It is a fabulous setting:)
Love the DC setting and a murder that revolves around a library, sounds good!
It sure sounds fun:) And a library setting is always a win for me.
I’ve always been curious, how do you find or create book covers? Do you collaborate with an artist?
My publisher works with a cover artist and then I provide feedback on drafts that are produced.
