After spending a long time deliberating which of my covers to use (and boring the pants off many a YWO'er) I have finally decided Neither.
Thus I am looking for a fresh cover approach, I have many thoughts/ ideas and concepts, but I need someone who can talk them over with me and realise them.

Joe 90's daughter Esther Harding might be the person. Leave Joe a message. She has Uni exams but I was told sh'll be free in June, just not sure from which date.

Yes, Perry, I could talk to you about a cover. I'm an established graphic designer with a lot of publishing experience but the only cover I've designed recently is for our own imminent anthology. See attached. My email address is on my bio.

It's printing now! We got a great recommendation from Andrew Taylor (The American Boy) and one from Gillian Philip (Firebrand) and they seemed genuinely to enjoy the stories, but we know anthologies don't sell. It's more to draw a line and move on than any other expectations.

Thanks, RoseRed. The image reflects one of the stories jointly written by the chaps.

My daughter Esther has finished her exams now and is ready for some more covers. Here's a sample to date:
