CrimeSpace

The Anthonys have a new category this year, Best Cover Art, and early Bouchercon registrants have a chance to nominate between now and April 30. Most authors either love or hate their covers, and if they're with the larger publishers, they usually have little or no say in the matter. I'm inviting any author who believes that his or her 2008 cover could be a contender to post to this discussion, so we can go to your page and take a look. No BSP--just say you have an eligible cover and where we can see it. Mine is on my CrimeSpace page below my 2009 cover, not out yet. Personally, I'd be happy to see as many great covers as possible.

Steve, email me a jpeg of your cover BEFORE Thursday April 2 if you want it included on Poe's Deadly Daughters. I got a thin response via this discussion--many thanks to all of you who DID jump in--but posts on the e-lists EMWA, SinC, DorothyL, and Murder Must Advertise yielded about 75 covers their authors were proud of. These are being displayed on Poe's Deadly Daughters, featured on three consecutive Thursdays (and available on the blog anyhow if you scroll down or put "covers of 2008" or "cover art of 2008" in the search box. Poe's Deadly Daughters is at www.poesdeadlydaughters.blogspot.com, and I'm happy to add to the final batch that'll be posted this coming Thursday. We've gotten a lot of visitors, too--everybody seems to be enjoying the opportunity to look at the range and variety of cover art in one place (other than bookstore shelves). :)

Elizabeth, sorry, I was away and missed the deadline!
Next time perhaps.
