Michelle, me too! I sent Rhett a dozen pics of book covers I like, with comments about why I like them. We'll see what the designer comes up with. I'd rather be surprised than have to generate the ideas. It would be cool to have a bear on the back cover, though. Yes, that would be cool. A little bear standing on his hind legs with his paws up. In a threatening manner.

I'll keep you posted about how another novel of mine,THE TRANSCENDENTAL DETECTIVE, will be published in November 2013 by the same fine publisher.

Thanks! Your crows have Attitude! I think one of them is the one that barked at me and the Hounds the other day.
You've got a great expressive style going there - you should finish this project!

They're really more vague gestures in the general direction of crows than proper crows, but thanks.
I remember that I gave up this project because I couldn't capture the birds' essential crowy nature in my sketches and it was really frustrating.
You write beautifully, I read that you're a violinist, and now I see you draw as well. You're a man of many talents.
Can we expect a juggling video on YouTube anytime soon?
Charlie, you're far too generous! I'm mostly a hack at everything but writing, where I'm only a semi-hack but I'll take what I can get.
If you want juggling videos on youtube, you need to talk to Davin and Michelle. They have a knife-throwing routine that brings down the house.
Oooo, LOVE! I'm curious what you're going to have on your Astrologer cover. :)

RAWRRRRR!
A bear would be very cool. :)
Me juggling is a very bad idea.
A bear, juggling Davin! Yeah, that's it!
