A new logo for Ocular, a Wellington based video and website production company. Also came up with the tagline ‘be seen’. Aside from Ocular’s core products Stevo Rourke and Neil O’Styke offer a wealth of knowledge how to be seen on the web. Great people to work with, never a dull moment!

Will start my trip that will eventually bring me to St Louis and Bouchercon2011 this weekend. But first two weeks in The Netherlands, visiting family, friends, and a few clients. It is NOT a holiday, as some people think. I’ll be working until I leave for my trip to the US. First stop Durango, Colorado - digging shallow graves in Blake Crouch’s back yard. Sharing a room with Blake and Marcus in St Louis. If it becomes Hangover 3 I will probably be most similar to Zach Galifianakis. Will be back in Wellington 24 September.

The above is a poster I designed for Bouchercon2011. The central element of the poster also features on a t-shirt design.

Out now! THUG, by J E Medrick, episode 5 of the first season of the Icarus Helix series. Starting to sound like a broken record here, but this series just gets better and better and better. And decidedly darker. Buy THUG from Amazon today, and while you’re at it don’t forget to buy the first four episodes - CHEAT, LIAR, COWARD, and THIEF.

Diane Capri is by no means someone new on the block. Her Judge Wilhelmina Carson series was traditionally published to great commercial and critical acclaim about a decade ago. Now - finally - the series is available as ebooks. Go to Amazon and buy Carla’s Conspiracy, George’s Game, Harper’s Hell, and Kate’s Killing. Then visit www.dianecapri.com, sign up, and you’ll receive a free copy of the short story Darla’s Deceit.

The Last Witness is the second installment of the Lou Mason series by Joel Goldman. If you like a Grisham yarn mixed with a strong dash of Connelly than this one will go down like a nicely spiked iced tea on a blistering hot afternoon. Highly recommended summer reading! Buy The Last Witness from Amazon today.

The interview by Joe D’Agnese reminded me of the covers I designed about a year ago as a pitch to Ron Rash, an author whose work I greatly admire, and would love to design for. He found the illustrations wonderful, graciously allowed me to publish them on my website, and referred me to his agent. Which sadly is where the story ended. Following are a 5 of the 9 covers I designed, all stories part of Chemistry and Other Stories, available from Amazon. Buy this collection - it is a wonderful introduction to Rash’s amazing stories set in the Appalachians. (No endorsement by Ron Rash, his agent or his publisher is implied).
