I’ve spent the last week proofing the final pages of Madigan Mine, with help from my wonderful Jason who picked up a couple significant errors as well as a handful of minor typos. The corrected copy has been sent to my editor this morning, which means that my work here is pretty much done. Until publication, at least.
So I thought I’d celebrate by posting this beautiful cover that the wonderful people at PanMacmillan came up with. Hmm. Typeset pages. Pretty cover art. Looks like I’m actually going to have a book published in August!

lovely!
fabbo! can’t wait to read it
so exciting – congratulations. Not long now!
That is utterly divine. You should be incredibly proud.
Wow! That looks wonderful! Can’t wait to read it. And can I borrow Jason for my next round of proofreading 🙂
Absolutely. He does require a daily intake of approximately 1.48 litres of coffee in order to work properly, though.
Ooh, yes please! I can’t wait to read what you’ve been cooking up. will work for Moccona!
What a beautiful cover! I love the red and black (hey, it matches your blog!).
Can’t wait for the launch.
Moody and atmospheric – love it! Will be lining up at the bookstore for my copy in August. 🙂
I teared up. So proud of you. Congrats.
Yay! Awesome stuff 🙂 love the cover-art.
Yup, add my name to the ‘can’t wait’ list.
