The Theo Newton Trilogy. Almost three years since I started out on storyboarding and the final part of the series is out soon. I’m pleased with how the final set of covers turned out, the green is very green, but it stands out because of it. Too bold a move?

Author copy arrived today of what I hope will be the final cover design for my first novel, I’m really happy with how this turned out. There is lots of fine detail to be examined (Such as the title of book tree is on there) and the gloss finish give it a quality feel.

Mark P. Smith (Author) @markpsmithauthor.bsky.social · 02/01/2026

An incredible review on Amazon. You never know, when you have an idea for a story, that anyone else will enjoy it. So to see such clear enjoyment from something I created is amazing, but that they took the time to write their thoughts means a lot. Thank You 🙏

Mark P. Smith (Author) @markpsmithauthor.bsky.social · 29/12/2025

Think a cover redesign is order. These are the concepts so far. I’ve been told my previous covers were not clear about the genre or target age.

One of my friends has already read the book to their child “It captures the true meaning of Christmas, that of being kind, having belief with hope and joy. The story is well paced, the family is very believable and having a child with disabilities as a character very inclusive” amzn.eu/d/38o3KYw

I recently turned 49. Today I collected my first ever pair of prescription glasses. They are a ‘relatively’ mild strength for reading, but time is starting to catch up with me. Tomorrow I’m going to go shopping for some comfy slippers.

The Spey Fumare Cask Strength is the winner for me. I really wanted to enjoy the Spey 12 year old, but it needs a touch more ABV. It has a lot of potential. #SpeysideDistillery
