Wow. Perfect cover! Looking forward to it.

Paul Lisicky said...

Thank you so much, Nick! Your vote of confidence means a lot. The actual colors are a little sharper than what's here. I ran a PDF file through some converter to take it to a JPEG. But I think you get the idea.

Elizabeth Hilts said...

Oh, perfect!

Paul Lisicky said...

Thanks, Elizabeth!

Scary good.

Collin Kelley said...

Love it. Sorta reminds me of the band Massive Attack and their logo.

Paul Lisicky said...

Scary good. I like that. There is a certain Halloweenishness in it.

Paul Lisicky said...

Thank you, Collin. I'll have to check out M.A.'s logo.

Deceptively simple like your prose, if you look long enough the foreground and background take turns...form follows function, so to speak.

Paul Lisicky said...

Gwynne--
"the foreground and the background take turns." That is it, and so perceptive, and I'll always be aware of that from the here on out. Thanks very much.

Lakin said...

love the cover, Paul! I had that same foreground/background swap going on which makes the cover dynamic, animated in it's way. Can't wait to read it!

Paul Lisicky said...

Thanks very much, Lakin. Animated and dynamic--just what one wants to hear.
