Whew!
So my plan next year is to start on January 2nd — that will give us thirty full days showcasing new covers for old, ending on a date that isn’t just random.
Hope you’ve enjoyed! Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
Axeman’s Jazz?? How can they get away with such a title, when the Ray Celestin book (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Axemans-Jazz-author-Celestin-2014/dp/B00QCIOUR8/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1517938088&sr=1-5&keywords=the+axemans+jazz&dpID=41lf8JMYLPL&preST=_SY344_BO1,204,203,200_QL70_&dpSrc=srch) exists?
Well, they can get away with it because (a) titles can’t be copyrighted and are very rarely trademarked, and (b) Julie Smith’s novel was originally published in 1991, so if anyone’s got claim to the title, it’s her, not Celestin.
…and trade-pubbed with that title, too. (n.b.: client!)
(a) yeah I knew that but …
(b) coo – okay that’s fair enough then!
In fact, we’ve now had two new covers for Love Thy Sister, and it’s still not getting much better. At least the latest cover doesn’t leave you asking “Is the protagonist an incestuous bisexual cougar pedo or something?” though there’s also still no obvious reason (in any of the available preview chapters anyway) why it should have a little prepubescent child’s silhouette on it; everybody in those chapters is a twenty-something or older.
Little fish big fish has surely done an impressive volte-face.
