Apparently, the cover art is going to look horrible due to the Amazon re-imaging. The leather emboss scrambles everything when it goes through, so we have to get rid of that and hope it works the second time.
I’m very annoyed and disappointed. Going to be a lame cover now.
Up-Date: We only lost the leather emboss. The paperback will still have that though. Poetry book is on its way.
About Charles Yallowitz
Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.
Oh no! You’ll just have to save the other one for when you get that big book deal and it goes to print I guess.
That really does suck. 😦

Thanks. We’re going to see what we can do. My novel’s cover looked rather hazy in that form too, but not this bad. Last minute frustrations always suck.

Just up-dated the post. We got it to work, but had to sacrifice the leather emboss. My wife tried to make it look like leather to begin with, so it still looks like a field notebook. I might take leather out of the book description to be safe.

As long as that ticket comes with royalties, I think I’ll live. 😀

Nah. I’ll just move into a padded room that locks from the outside. Cheaper than the meds because it’s only one payment. Not that I’ll thought about this at length.

What’s a retirement? I’ve heard of them, but they sound like they’re in the same category as unicorns and honest politicians.

Sounds like your ebook had been spoofed. Amazon has a way making us want to smack them in face with a sledge hammer.

I got it to work and now it’s live. Came a lot sooner than I expected. Hopefully, I get a lot of retweets, reblogs, and shares about the debut. This experiment is going to depend on a lot of word of mouth.

Thanks. We got it to work by dropping the leather look, but it was really frustrating.
