I have a preliminary cover . . .

I gather there've been a few changes made to both illustration (by Bob Eggleton) and typography/design (by Steve Upham), but MADDENINGLY I haven't yet seen them. In the meantime, this is as much as I know about how the outside of my novel The Dragons of Manhattan (Screaming Dreams Press, Real Soon Now) is going to look:

 

There's a web page about the book at http://www.screamingdreams.com/index1.html (then choose "Paperback Books/Books in Progress/The Dragons of Manhattan); it too still has the penultimate-draft cover design.

Even before the emplacement of the revisions, this is somewhat, um, cool, ain't it? Tonight there's at least one author who's dancing around a bit, punching the air occasionally in triumphalist fashion, requiring periodic deflation by his ever-lovin' spouse . . .

If we had dragons here instead of pigeons, what would the impact be on the rat population? Hmmmmm.

Congratulations on the lovely cover art and publication!

Love, C.

Yahey! How good to hear from you. I've just e-mailed the address I have for you. If that bounces, I'll try via your blog, as you suggest.

Yes, The Dragons of Manhattan is at last appearing as a printed book!
