The Sky Isn’t Visible from Here, the paperback: now, that’s what I’m talking about!
I might possibly get shot for posting this, but I believe this is ideal cover concept for the paperback version of my memoir, due out in May of 2009, by Harper Perennial. The cover is decidedly bold, smart, and jives with the book’s positioning (cripe, I’ve worked in publishing way too long! There goes my marketing speak). Anyway, I couldn’t be more pleased with my auspicious new home (while supremely grateful for the wonderful job that Algonquin did with the hardcover) because I know I’m in very capable hands.
To note, this is a photograph of a low-res image. The cover will be infinitely foxy (if this is the one we indeed go with).
To also note, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t buy the hardcover!
To also note again, L.A. CityZine interviews me.

I have stopped what I was doing several times just to look at that cover. It’s just fantastic and I hope it’s the one. To be totally honest, I’m a sucker for the font. It just looks _right_.
