Cover Design

The editing process of my book is officially done and now I am on to the exciting part... cover design. My cover will be ready for viewing on June 24. I received an email from Linda Behrens this week who will be creating the cover for my book. Here is a little of what she said:

"After hearing from you about about your book, I will begin by sketching and brainstorming cover ideas. We have a meeting on other designers to eliminate ideas and focusing on which direction we should go in. Then, taking the strongest concepts, I will move to the computer to create several design options. Then we have a group meeting to decide on which cover designs are the best to send to you and which need revisions. My Creative Director will review the designs and recommend the best and most marketable options for you. I will send those designs to you. Please respond to the options within a few days of receiving them. Once you have chosen one of the directions I provide, the one that you feel is best for your book, I will make any last minute changes to the design, if needed, to make it the best cover it can be."

That is pretty exciting. To add to the excitement I am having a little contest. I need to pick a picture for the back cover of my book by June 15, So you can either comment on this blog or on my twitter account: www.twitter.com/jamesblewett or on my facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=890930011
