanted.
Wow! Just wow!
Love this cover. So beautiful and striking.
I have totally missed that it was picked up by a publisher. When did that happen?
Will the next book in the series be published by them too?
Congratulations with both cover and your publishing deal! 😀
Hope they know they have a true gem on their hands.
Thanks Anita – that means a lot coming from you – partly because you’re an illustrator but also, it’s great that someone who’s read the book likes the new cover. So double thanks are in order. Yeah – I haven’t made much fuss about the publisher because it all seemed a bit surreal, but now it’s nearing completion I’ll be letting folks know. We’ll see how this relaunch goes and then I’ll decide about how to publish the next book. Relaunching Trespass has slowed down my new writing for a while – I need to do some serious catching up!
That is a gorgeous, very striking cover. Congratulations!
Thank you Chelsea – you’re very kind to take the time to comment. If you’d like to know more, please don’t hesitate to ask.
