Behind The Cover Artist's Curtain

For a while now, I have been doing a series of posts on the Inside Books We Love blog about what goes into creating cover art (at least for me).  If you have any interest in a glimpse behind the scenes, please feel free to check them out.

The series of posts started with a brief run down of all of the aspects of cover art:

In the second post I addressed the dreaded Cover Art form:
