*sips tea*
Oct. 12th, 2006 05:52 pmDear Ms. Gate,
Thank you for your input regarding the cover we sent you. Our artist is currently working to "buff him up some", as you so succinctly put it. We will be sending you a new version as soon as is humanly possible.
Further to our previous correspondence, we really must ask that you reconsider your wish for the use of the font face "GirlyLatinScript" for the body pages of the novel. To illustrate our point, we have mocked up a page of text in the font you requested.
As you can see, the font face renders the text almost illegible. For the sake of our readers' eyes, we strongly recommend you go with a more traditional serif font, such as Times New Roman, or just some easy to read Frutiger thing.
We hope to hear from you soon. It is always a pleasure to hear your input.
Kind regards,
S. Smith LadyBooks Publishers

Maybe I can give you some pointers.

Date: 2006-10-13 07:30 am (UTC)Oh, yes. I discussed the concept with the artist. I wanted something that encapsulated the themes and motifs of the novel.
And also included a shirtless man.

I don't want to spoil your enjoyment of the story by skewing your perception with my authorial intent.
*eyes you*
You can read it when it's published.

no subject
Date: 2006-10-13 08:12 am (UTC)I sent it off to the publishers and burned my only other copy. As an offering to my muse.
It's a writer's thing.
*kiss*
You wouldn't understand.
