How Much Do Book Covers Matter..

Posted July 30, 2015 by Marsha in Discussion Post / 0 Comments

Lately when I browse through Amazon or even my local Wal-Mart on the look out for new and interesting books – I could swear I’m seeing double or even triple. I’m seeing books with the same cover.  And to be frank – I don’t like it. Book covers are often a way that I identify […]

June 14th is National Bourbon Day.  Yeah, it’s true… this amazing booze has it’s own personal day of celebration. I don’t know why – but for me when I think of bourbon I think of steamy Southern nights – a mystery – or simply sitting on the deck enjoying the sunset. There’s no bad reason […]
