I used it for the cover of Crushing It. See that puzzle here.
And now, here is the puzzle for Winging It!

Winging It Dreamcasting – Protagonists
You’ve already met 3/4 of the main characters in Crushing It (here and here). The problem is, those actors have grown up. I still think they’re the perfect dreamcasting, though, and it got me thinking: People don’t like it when the movie doesn’t match the book. So why not write the movie post-Lucky in Love trilogy? It would be set when they’re in university, in Westmeath, and I think it would be super fun.

Can’t Wait for Winging It?
Hello Readers!
If you’re as excited about Winging It as I am then you probably wish you could read it right now. (I’ve read it and I want to read it again.)
Go Pre-Order it… Seriously!
Cover Art by Pinkpiggy93
While you wait, however, you can now buy the second printing of Everdome and learn about the world that will feature in part of the book.
Will YOU be Everdome’s next hero?
S.M. Ardwur’s epic ten novel series and the world’s biggest MMORPG is a world fractured by a magical disaster and saved from destruction by a brave king and mad wizard. It is now formed of twelve floating continents with magical domes protecting them.
For thirteen lucky contestants, when a man dressed as a knight offers them the opportunity to visit their favourite fantasy world as an immersive reality show, there’s only one answer they can give: YES!
The level of impressiveness is beyond anything they can believe and some of them start to wonder why.
Abigail, James, Krista, Nicole, Richard, and Megan have to learn how to play the game and win; the fate of Everdome depends on it.
Available now!
Enjoy your reading!
Stay safe and be kind,
Éric

The return of Everdome and Parasomnia
Hello Friends, Family, and Fans;
Before being published, I thought books lasted forever. Afterall, I can still go out and by a copy of Oliver Twist, The Scarlet Pimpernel, or Pride and Prejudice.
Unfortunately, the average lifespan of a book is 5-10 years. Most books don’t sell more than 500 copies in their entire life.
Two of my novels, Everdome and Parasomnia, haven’t been performing that well, and I’ve decided to buy the rights back from the publisher. They did a great job with the books, but it’s time I try to get them in more readers hands.
What happens now?
Once the rights and files have been completely returned to me, I will republish them with some minor changes. I’m calling this a “Second Printing”.
Part of the buying of rights back was also buying out Renaissances stock. I’m going be selling those at cons and on our website. In a few months, I’ll do a full update, maybe add a short story to the back, and re-release them. Everdome will be getting a new cover to make it match more with Winging It, which partially takes place in the world.
This is new and exciting, but also kinda terrifying.
More news to come. Thank you for reading.

Cover Reveal: Winging It
If you saw me in person at Geeked Out on December 1, or at The Book’s Better Bookshop in Smith’s Falls on December 14, you would have seen a sneak peek of Jen’s next cover.
Or if you were part of our newsletter, you got to see sketches and the background. (Incidentally, sign up for our newsletter here!)
