    Busy Ben has meant a lull in posts here but a continuation over at the blog so I'll give what they were to be used for then throw a few more pics at you.

    Those dolls were to be part of a beauuuuutiful stage show that my protagonist was forced to go to that then followed him out onto the streets but it all got a bit ridiculous and an entourage woulda spoiled the Dantean two wanderers feel. So there. Nuh.

    Jebus what a fortnight.

    Startups are time-heavy. Excuse the breaks, they may will happen.

    Those three were to be some of the books my main boy had read - I was hoping he'd be a little smarter than your average working-class immigrant but then I realized that no, there's no need to make him likable to intellectuals. It's their job to engage with the character.

    So my cover has now been through 6 iterations and I'm now very very happy with what we have.

    The first looked like this:
    a turd of a book cover
    Not great, let's be honest.

    So I asked the publisher's designer to do a second.
    pfffft
    Not much better.

    So I thought, 'Fuck it. I'll get a different designer.'
    This was his first design - muuuuucch better
    I was blown away - my publisher have been too.
    But this is only the third design...
