That’s right! Very soon, I’m
going to reveal the all-new covers for Flicker, Brightly and Lights!
Why redesign the covers?
Actually, a lot went into this decision. As much as I love the current
covers—and as much hard work as they’ve done for me—I believe the books would
be better served by a different look.
First of all, the old covers give
off more of a romance vibe than an urban fantasy vibe. Because of that, some
readers go in expecting a lot more romance than there is. The new covers have a
much stronger fantasy vibe, and I think they’re a better reflection of what
you’ll get when you read the books.
Second, with only Lee on the
current covers, you get the impression that she’s the single most important
character. In reality, of course, there’s an ensemble cast and multiple POV
characters. The new covers reflect that much more accurately: Each cover
features a different character.
Also, the new covers will feature
original model photography by the very talented Christine Woeller—which means
that these covers will be totally unique!
I’m about to order proof copies
of the redesigned Flicker and Brightly paperbacks—and as soon as they’re in my
hands, I’m going to share photos of them with you. I can’t wait for you to see
them! They’re beautiful!
The cover of Lights is more of a
special case: I’m going to unveil it during my reading at Sasquan in August,
and after that, the cover will go live on my blog and Facebook page.
