At that point, I would have brought the author and editor over to my computer, sat them down, and said "Here's the computer, here's the software, go ahead and design it and I'll be back after a long, liquid lunch."<br /><br />I'm so impressed with your patience and perseverance! That's why you're great, and I'm anonymous, I guess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910192177400109133.post-37786174537213707282009-08-13T07:18:50.041-04:002009-08-13T07:18:50.041-04:00Thanks - that's incredible, but also not surpr...Thanks - that's incredible, but also not surprising. I'm sure you have some great stories to tell about the trials and tribulations of working with authors and publishers too, but very wise of you to be so diplomatic here!<br /><br />I'll look forward to seeing more.umlautnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910192177400109133.post-72042015512004177072009-08-12T14:18:21.496-04:002009-08-12T14:18:21.496-04:00I think it took several months of back & forth...I think it took several months of back & forth before we had a cover design in place. The final cover, with the small icons, took another month of so to finalize with the correct art...K.

Have to say though, I think the first is my favourite - that image is really striking, but I especially love that font (great 'R' in Troy!).<br /><br />Would it be rude to ask how long a process like this might take from start to finish?<br /><br />And great blog by the way.umlautnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4910192177400109133.post-40675380652828668302009-08-12T12:30:01.250-04:002009-08-12T12:30:01.250-04:00Wow, what a process.
