Pretty cool, huh? I can report that the book is pleasingly chunky and it has pages and everything. There wasn't as much squeeing as I would have thought, primarily due to the aforementioned dull/depressing stuff. Still, getting a finished a copy is another important landmark on the journey towards publication. Three and a bit weeks until 6th January. How did that happen?!
yeyyy, not long to wait :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Take a moment amid all the dull depressing stuff for a little squee or two. Can't wait to see it in the shops.
ReplyDeleteIt looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe raised cover print looks great.
Thank you for sharing Cat!
The dream actualized... Wow!
Merry Christmas,
Rob

Kirsty- I've ordered a copy from Amazon too, so that I know when they're shipping!
ReplyDeleteDemitria- Good luck with your submissions! I had a meeting with my editor to talk through some cover ideas. I never thought I would love a cover with a face on it - turns out I was WRONG. Authors usually get consulted about their covers, and publishers want authors to be happy with their covers, but it really is a case of publisher knows best!
