Volume Three

Okay I have decided to change the cover art to using celebrities as the subject.
For the role of Mekina (Aradia's foster sister) I have figured out that there two people who could play her.
One is Raven Symone from That's So Raven. Yes it's a Disney show. But I figured since she is an actress she should put herself into multiple roles. Playing the role of a so called reform "bad girl" is something I would like to see her do.
However, there is this one musical artist who I find fascinating.
Her name is FeFe Dobson. Yes her name is pronounced exactly something you would name a French poodle. But she is a great musician and I love get music. I dunno if she can act but get its worth a shot.
Anyhow, I am torn with the two covers.so some input would be nice.
Which would u prefer?

The first one is Raven
The second is FeFe
Which do u think is better?

New cover art!

I thought that just for an experiment I would create new cover art for volumes two - four in my book series using photos of the actors I wish to one day play the roles in the motion picture. There is no movie contract yet but it never hurts to fool around at least with cover art.
For now I have only updated them on Smashwords.com. Maybe tomorrow I will move on to kindle.
To help clarify things
I will also attach the IMDb list of the actors and their roles

Attention!

Since publishing Tales of Aradia I have gone through many phases of choosing cover art. my best friend Kimberly Mattia designed the first cover and it was really lovely. However, I was not totally satisfied with it. I wanted a cover with a bit more realism. So i branched out and started looking around. Unfortunately, i soon discovered that similar to editorial services they were pretty darn expensive. Therefore, I looked to my editor who soon suggested his own cover artist Lam Lu. I loved his art but it wasn't exactly what i was looking for. But since i didn't have any other option i went with them. However, three days ago I saw an ad in a facebook group where someone named Harris Channing was offering really good deals for cover art.

I thought what the hell and asked her to design them for me. A day later she sent me these:

magnificent huh? All she charged me for both was $45.00. The transaction was easy, fast, and very satisfactory. Therefore, I have chosen Harris Channing to be my permanent cover artist. You can look forward to seeing more of her magnificent work on the rest of the series. In fact, after the second volume is done by editing by Harrison R. Bradlow I will commission Harris to make a brand new cover!

Should have announced this sooner

Unfortunately, my best friend Kim who is my usual cover artist has decided that her schedule has become too hectic. She is still in art school and must finish her degree. My editor (being the coolest guy ever) suggested his own cover artist for the job.
His name is Lam Lu.
Volume four's cover art is an example of his art. Kim has given me her full approval for this move. Hopefully, you will all welcome the newest memeber of the Tales of Aradia the Last Witch family with enthusiasm. God knows I welcome him with his wonderful talent.
Thank u Lam for everything.
