Jimmy ends his post with a note for anyone who doesn't know him. But who doesn't know Jimmy Thomas! I'm lucky enough to have Jimmy on three of my covers, all unique. Thank heaven for dedicated models like Jimmy. They make it possible for writers to present their work with a beauty and grace that reflects our hard work. Keep up the good work, Jimmy!
Merry Christmas everyone! And kudos Tarah and CTR for creating Santa Watch. I hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas weekend and are ready for a great 2012. How do I know it will be a great 2012? Because I've (RNC) been working on a huge project that will revolutionize the romance novel industry, especially the indie side. Yes, revolutionize it, bring about a radical change. A change for the better, a change to inspire, to learn, improve, enhance, produce, benefit, expand and succeed. Did I get your attention yet? Good 😉
Release date will be the beginning of January 2012. My goal is to make your process in this industry easier, quicker and more beneficial for everyone 🙂 For those of you who go to conventions/events, so far in 2012 I'll be at The Chocolate Affaire in Glendale, AZ February 4, 2012, at Tucson Festival of Books March 10-11, 2012, at Arizona Dreamin' (AD2012) in Chandler, AZ June 1-3, 2012 and at C. Deanne Rowe's Book Launch Party and RNC Workshop June 8-9 in Des Moines, IA.
For those of you who don't know who I am, or haven't seen my "Hero" video cover montage yet, here you go: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF7jZH5Ynd
Merry Christmas! 🙂
Jimmy Thomas – RNC
Love the montage!! And you are right…….he is so HOT!!!!:-)
Well hello, Jimmy!!
Dang, looks like I have crawled into bed with you on more than one occassion and didn't even know your true name!! Those darn (wonderful) authors that have hidden you behind so many 'aliases', lol.
Nice to meet you and may you have a wonderful holiday. *smiles*
ROFLMAO!! Theresa! (Stay tuned for more of those aliases. I have a couple of my own.)
Cool, Tarah! Can't wait *wiggles brows*
Just watched the youtube video. I didn't realize you were on so many book covers, especially ones I've read. I've bought many of the books just from the cover alone!!
wow, your on alot of books, alot of them are hanging out on my bookcase or at lest my to read list:)
Your smoking !!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Jimmy

And a happy holidays to you too Jimmy!
You know its weird, it never occurs to me that a cover model might be on more than one cover. I think the only cover artist I know of who uses models I recognize on sight is Chris McGrath (he has a male and female duo that he uses A LOT), but wow sir you've graced many a cover of books I've read (or wishlisted!).
Love Jimmy Thomas, I spent quite a bit of time chatting with him at the LA RT this year. He ia a nice guy and very photogenic, of course. I am sure Tarah that any cover with JT is a good one, he is very versatile in his modeling.
ROFL. Yes, Elaine. I doubt Jimmy takes a bad picture.
Merry Christmas to you too Jimmy! I've gotta agree with you on the kudos to Tarah for putting this all together. I know how much work she's done on it! I've gotta say – I'm intrigued. Something that is going to revolutionize the indie side of the romance industry? As a publisher (indie and previously owned New Age Dimensions a small press), cover designer (just did one with you in it for Tarah) and author – I'll definately be checking out RNC in January. I'm already on the mailing list so I can't wait to find out what it is you're doing!
I get his new stock shoots every month or so and it is interesting seeing the stock photo verses the finished cover. He does have a very distinctive look.
Happy Holidays Jimmy. I already feel like we know each other since your covers have taken up a permanent residence in my house! Thanks for warming up my nights all year around!
LOL! Honestly, Jimmy Thomas, who wouldn't know you?! Thanks for gracing so many covers and for your generosity and great attitude! Wishing you a wonderful holiday, too!
Hi! Thanks for stopping in Jimmy! You do wonderful covers. Very hot! 😉 Happy holidays!

I'm lucky enough to have an autographed photo of Jimmy that I get to drool over every morning. That makes it Christmas everyday.

Oh Good God, lol! So, I'm sitting here, sipping my coffee laced with egg nog, trying to wake up, I click on the link and…guess what, your montage works better than my coffee! Thank you for a wonderful early gift, much appreciated! 🙂 <3
I don't think any romance fan would not know who Jimmy Thomas is! And all you have to do is see 1 of your covers and then others pop into the mind.

I've spent many evenings in bed with the beautiful Jimmy! More than I can even keep track of:) What a beautiful montage, but then again, I expect nothing less from him. Thanks for keeping us women drooling and begging for more!
Jimmy,
Loved the video. I received my goodies from Brenda and there was your little note and autograph amongst all my stuff. In fact the goodie package came from you. To my surprise. May you have a very Merry Christmas.
Teresa K.
Wow what a hottie!! Thanks for sharing!!
