Cover is Done!

The final approval for the cover art work has finally been sent.  I would normally be super excited except that my sweet husband is not here to enjoy this with me and he will not be able to read the first copy.  I had this all planned out.  I was going to write in it and sign it.  Then I was going to wrap it for him and he was going to be the first person to read the finished, published work.

The entire thing is now sad to me.  I am satisfied that the book is finally moving along, but so devastated at the timing and the circumstances.

Bitterness

There are no words to describe how I am feeling as of late.  I wrote this book for my husband.  The book was delayed.  I don't know why it happened.  Now my precious prince will never get to see the book!  My husband passed away unexpectedly and here, 2 weeks later, I finally received the cover concept.  

The genre is not something that I had planned on getting into.  I knew that he would enjoy the read since he loved psycho-thrillers.  It is just such a weird feeling about the book and the way that this is happening.
