Cover Art for "How to Kill Your Immortal"

'How to Kill Your immortal"
Hello Lovelies,
""
The cover art for "How to Kill Your Immortal" is ready! I found an absolutely phenomenal artist who goes by the name of Ravven78. You can find examples of her work here. She was incredibly professional and walked a newbie like me through the process of designing a book cove patiently and painlessly. I can't say enough good things about my experience with Ravven.


My experience with getting the cover art done is yet another post topic I have to complete. It's actually pretty embarrassing to admit, but I was so focused on finishing the book and getting the preview chapters listed that I never even considered the cover art.I cobbled together a basic image from stock photos and MS publisher for the preview chapters I uploaded to Barnes & Noble, Amazon and Smashwords. However, every article and book I read on self-publishing stressed the importance of professional cover art. Of course I read all of theses articles and books while I was trying to upload my chapters, not prior to (queue hysterical crying). Thankfully I was able to put together the art for the preview chapters myself an find a kick-ass artist afterwards.


The cover has my main character Jasmine LaCroix looking hot and bad-ass and I absolutely LOVE it!
I can't wait to release the final book for everyone to enjoy.


Talk to you soon,
Laurel
