This post is to catch up on all the other items I have missed while getting Brass Neck complete.

Competition:

Congrats to Jackie Bunting who wins the lovely A3 artwork. I will be getting this to you shortly.

The response to this competition was quite overwhelming, so I am thinking of running another one for the ‘Brass Neck’ front cover.

Talking of front covers, this one was a tough one. I think in the end we got it down to three and indeed there was nothing between them. It was so bad that I even considered a different cover and insert for the ebook and the paperback.

I don’t think you can ever be sure you have made the right decision, and the image choice for this book was made right at the wire, so thanks again to Dark Grail for all his efforts.

Here is a selection of concept art images that didn’t get to the final three. All of them winners in their own right and deserving of their moment to shine. When we do Sticky Valves The Graphic Novel, they might come back.
