Snow Day!

Forgive me for the gush of emotion here … but … I’m crying.

I can’t help it. Can’t wait to read those warm words bound between snow-decorated pages.

God bless you, my friend.

I love it~ I’m feeling so much joy for you, Billy. Merry Christmas!

The cover absolutely makes me want to pick up your book, buy it, and rush home to read it. It’s very evocative of simpler days and the promise of a good read.

I love the cover!!

I love the cover! I’m excited about your book, and can hardly wait until it’s available.

We hardly had snow during the Blizzard of 2009. What we did have, though, sure caused major problems. Towns outside of ours had much more snow than we had, and their situation is even worse. Thousands in our county are still without electricity.

I much prefer snowy scenes as depicted on your book cover. Just looking at it makes me smile.

Merry Christmas to you, Billy. May you and your family have a wonderful Christmas, and a blessed New Year.

Looks great, Billy. Reminds me of one of those paintings by Brueghel the Elder (or is it the Younger?).

My daughter and I made snow angels just two days ago. This is a book, even if I’d never heard of the author or read an excerpt, I’d pick up off the shelf based on that picture alone.

Very cool!

LOVE it! Very nice Billy!

Love it! I want to step into the picture and join in the fun.

That, my friend, is a pretty sweet book cover. In fact, dare I say, it could bring the beat down on many weaker book covers who might be unfortunate enough to be shelved next to it.

Fantastic, Billy. How exciting. What a great Christmas present.

Merry Christmas.

It’s just right! Especially with those snow angels!

Aren’t you just tickled to see your name in print like that?

It’s AWESOME! I can’t wait to see it live and in person! What a GREAT Christmas gift for you and your family! And God even arranged for a snow day to unveil it. How providential was that?!

I think I’m a little girl again. Now that’s one powerful cover! I hope you’ll save one for me!

Snow Angels – children – it doesn’t get better than that.
~Hugs and Heartwarming Holdays . . . a wonderful and unexpected gift.

HUGS FROM MAINE

My dream is to feel what you are feeling right now, Billie.
I am so excited and happy for you. I love the cover and can’t wait to read your book.

Have a magical holiday season.
Merry Christmas

That is GORGEOUS, Billy! You must be so excited. I know I am! When is your release date? Will it be out for next fall/Christmas? That would be perfect.

What a great cover! And what a great Christmas present. Enjoy!

I’m glad that your hard work [is it? because writing seems so easy for you ]….is coming into fruition. Beautiful brother Billy and I just prayed for the Lord to bless you and many will pick up a copy and be encouraged by you. Seeing those kids having a blast with snow, just reminded me of how God wants us to be like them, childlike in faith and remaining joyful….because He has set us free…our sins as white as snow! Merry Christmas to you and God bless and keep you always.

I think it’s a beautiful cover. I am especially pleased and proud to see your name all centered right there in the middle. Represent!

The cover looks awesome, but it is what will lie within those pages that has me excited.

Be blessed this Christmas, my brother from the other side of the country!

Awesome, awesome, awesome!!! Cannot wait to read the words….!! What ahuge blessing you have been to so many…it’s so cool to see you be blessed in return.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

COOL!!!

Snow angels! I love it!

I think it looks great, Billy! I can’t wait to buy it. That cover would catch my eye in a store for sure. Congrats!

I LOVE it! Reminds me of a painting. Like the folk art from 19th century New England? I can’t remember the artist. But just like some have commented, I’d pick it up for the cover alone. Even if I didn’t know and love the author.

So happy for you!

LOVE it. SO much. And yeah – I’d pick it up just from the cover.

Oh my word. That’s one of the most amazing covers I’ve ever seen in my life. Wowzers.

I am SO excited for you!!!! I can’t wait for the release.

That’s awesome! I think I congratulated you on Twitter, but here it is in comment form! It looks awesome, and I wish you the best of luck. You’ve earned it.

Boy, does that bring back memories! Talk about “days of yore” – been a very long time since I made a snow angel or flew down a hill on a sled. Great cover, Billy.

Perhaps it’s not the cover in and of itself that draws me to the book, but the ever-growing knowledge of its author. I reckon you are one of those kids flapping away in the snow…

Blessings.

Okay, thanks Peter. Now you can see the cover better. Kewl.

It is pretty cool seeing your name in print like that, huh? Awesome.

So happy for you Billy…can’t wait to read a copy. The art work is perfect…Merry Christmas!

That’s amazing!! I can’t believe you have the cover art already! When is the book coming out again? Congrats, Billy, what an awesome gift before the holidays!

Just seeing your name on that cover……Hmmmh! I love the blue on it too. And that your name is precisely placed on that silver star! Congratulations!

Great, now I have a picture to go along with a book I can’t read yet!
Looks beautiful!

Oh, I love it! And it’s super easy to read the title, which is important. Can’t wait to see it on the shelves, Billy! Congrats!

What a wonderful cover for a book! Sure takes me down memory lane. Congratulations and blessings for Christmas and the New Year!

Very cool. Congratulations. I’ll buy a copy! (Or trade you one of mine!)

absolutely wonderful!! and what perfect timing!! my heart is so very happy for you! (hey, wait a minute… i thought postal employees were daunted by nothing–neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow….???)

Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can’t wait to read it!!

Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Melanie

CONGRATULATIONS! That’s a gorgeous cover! I was telling Katdish that I think it has all the softness of your words. I can’t wait to get my hands on it.

I love it!!!!!!! I especially love the snow angels! Congratulations, Billy!

It puts me in mind of the MBC hill…isn’t it fun how everyone comes out to sled and play together in the snow? I can’t wait to have that book in my hands…waiting on pins and needles over here! (Any hint of when we might be able to get it, or preorder, or something?)
