Abigail Bok I like the cover of The Cleft Owl.

Thanks for the feedback Abigail. This is the most recent one that I've created, and am most satisfied with. It's just possible that you may even prefer the cover for Upon Barden Moor when it comes out later this year, probably at some point in November :-)

Abigail Bok It passes the “thumbnail” test! You can read the title and understand the image, and you can read a mood from the image even when it’s tiny. I’ve been told that’s important for two reasons: (1) it can be easily seen on a bookstore shelf and (2) it needs to intrigue online eyeballs like those of Goodreads members enough to click through and learn more about the book.

Sigh, and I keep hoping writing is all about the words!

Thank you Abigail :-). Ah yes: the words. Alas, judging by many poorly-written bits and pieces that I've seen clogging up the Amazon charts in relatively lofty positions - when compared to mine, that is - the words aren't what initially snag the potential reader's attention.
