I'm already picturing it front and center (hopefully!) at Barnes and Noble, and plotting handing it to every person I see there.

A book cover is so personal and yet the whole internal publishing process so mysterious - yes, it's just packaging but you can't help getting attached to the image. (I blogged about this same thing back in july at popcorntheblog.com) I look forward to reading your book!

When my first book, The Gerbil Farmer's Daughter, came out three years ago, it had a pair of boots and gerbils on the cover--fairly literal and pretty cute. For the paperback, though, they switched the cover to a little girl running up a hill with flowering trees--nothing to do with the story, but they wanted to appeal to women readers, and the marketing team decided that women don't like rodents. The paperback cover was joyful, but so different that it really took me a long time to get used to it. I like your view here that the cover is important, sure, but it's NOT the book.
