Common and Precious cover

Heather's finished the cover (she works fast!) and it's gorgeous. Take a look over here and leave her a nice comment! I will be getting the layouts ready for the review copies this weekend, hoping to have them done by mid-month so we can ship copies to get reviews in prior to the January release. The text still needs minor tweaks and proofing, but it's in pretty good shape overall. I'm happy with it, anyway.

It's a great feeling to see a project come together like this. I'm excited!

You know, that really is just a gorgeous piece of artwork, and I can definitely see it catching many an eye when laid out for perusal. That, and it's just so gosh-darn attractive that I can't imagine it not making a nice addition to just about any library. :)

It's been a really great experience getting to watch you put this novel together. Just from seeing you go through the process, I feel like I've learned a whole lot. I hope that one day I might be able to match the dedication you have to your work.

I'm also really excited to see how the book reviews!

Me too! Well, excited and scared ...

I've appreciated all the wonderful help you've given me in the process as well, and hopefully I can return the favor as you get your own novel ready for its own cover.
