Today is March's contribution to Alex Cavanaugh's Insecure Writers Support Group.

Why makes me an insecure writer this month?

Well, despite my ongoing health problems t..and that the resulting medications hat leave me tired all the time, I still managed to finish writing  one of my reader  magnets; a short story that’s a retelling of the terminator movie spun up as an urban fantasy. I’m pretty proud of it, and the editor really enjoyed it, so I’m happy. 

I settled on the cover for my debut Urban Fantasy quite a while ago, But some of you asked for a cover reveal, so here it is.
My hope is that the cover portrays  both a sense of magic and science, both of which are a major part of the story.

Thanks for reading.

March 1 question - Have you ever read a line in novel or a clever plot twist that caused you to have author envy?

Of course I have, it's one of the reasons I'm such a slow writer. I read someone else's words, then I have to step away from  the laptop for a day or two before I can write again. 

Thanks for stopping by.

    I'm facing some medical issues of my own. Hoping I'll be around to write my next novel. (Sorry I missed making return visits for IWSG. My internet went out for over 40 hours.)
