I got a special request to make you folks some Outlander Kindle screensavers. So here ya go. The first one is a full cover of the UK version. For the others, I just concentrated on the iconic image centered in the cover of each of the US versions. I'm not quite done yet. I hope to finish up tonight after work. Enjoy.

At first Ford had formed a theory to account for this strange behavior. If human beings don't keep exercising their lips, he thought, their mouths probably seize up. After a few months' consideration and observation he abandoned this theory in favor of a new one. If they don't keep on exercising their lips, he thought, their brains start working.

Gertie: I'm pretty happy with how Autumn came out, but I'll definitely do another one for Voyager using that cover.

Autumn is one of my favorite!
I think it is my fave too. Do you have an Oberon Linda? Perhaps Tree of Life?

Great job, Jim. This is the original cover for Voyager.  and here's the original for Drums of Autumn  Do those two work better for you? We definitely appreciate what you're doing. Gertie Interesting side note: did you know that Diana HATED her origonal covers, to romance novely. She is a firm believer in the fact that her books are historical fiction, not romance. ( Read it in the outlandish companion).

I don't care much about Diana's feelings. I'm trying to create the best, most attractive art I can for the Kindle. If that means a mix of original and U.S. covers, so be it.
