Three years after the original publication of Spirit of the Dragon, on the verge of publishing Blood of Dragons and concluding the Yokai Calling series, I began my hunt for a cover artist for the omnibus edition of the series. I wanted to go big because until that point in my author career, I'd opted to design my own covers instead of hiring an artist.
In hindsight? Doing it all myself probably wasn't the best idea... but I had a lot of fun doing it, learned a lot about covers and design in general, and got to play around with another artsy thing that I don't get to do very often! So all in all, no regrets, but by the time the end of the series came along, it was time to splurge on a pro. :)
