Hi, Brian.

Thanks to your workshop in Sudbury last September, I heard about CommuterLit and successfully submitted “Haiku Through the Seasons,” a two-part cycle of poems. These poems were previously published in Breccia, a collection I co-published with Ignatius Fay.

Also, I have had a piece accepted for CommuterLit Selections, Vol. 2, due in June 2014.

Writer to Writer:

Every book needs a cover

The last sentence is written, your book is finally complete!

Now you need an outstanding cover to grab readers!

I'm susan, a freelance artist living in northern Ontario and I would love to collaborate with you on a cover that will both excite and promote.

For $125.00 I'll create a package ready for submission!  A front cover, back cover with blurb and spine, all to spec and all with your vision in mind!

I've created 30+ covers to date and have received outstanding testimony for both the vision's accuracy and the speed with which I work.

I look forward to creating with you!  Write on!
