and, after yesterday's Ack!OMGWTF copyedit postings, something happier....

The cover for PSI#3: TRICKS OF THE TRADE!



*is squeefully joyful*



The setting is the banks of lower Manhattan, off the East River. It doesn't actually LOOK like that, but the feel is dead-on perfect. Am very happy writer-meerkat.

And before anyone asks: November 2011, and no you can't pre-order it yet, I don't know why...

I am enough of an expatriate New Yorker to try and figure out which bridge that was.

I think this is a case where art is more realistic than reality, especially the reality of the Cosa Nostradamus. :)

[lagilman]

Yeah - it actually takes place around East River Park, with the Williamsburg Bridge somwhere in the area. But the scene itself is underneath a cement docking, which is... very unphotogenic. The chain and the water are accurate, tho....

The Williamsburg (and frankly the Manhattan) don't get anywhere near the love that the Brooklyn Bridge do. It would have been easy to do the Brooklyn Bridge. On the other hand, as I recall the geography, the only good places to similarly stand beneath the Brooklyn Bridge are all on the Brooklyn side...

[lagilman]

Well, BURNING BRIDGES did a nice cover-take on it...

Sexxay! Seriously, awesome! yay! And look how big your name is! :)

[lagilman]

That kinda terrifies me, actually...

I love the misty look of that.

Looks nice!

But.. but.. you cut off all my good questions/comments!! :P

[lagilman]

I did it JUST to fuck with you, too. *nods*

[mt-yvr.livejournal.com]

Well obviously. I mean, you ever think of anyone else? No, I thought not. CLEARLY all your status updates and deadlines, releases and so on are all for ME.


:P

Squee here, too. Is there an echo?

[chris-walsh.livejournal.com]

Was that one of the bridges used in the film The Fisher King?

[lagilman]

No idea. Which bridge did they use? (that's probably the Williamsburg, based on location, although it's not actually in the scene itself)

Joyful squeeing here too. That's is a nice cover.

[seachanges.livejournal.com]

Ooooooo! I've liked all the covers for the PSI books, but I really like that one!

[mikaela-l.livejournal.com]

Ooh. Nice cover!
Good thing it isn't available for pre-order, since I am broke after pre-ordering The Shattered Vine!:) But come June I wont be. Which is nice.

*is squeeing too* I absolutely love this series and cannot wait for this book to come out. :) Bought "Hard Magic" on a whim and have not regretted it. :D
