There’s been some discussion on forums and the blogosphere recently about the different parts that should make up an ebook, and what order they should be in. J.A.

Oh hey! Happy Thanksgiving!
Funny how holidays creep up on you when you’re in a foreign country. We have Friday off here in Georgia, due to an Orthodox religious holiday.

Quick update and Star Wanderers cover previews

Here it is, guys! What do you think? I played around a little bit with the text this time, coloring it and putting in some noise to give it a hint of texture.
