SPARKTOPIA COVER REVEAL - JA Huss

I’m so comfortable to lastly current to you the quilt for my fall Romantasy launch, SPARKTOPIA!

This guide is angsty to the purpose of hyperventilation, spicy, just a little bit darkish, and, after all, overflowing with morally gray characters and plot twists! There are 4 first-person factors of view, three totally different story strains, two new worlds to discover, and NO CLIFFHANGER.

I labored on this cowl for a couple of yr. The guide had a special title once I first began writing it as a result of I at all times have a title earlier than I begin writing as a result of it simply helps me with world constructing. But about half means by way of writing it, this phrase, SPARKTOPIA, made an harmless look as graffiti on a ceiling. I don’t even know the place it got here from as a result of I used to be simply type-type-typing away one morning and this picture on the ceiling didn’t imply something on the time. I solely talked about it to construct up the ambiance of the tower by which the scene takes place as a result of graffiti on the ceiling implies a sure sort of dwelling house and this was the texture I used to be going for.

But as quickly as I wrote it, I knew it was my title. And then, as a result of I had already made a number of iterations of the quilt with the unique title, I instantly went again into Photoshop and got here up with this. I labored on it for a pair months afterward–simply form of shifting sure parts round, and looking for the suitable palms and the way I wished to show the Spark, after which I needed to discover a font to make all these symbols on the arms. So it took some time to get to the end line, however the very day I got here up with the brand new title I KNEW what this cowl seemed like. I simply needed to discover a strategy to carry it into actuality.

So I hope you find it irresistible as a lot as I do. ????
