LillyMo asked James J. Cudney:

As the author, how do you choose a book cover? Have a great [day, weekend, new year, or whenever you come across this question]. :)

James J. Cudney Thank you. It's mid-Sunday afternoon, so I will enjoy the rest of the day!

My publisher's team asks me to send a few critical concepts to include in a cover, plus pick a photograph or image that speaks to me in terms of the story. From there, they send a few ideas and we go back and forth until both are happy.
