WIP Wednesday Book Cover Art Sketch – Fashion Frenchies Cover Makeover

As you may remember, I’m looking to release FASHION FRENCHIES 2: THE POOCH SALUTE! in Spring 2025. I figured while I was at it, I’d redo the cover to FASHION FRENCHIES 1: LOVE POTION COMMOTION!

So here’s a working sketch of the main human character, Vivian Feng. She’s like Iris Apfel (RIP), but Chinese and for dog fashion.

Yes, I went full BEWITCHED on this. She’ll have some thicc Edna Mode-style glasses, but I thought I’d add those digitally. This will be inked by hand and then scanned in. Then I have to come up with some outfits!

Cover Makeover: THE BUREAUCRAT

As one of the first short stories I published, The Bureaucrat got the best cover I could make at the time (2017). And while I still like the vibe the original acid green cover brings to this Twilight Zone-esque tale of just deserts, I thought it was time for an update that brought the human(??) element to the fore. And thanks to artist Christian Bunyan, I’ve now got a new cover that ups the creep factor by ten!

Here’s the before:

The Bureaucrat (Cover)

And the creeptastic AFTER!

Cover to THE BUREAUCRAT - A creepy office worker stands grinning with blank eyes in front of a wall of spooky blank eyes.

The Bureaucrat: An Uncanny Satire is available now in ebook (digital retailers) and paperback (Amazon).
