Yes, it is a memoir, consequently about the past, which I conceptualize as facing left (because of our writing system), but to the reader, it is the future, so face right. Clear?Chas S.

I now think that, if you are going to change the cover, you should go with something quite different, like the photo of the building against the mountains, the second I believe of your original four options.<br /><br />Either that or the concept of the new cover is that it is a bookend of the first cover, in which case perhaps the positioning of the you and the dog should be opposite the positioning of Betsy and the dog, as in one of the options in this post. But really I think that's weaker than something entirely new.<br /><br />DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732486.post-33369253019576672952014-04-14T13:41:29.199-07:002014-04-14T13:41:29.199-07:00I still like the photo for the NEW cover--WHY redo...I still like the photo for the NEW cover--WHY redo it with the same old one? Don't the dumbo publishers realize people often get multiple copies of the same book BECAUSE of different covers?...I got my cheapo copy of "The Goshawk" in the mail--nothing you didn't have illustrated in the earlier post. A nice 1978 copy(Viking Press) with the stylized drawing. Now I'm wanting to get a nice hardback copy of "The Once And Future King" to replace my tattered old paperback of that title.......L.B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
