And this is my beautiful, amazing, wonderful, absolutely gorgeous cover for my May 09 Little Black Dress release, Girl from Mars.
The back-cover blurb:
I, Philomena Desdemona Brown, do solemnly swear to forsake all romantic relationships…
It’s not like the vow, made by Fil and her nerdy best male friends so they’d always stick together, was a big deal at the time. Frankly, Fil wouldn’t know romance if it hit her in the face anyway. Her one true love is her job as the artist for the famous comic Girl from Mars. Just like the comic’s heroine, Fil’s never had or needed a love interest–just her best friends. Until one of them breaks the vow and falls in love, bringing her smack back down to earth.
Could it be that romance is in the stars for Fil after all?
It looks fantastic. You must be so chuffed! Looking forward to May 09
Gorgeous!!
Okay, that cover k-yoot. It’s kind of sci-fi mod, like the Jetsons, but with cooler clothes.
Carol, I am absolutely thrilled with this one. It is pretty much exactly what I pictured when I wrote the book, except that her skin should be green. But that would probably clash with the rest of the cover, which matches my website, wow!
Hooray Ruth!
I know, I thought “Jetsons” too, Ehle. I love her bracelets like a planet’s rings. I sort of worry about how comfortable that metal outfit is, and also the rocket exhaust so close to her naked thighs, but hey, when you’re an alien you love that stuff.
(I’m sorry, I am gloating. But the cover fairies have been very, very kind lately.)
Gorgeous!
Cool…or should that be Hot?!
Fantastic. Am I allowed to be green with envy ? snarf
Wow! Julie! Zappy or what? Really fabuloso, this one.
Cute cover.
ooo love that cover. Everything but the Mekon!
Wow – that is the coolest cover I’ve seen in a long time!!!!!!! Btw, I’ve started doing some weekend work in the local library so I shelfed One Night Stand in the ‘must read’ section – it looked so pretty there!!!!
Oooo that is kewl!! You are in the cover fairies good graces aren’t you??
Fab cover!!!
Thank you, Nell, Fran, Ray-Anne, Jan, Dina, Jenny, Amanda, Biddy, and Liz!
Jenny, you’re totally right; the character is meant to be Dan Dare-era.
Amanda thank you for pimping my book!!
Biddy, I find slipping the cover fairies some cash occasionally works wonders.
Wow, the cover fairies have been very kind to you. Nice one
How utterly FAB! I just love it. When I see it in a bookstore, there’s a fair chance I’ll be walking out the door with a copy – having paid for it first of course.
That is a 100 per cent pick me up now cover! I’ll be waiting for it. jx
Loving the cover, and can’t wait for the book. (or the others yet to be released. lol.
Hooray! Thanks Kate, Janet, Jude and Sahndre.
Janet, I hope the cover doesn’t lead you into uncharacteristic shoplifting.
Coming in late here as usual – but just wanted to say this cover is WAY COOL!!
Thank you Rach!
Wow, Julie. Love, love, love it! Goes perfectly with everything you were telling me about it on the course.
Hee hee hee, it’s perfect isn’t it??
(Notice I am still gloating? Goooood cover fairies. Niiiiiiice cover fairies.)
It’s BEAUTIFUL! And sounds great, too
I would almost expect the title to be flashing on and off when the book gets picked up.
