PREMEDITATED HAS A COVER!!!!!!!!!!

If you follow me on Twitter, you no doubt saw similar crazy cap lock shouting yesterday, because PREMEDITATED HAS A COVER!!!!!!!!!!

This is NOT that cover:


I can't show you the actual cover, yet because my editor would email herself to my house smack me. But, next week, I'll be able to put the actual cover up here and on Goodreads for all to see.

Guys, this cover is... I don't even know.

There's a lot of anxiety that comes with waiting for a cover comp from your publisher. The cover will be your book's introduction to the world, and you pretty much have no participation in that introduction. It's like going to a party and having to wait for someone to introduce you before you get to speak. It's weird, and uncomfortable and nerve-wracking, and a million possible horrible cover scenarios will worm their way into your brain, but guys... GUYS!!! This cover is PERFECT.

It fits the tone. It fits the story. The model on the cover could actually BE Dinah (the main character). The designer knocked it out of the park and into another stadium.

So come back next Thursday and I'll show it off once I get the all clear.

Exciting! I was thinking it was kind of like an arranged marriage. Never seen the person before, but here you are about to spend the rest of your life with them...

Matthew MacNish said...

Awesome. I'm curious to see whether she'll be in full on goth gear, or prep-school disguise. Either way, I'm sure it will be amazing.

Jessica Schley said...

Secretly, though, I will always also envision PREMEDITATED with the cover you made for it.

But I'm excited to see the "real" one.
