    Do I have anyone here I can commission to do a book cover? My normal artist, I think, is too busy at the moment and the poor guy will work himself to death rather than let anyone down.

      @jonn_blanchard My girlfriend is a comicbook artist, has worked for Marvel, Fox...

      You can check her out at @mechangel, see if the style is of interest. (She has stuff in her pinned posts.)

            @retech The book is a comedy fantasy set partly in the modern world, partly in an Orc dimension connected to a portal - featuring a sandwich shop owner who finds out he's destined to be the protector of earth with the help of his accountant, Susan

              @jonn_blanchard What are you hoping for in terms of style?
              I can do comic book & fine art styles.
              This is a cover from my own comic which was done a few years ago. I can work in a few styles.

                @jonn_blanchard I know a couple artists (literally, they're a couple). I asked them about availability, we'll see what - if anything - comes of it.

                    @jonn_blanchard I know a young woman with a masters degree who doesn’t have a full-time job and is even pet sitting for extra money. I would like to refer you to her. I think she’s good but I’m not an artist.
                    I’m checking with her to see if she has something I can post for you from her portfolio. I also suggested she joined Mastodon.

                                        Do I have anyone here I can commission to do a book cover? My normal artist, I think, is too busy at the moment and the poor guy will work himself to death rather than let anyone down.

                                          I wrote a book years ago and hired an illustrator. He did good work, but it cost $300 against the net book sales of $10 (at best). Art is hard, I get that, and when I release music, the best I have ever earned from a track is about $150. I'm pretty much forced to use my own photos for covers.
