Melange - So Far So Good

They seemed to like that cover. I sent them the improved design just this morning when the publisher replied with a cc to their art cover person. I cc'd the art person, too, with the improved design.

But it is an improved design. I don't know if anyone caught the original design, but it had a typo in the top text, so that was fixed. And as I explained in my update yesterday, I found a better and more appropriate font. I also centered the text which improved the overall design just for that. I also got rid of that high contrast. At first I liked it, but then I changed my mind. Another thing I did to improve the design was I made that top text easier to read by eliminating most of those sparks that were behind the text. You could barely read it, but now it reads easily. And lastly, I had noticed that Melange Books doesn't put "A novel by..." on their books, so I deleted that. Just the author name is all Melange puts on their books, so I did it that way, too.

Yeah, I'm excited. Can you tell? KILLER OF KILLERS IS GETTING PUBLISHED. And of all four of the books that I wrote, that one is still my favorite story. This is big for me. Good luck to everyone who aspires to be published out there.
