Like to have a peek at my cover? It's a retro-style adventure for 9-12s

My adventure story, "The Bother in Burmeon", is being published in April by a small independent press, Circaidy Gregory Press. And I've reached a big milestone - we have a front cover design! Have a look here:

It's been great fun developing the cover - apparently most mainstream big publishers hand you a finished job, but our process was definitely a collaborative one.

It's nearly 5 years since I wrote the first draft of this story - and not long now before it's out there!

It looks great and like a book that DS (10) would pick up in a bookshop.
Congratulations on getting it published smile

Yup, I've got excited bits on my excited bits...
Thanks, everyone. For fans of the tiger, she's on the spine of the book, too!
