Reading
I'm doing OK with my reading challenges so far. Not brilliant, but OK. I've managed to read books for both the A to Z Reading Challenge and Beat The List. The best part is that the books have all be pretty awesome so far. Here's my update from earlier this week about my reading challenges http://www.jolinsdell.com/2018/01/2018-reading-challenges-update.html in case you missed it.
Writing
My goal or this year was to work on my writing everyday and write a minimum of 500 words a day. January didn't go quite to plan due to health issues and various other reasons but I did make some progress.
I managed to write some more of Shadow (episode 8 in the KOSMOS series), and have been working of edits of my YA thriller Do You LIKE Me?
Book Cover Designs
I really need to dedicate some more time of my book cover designs. Unfortunately I had a major set back this month when my Macbook Pro broke again... this time I don't think there's much hope in getting it fixed. At the moment this makes custom designs a bit hard to do as my other laptop doesn't have the same range of software. This is why I'll be concentrating on premade designs for the next few months until I get the problem resolved.
Publishing
Freelance Writing
I've not made any progress with this yet and so really need to get my finger out.
Blogging
I've been getting organised with my blogs over this past month and like how things are coming together. I've been posting more often to the Writers and Authors twitter profile and getting better about promoting the posts I do on this blog too.
Promo Day
Plans for this years event are coming together nicely. I have a great line up of presenters set up now and have a few awesome prizes confirmed for the giveaways too. I also now have a sponsor on board. If you'd like to know more about sponsoring the event or promoting your books/services click here. Visit http://www.promoday.net/ and register. It's free!
A Healthier Me
This is one of the hardest challenges this year, but also the one I'm doing best at so far. I've managed to workout nearly everyday so far, only skipping a couple of days when I had hospital/doctors appointments regarding my tests. Despite my cyst issues, I'm also managing to stay pretty positive.
This week I did this exercise routine everyday. Easy, didn't take very long to complete, and all I needed was a chair.
Welcome behind the scenes
I recently decided to post about how I create my premade book cover designs in a series of posts showing you some of the before and after.
Today I'm going to show you PMBC75. This is a spy theme. The awesome image of the woman came from Neo Stock Photography. They have some fantastic images in their collection.
Some additional illustration and special effects completed the design.
When you buy a professional premade cover design you are paying for more than just the end result. A cover designer spends a large amount of time searching for images to use, and editing them to give you a unique design. You pay for their time, experience and skills.
PMBC75 is available now for €50 (ebook cover), €100 (ebook and print wrap package). Email now to order. Once a cover is sold it is never sold again.
Welcome behind the scenes
I've been asked by a few people about how I create my premade book cover designs, and so thought I'd do a series of posts to show you some of the before and after.
Today I'm going to show you PMBC73. This is a steampunk theme. The images used all came from www.pixabay.com. This is one of my favourite sites for getting images as they have such a wide variety of great images available for free commercial use.
I liked the image of the chimney sweep, but decided to edit out the brush. The gears were layered on to make up the background, and the clock element became a nice point of interest. I also added in a few special effects to complete the look.

PMBC73 is available now for €50 (ebook cover), €100 (ebook and print wrap package). Email now to order. Once a cover is sold it is never sold again.
