Hello all, I need your help! I have chosen someone to help me overhaul my site but I need opinions on what direction to take the design. Please stop by Psychotic State Book Reviews (http://www.psychoticstate.net/2012/09/changes-coming.html) and leave me a comment with your suggestions, ideas, etc. I would greatly appreciate it. Happy Wednesday!

I only plug my book or stories about every three blog posts or so. Does that seem about right. I'm on blogger, and I haven't figured out how to post a cover of my book on the intro page. Do I go to "design" and do it there? My blog is called Guerrilla Warfare For Writers (special weapons and tactics):
