Our Book Trailer is Done!

1/31/2013

To see the trailer for Last Ghost at Gettysburg, click on that title on my homepage. The trailer was a collaborative effort: I wrote the text, picked the music and found most of the images: my daughter Caroline added some other images (and the cool "lightning" sequence as a segue between past and present), then edited the music, images and text. I think you'll agree she did a great job. Also, my school's computer teacher, Deb Perry, did the Photoshop on the image of T.J., LouAnne and Bortnicker, for which 3 of our students graciously volunteered.

Soon it will be seen on Facebook and YouTube. Hope you like it!

After a little trial and error, artist Lynsee Lauritsen and I arrived at this image for our cover. The hardest thing was the shadowing and tinting to give a night effect while maintaining the proper amount of detail. I hope you'll agree that Lynsee did a great job. I always wanted the mounted rider on the rearing horse, but the Confederate flag was purely her idea-a great touch.

You can find my latest Stadia Collector feature, "Stadia Articles Prompt Discussion", in the January 11 issue of Sports Collector's Digest. It's about some interesting responses I've received from the League Park and KC Municipal features from last year, along with a humorous Fenway discovery tale. As usual, my editor, Tom Bartsch, did a great job on the layout. Hope you like it. Check out SCD online if you aren't a subscriber. By the way, Pitchers and Catchers isn't far off!
