Interesting turn of events

Well, the book cover I am designing for Vamplit has left me frustrated, so I backed off of it last night so I wouldn't do anymore damage, but instead I have came up with a great idea! I am writing a very short novel, sort of what Stephanie Meyer had done, and create my main male characters side of how he met up with my female main character, Candra. Sort of, his side of the story, letting readers know a little bit more about him and how he came into to play. I thought this would be a good..."appetizer" while they wait for the sequel to come out. Something to keep their interest going until then. It'll be simply titled "Kane".

So far, its going loads smoother than my artwork.

    This is a great idea, Sue! Putting out appetizers can be fun and allow your devotees to stay in your camp and not wander off. Besides, it will take some of the angst away from your artwork.

    I know you'll do a great job on my covers!

Horror Book Covers

Designing book covers is like giving birth, it can be a "pain" and sometimes no "labor" at all. There is a pleasure in the end result, when everything you put into it finally comes together and says, "THAT'S IT!" Not always does it come right away, but after many trials and errors (and I haven't had many of them)you find something that works and it unfolds in front of you. My most difficult cover was "Water Hazard" took me weeks only because the author couldn't make up his mind and when he did, he didn't quite like it and it needed to be tweaked a bit (more like ALOT), and when the cover was finally to his liking...he didn't use it! Now, of course, he wasn't an author from Vamplit, because all authors from Vamplit are awesome! Am I right?! I've never, ever had a problem with doing a cover for Vamplit, NEVER. In fact, I can usually spit out a cover in record time and have it turn out perfect usually the first ...
