Since I’m self-publishing my collection, I had control over the design. Being the artsy fuck that I am, I made the cover myself!
It has just the right amount of discordance to convey the discomfort that I feel is so present in each poem.
Anyway, here we go! No sense dillydallying.
It’s just a thumbnail. But I’m very, very pleased with it. I designed the compass by hand from sketches and then to a digital rendering, and the background is from hand-marbled paper that I scanned and messed around with. I’m proud of how the design ties into the poems without being overt.
Next up will be the pre-order links! They’ll be coming fairly soon for both ebook and paperback through Amazon KDP and CreateSpace.
Ah, congratulations! 🙂 I’ve seen you tweeting about this here and there and was wondering about the progress of it. 😉
Thank you!! I’m pretty proud of this!
