In the last week

In the last week I've received the galley proof and the basic cover layout for Bonds of Earth. The cover features a gorgeous photo taken by the talented Jennifer Dowell, who took the cover I had in my head and helped turn it into reality. Thanks so much to her and Dreamspinner for collaborating with me on it - it's going to be fantastic to see it in print. Cross your fingers for an early 2012 release! As soon as I get the official date, I'll be sure to put it up here.
