yes. the tattoo is real. :)

I made a deal with some friends that if I got a book published I'd get a tattoo. :)

The book has Ernest Hemingway's ghost in it, so it seemed appropriate to have a Hemingway tattoo. That's his autograph. :)

I'd pick that off the shelves for a closer look. Very nicely done.

Maryn, happy for you

Yeah, those ghostly-looking chaps on the far ends of the bench would make me go for the blurb at least.

CGs!

Thanks everyone!

is the back cover copy:
His job is unfulfilling, his girlfriend controlling, his family has disowned him, and a loan shark is circling: Eric Bastien's life is a mess. Then, as a work day ends on a high, his love life hits the skids, and he gets the phone call from his estranged mother that changes everything. "Your father's dead." Life hands Eric a great opportunity, an awkward family reunion, and an ultimatum -- if he wants his inheritance, he has to take a road trip to see his father's old Army buddy, Oliver. For most, it would be no problem. Hop in the car, placate the family, get your money: no problem. Then again, you have not met Eric, have you? Armed with his father's journal and a first edition of Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast, Eric decides to make amends to his family and get his life back on track. What he doesn't expect is to have Ernest Hemingway's ghost along for the ride. With intentions of helping Eric get it right, Hemingway manages to complicate the situation, resulting in an unforgettable road trip.
Help comes in many forms. In this case, it is Hemingway's ghost who is determined to make Eric's first draft at life a good one. With any luck, he'll succeed before Eric loses a kneecap.
