A massive paramilitary group. A fully armed society. An exploding population of cockroaches. Amidst it all, an entomophobic pacifist who has yet to need a cybernetic limb.
Hi @Zack Jordan and everyone following along. Zack was close: the cover dimensions we use is 2:3 so a cover that is 400 x 600px (or larger) will be ideal.
I have added some helper text to the cover upload section that states these requirements.
@A.E. Berg: it’s best to upload a cover image that contains the title of the book (as opposed to a background with our default title overlaid). MS Paint could work but there are some great online tools as well like Canva.com.
Does anyone have other cover design tools that they would recommend?
A special thank you to everyone who has supported Mission 51 and me with pre-orders. I have reached my first goal of 25, but still have a long way to go! I would appreciate any help I could get!
I’m especially grateful for the kind comments I have personally received. It energizes me to write more!
I am also grateful for the beautiful community I have discovered here on Inkshares. The authors and readers are so mutually supportive!
So, to update you on the progress, I am working on three chapters at the same time, and am nearly finished with Janusia. I decided since this is a Space Opera, I better get back to that part of the storyline!
"The Crash" has been well-received! I have gotten several compliments on the characters, to my unexpected and very happy surprise. For me, creating and developing characters is the scariest part of writing Mission 51, as it is the first time I undertake this sort of writing.
In "The Crash," Juan and Juanito are Mexican migrant farmworkers, working the fields of southern Nevada through the Bracero Program in the mid-1950’s. Juanito in particular will have an important role in the story.
I’m getting a real kick out of re-writing history. LOL (I like my version better!)
