Cover reveal for Starting From Scratch

With a cover, a book comes to life in many ways. I’ve received lots of positive comments on the cover for Starting From Scratch, but I must admit that, while it was important that the cover model had blue eyes and dark hair (and I always like a horse if possible…) I leave the design up to the creative people at HarperCollins, my publisher. The cover also has input from sales and marketing and the clever people who deal with bookshops and on line retailers. I like being traditionally published because it lets me hand over a lot of important things to the publisher (like cover design and marketing) so I have more time to do what I like doing best - which is writing!
