Next novel, Times of Trial, possible book cover
This is a possible cover to my next novel, Times of Trial, but it probably could use some tweaking or something altogether different. I could use some feedback if anyone’s willing to give me some. I would appreciate it. The novel is a parallel novel to Times of Trouble. A preacher and his family,…
