Unlucky?

Good morning, Readers!

Me. This is me, right here. *sigh* Image courtesy of ghantafun.com. Click for link.
So, as many of you who follow me on Facebook know, I seem to have lost my cover artist.  This makes me very sad, because the cover I had reserved with her for Sky Road Walker was really perfect for the book.

Unlucky.

I am now in the process of searching for a new cover artist/artwork because I'm fairly certain I won't be able to get in contact with her again.  I'm looking at pre-mades at the moment, as they tend to be less expensive.  This book is for charity, so I don't want to spend too much money putting the thing together.

My interior designer, Eric, has suggested that the tone of the book lends itself well on doing a riff on the old school choose your own adventure books.  Considering the manner in which the book was written, it's a very tempting idea.

I'm mulling it over.

I have found a couple of covers that might do, but they're a good deal darker and not as magical as the one I had originally picked.  I'm not sure dark is the way I want to go with this book cover.  This is not The Great Man series.

Unlucky.

I've plenty of time, though, as I was planning for this one to launch as next year's regular Hallowe'en release.  So, much of the rest of today will be spent trying to locate a book cover, or book cover artist whose stuff I like enough to approach, to see what can be done about my current predicament.

Maybe something perfect will show up.  Maybe I'll paint something.  Who knows?

On that note, I really have to get going.  There is so much work to do.  And by work, I mean researching possible book covers.

Le sigh.

​Ciao!
