it's my rank dimwittedness wot's my most appealing characteristic . . .


. . . so you can just imagine what the rest are like.

Over the weekend, an e-mail from the divine [profile] norilanabooks informed me sweetly (as sweetly as only norilnabooks can) that I'd managed to post the wrong version of the Leaving Fortusa ARC cover proof here.

What I posted was the penultimate proof, which differed by one word on the back from its successor. So here, in the interests of completeness or something like that, is the correct version:

(Nervously scrutinizes pic to make sure he hasn't made the same knuckleheaded mistake again. Phew!)

To repeat: If anyone would like to review the book on their blog (or elsewhere), I've been told I can dish out PDFs of the ARC. Send me your e-address via the LJ system, and I'll despatch a copy in your direction pronto(ish).

Dat's better.

The back cover text is now correct, though the blue is still a bit chromatically off (needs more violet). Hee...

Anyways Don't mind me! This book is gonna be GORGEOUS. :-)

It looks good to me.

The opposite thing to dimwitted, it seems to me, would be to be brought up, say, in Kemnay in Aberdeenshire.

Everytime I see this cover I'm in awe of its design and artwork.

(I thought it was your modesty that was your most appealing characteristic . . . now I'm really confused)

I've had a long day, but I can't see any difference between the two. What was the rogue word?
I'd like to big the book up (translation: I'd like to read it now) but I'm not sure when I'll have time; I haven't even started Cone Zero yet.
Lovely cover.
