Writer's Cramp in publishing industry, the book business

I love, love, love this video of the making of a book cover design. I know firsthand just how hard it is to come up with the design at all, let alone trying to make it look something like what you imagined, and my own amateur attempt was much simpler than this one. Simply fascinating!

I also love that this video is being used for book promotion, which is incredibly clever and smart. Got to envy that author for her very savvy agent and publisher’s marketing department…that kind of innovation and publisher push is, from everything I’ve read, not common.
