Joseph Rhea's Journal

Late last night, my brother, Dave ( daverhea.net ), sent me the newest version of the book jacket he's been designing for "Novum: Rubicon" - the next installment in my scifi series. I have to tell you that it blew me away! We've been working on it for a couple of weeks now (that is to say, I give him suggestions, and he makes something, and sends it to me for feedback,) and we were both getting frustrated because nothing was working. I had this idea of what I needed the book to convey, while at the same time, have it fit with the theme of the first two book covers, which was really difficult. Well, he came up with the final solution on his own and it's brilliant. I'm really looking forward to showing you all the cover - all I need to do now is finish writing the darn thing.

I'm starting the holiday season early by putting all three of my science fiction books on sale (two are less than a dollar!) Cyberdrome  (was $5.99, now $4.99) Novum  (was $2.99, now $0.99) Novum: Exile  (was $2.99, now $0.99) This is for all ebooks from all distributors (Amazon, Apple, Sony, etc) all over the world.

I'm taking advantage of a rare two hour writing window tonight to officially start the 3rd book in my scifi series, Novum. It will be called Novum: Rubicon and it involves a long and dangerous journey into the unknown for the crew of the Rogue Wave. I'm actually hoping to make this the beginning of my own version of #NaNoWriMo ( National Novel Writing Month ) where I will attempt to complete this 30k word novella in one month. That's about three times faster than my normal so it's probably not doable with my schedule, but I will make a valiant effort. Wish me luck.

Three books finished, all with great covers by my brother Dave (DaveRhea.net) I guess that means next week I start book number four.
