Alright, y’all. The one year anniversary is a big milestone for me as an indie author, and I am really, really, happy with the new cover for Olawu. But I have to share some not so good news as well. You’ll see the new cover rolling out as an ebook first (most retailers have already made the switch) but the paperback and hardcover will take a little longer.

And …

Due to an error with one of my distributors, the paperback may currently be showing an outdated version of the new cover. This is an unedited, unfinished version that was sent out without my knowledge (long story), and as quick as it was uploaded, it is taking a looong time to reverse it. There’s not much I can do about it, except practice my deep breathing exercises, so that’s that.

Printing an image is a lot trickier than looking at one online, so the physical versions will take a few rounds of proofing before they’re ready. Here’s a tentative timeline for release:
