Once again, everything I had envisioned for the cover of my book ended up on the cutting room floor. I almost NEVER go with the epic vision I have created in my mind, but I am grateful I am open minded enough to explore so many different options so I end up with the best cover possible. I wanted the cover for Violet Addiction to reflect the story, I wanted the sultry stage presence that Violet hides behind, but I wanted her vulnerability too. I wanted to try and capture the chaos that consumes her days of drug addiction and I wanted to entwine her passion for music. That's a lot to convey in one image without it becoming messy and cluttered. I think I did it, the contrasting font in the title, the tornado of music, the stunning presence she portrays when she sings. I hope you love it as much as I do. I couldn't do these covers without my PA and mother who always take this journey with me. Here are a few snaps from the cover shoot. A MASSIVE thank you to Rhylee, my cover model, who was so still and patient while Angela caked her in makeup, then so blessedly easy to pose and photograph! *scroll to bottom of blog post for giveaway VIOLET ADDICTION COMING NOVEMBER 1STPre-order Links Amazon iBooks Barnes & Noble Makeup By Angela Cover design by Graphics Covered Photography by MY DAD COVER REVEAL GIVEAWAY For the chance to win a $25 Amazon Gift Card, follow this link
