New Painting – James Keziah Delaney (Tom Hardy) from Taboo

by

Over the holidays I picked up a bunch of great new photoshop brushes from Kyle T. Webster (https://www.kylebrush.com/) and I've only just now got to use them. I just finished my latest book and it's sitting with beta readers so I had time to paint :)

Here's James Delaney from Taboo, my current favourite show. If you haven't seen it, I'd highly recommend it to anyone who likes dark and violent historical fiction.

You see me as I am. All of those that I gather are damned. It's just part of a company policy of mine.

Saturday with a Smile

I had an acquaintance tell me that I only draw people being serious.

So... here's a sketch of a Hardy smile for this relaxing Saturday:

Loved this show. I have a few more of Freddie started.

I'm taking a little break from writing today. I've only written about 600 words of the 1000 that I normally like to get out in a day but eh, my mind is elsewhere and I'm not going to sweat it. I'm still new to this digital portrait painting... so many brushes to choose from! I have no idea how to use half of them and end up using the same three over and over. I should ask someone else who does digital painting what brushes they like to use.

The giveaway contest for Caged ends in less than 12 hours! So exciting. Tomorrow is the launch of the paperback edition - I know some people will be very happy about that.

Wondering which retailer pays me the most?

#1 is Payhip. Not a retailer, but an online shop that I've set up myself. This is where I make the most return on my books.

Then after that it gets a little complicated, but these are the three best choices:

At Eden Books*, I make 70% royalties for all titles.

At Smashwords, I make 60% royalties for all titles.

At Amazon, for books OVER $2.99 (USD) I make 70% royalties and for books UNDER $2.99 I make 35%

So... if the book is under $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Smashwords.

If the books is over $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Amazon.

But best of all, buy from my Payhip store :)

*Not all my titles are available at Eden yet as of 25/09/23 - I'm working on it.
