#bookcoverdesign — Public Fediverse posts

So excited to share the new book covers for my ecofiction trilogy! These were designed by Canadian artist and graphic designer Laurie Landry, who artfully incorporated my paintings. I worked on the trilogy for 15 years and the paintings (part of a series of 27 large panels) for 5 years...

The first two novels, The Erenwine Agenda: A Hydraulic Fracturing Love Story, and Otter Coast: A Medical Marijuana Mystery, were previously published and will be reprinted with the new covers. Rail: A High Speed Adventure, will be published for the first time in a few weeks.

What connects fracking, marijuana and infrastructure, you might ask? They are threaded together by the singular journey of the protagonist, Amalia Sengupta Erenwine, who begins as an intern working in architecture, then pursues her licensing exams, and finally, works as a registered architect. Her visionary states lead her across regions, countries and continents, culminating in the final novel, Rail. Though a trilogy, these can be read (and people are currently reading) standalone, not in order. I'll share more with next steps and notes from the studio.

For now: three good things, in Mastodon style: 1. inspired ideas 2. great collaborators 3. easy platforms on which to share them-thank you @PaulaToThePeople ! @ThreeGoodThings
