Your comment...I love the cover you chose, Patricia. Your comments on the others showed how they just didn't fit the story, or the character. The cover you picked out is gorgeous, and also gives a sense of mystery, of challenge somewhere in the story.

My agent tells me covers disagreements give him the most work, headaches, and heartaches. No wonder publishers demand full control... The swing one is really pretty. We just couldn't get past her hair color and youth. In A Season to Dance we journey with Ana from the time she's 25 until soon after her 33rd birthday. I did make a note to look up that image and model again for The Song of the Desert Willow, if I'm ever ready to pitch/sell that manuscript. She would make a great Clara :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01854586114372855343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4620199782689299940.post-38505989244677685542017-05-22T17:08:11.696-07:002017-05-22T17:08:11.696-07:00Thank you!

But if that's not the mood of your book, it's the wrong cover for your book. <br /><br />I have seen books that make that mistake - they set expectations the book can't keep, and that can lead to disappointed readers.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your process!Iolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199141868703826943noreply@blogger.com
