I\u2019m sure there are a number of possible scenarios. For Bernadette and me, I give her an idea of the storyline and, if I have an inkling as to what I want to feature on the cover, I\u2019ll tell her that. Sometimes she nails it right away. Other times, we go back and forth a couple of times before we decide it\u2019s purrfect. One thing I don\u2019t have to spend a lot of time describing is the catitude I want. I describe it and she captures it. Check out her site and you\u2019ll see how talented and intuitive she is when it comes to cats. Here&#8217;s a sneak peek at the latest cover&#8211;book to debut soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>People love my Klepto Cat Mystery book covers.
