I think being all under the same name is great ~ shows your a multi-genre author, and that's something to be proud of.<br /><br />Tina @ <a href="http://kmdlifeisgood.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Life is Good</a><br />A to Z Team @ <a href="http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com" rel="nofollow">Blogging From A to Z April Challenge 2014</a>Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08925730745204736744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7844784446912062670.post-62871593148229362272014-02-17T16:05:45.559-08:002014-02-17T16:05:45.559-08:00I think you're making the right move. Be sure ...I think you're making the right move. Be sure to put links to all your books...in all your books. Updating files can take hours..let alone re-doing a cover.

And I didn't realize it was you. <br /><br />Hands down the best improvement is the heart cover of the Young books.<br /><br />You're right on the pseudonyms. Stephen King used them for the Bachmann books because the publisher thought people wouldn't believe one writer could put out so many books at once. Anne Rice used them on her erotica because (I think) it was erotica. JK Rowling used it to see if she could get fair reviews (and then "accidentally" let it out that she was the author.) In all cases, once the publisher realized they could capitalize on the brand without backlash, they republished under their names.<br /><br />So... I think you should re-do the covers and say "PT Dilloway, writing as Claire LaChance." Not that you'll mind redoing 10 covers, right?<br /><br />You should do more posts on cover design. These are awesome. Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.com
