Coincidence? Or did someone show the illustrator a picture of my hairdo? I've never met the artist or the designer, so I honestly don't know. But I suspect it's just happenstance.
I hadn't thought of that, Steph. That would explain it. :)
Myf, isn't it weird? I worry that readers will think I'm some sort of insane egotist, and will imagine I art-directed the illustration. "Goddamn it--this drawing doesn't look enough like ME! Make her blond! Part her hair on the left! Swoop it back! Make it longer!"
Wow, that is weird! Be prepared for people to ask if you posed for the cover - I get that all the time. Even though I don't look remotely like the person on my cover - unlike you!

Oh, I think the illustrator must have googled you. It's the same length and the same side part!
Wow! That is uncanny, Ellen.

Except that the cover girl is like, 'What do they know that I don't know?', and you're like, 'I know something you don't know.'

Ooh, Darby! I like that. I might have to steal it.
Hi Melanie. I was hoping you'd say a few people assumed your book was nonfiction asked for a demonstration of your super powers. :)
