This is the wonderful cover of my book, designed by David Drummond. It's getting rave reviews in the world of book design, where pale pink is rarely seen outside of baby books. I have to admit that it took me a little while to warm up to it, since it's far from my favourite colour. But I am so glad now that I didn't complain, because I've come to really love it. The spareness and stark contrast between the black crow and the soft pink beautifully reflects the poetry inside. Even the publisher agreed to leave their logo off the front cover to maintain the integrity of the design. I was so convinced, I even tried to match that pink for this blog. Check out David's own blog to see more of his very impressive work.http://bookcoverarchive.com/
