Years ago I wrote a number of Native American historicals with Tor and loved the intensely emotional and active covers. They were painted by Royo who I believe lived in Spain. I even had one blown up and framed and its still in my office.

My last Tor cover was a complete departure. No people struggling against the elements. Instead Tor opted for something they’d gotten from Smithsonian and the book tanked. Looking at it, I can’t relate.

Artists like you bring the books to life.

Thank you. It sounds like you have worked on some really interesting projects and I love your covers.
How long does it take to complete one project And do you work on one at a time or do you have more than one going at any one time?
I ask the latter because I find I have all kinds of ideas when I am writing one book, but I have to jot them down and put them away or they interfere with the wip.
Best
Ann
