Working With an Artist

 One of the most fascinating things about putting out a book is seeing the images that have taken shape in the mind's eye of the artist designing the cover.
       
April Martinez read the book and designed the beautiful cover for Megge of Bury Down.
     
I gave no input, saw no early renderings, and was treated to the final cover the day the book was released. And I can only say how stunned I was that she captured so many iconic images from the story in one beautiful portrait.
       
Now April's at work on the book trailer, and I'm standing back and waiting for her eye and her hand to bring to the screen the sounds and images of Bury Down.
       
​I'll share it with you as soon as she says, "Done!"
