Exciting times over at Fierce Ink Books as Emma Dolan wades into a new cover design for book 3 in the Adventures: No Matter How Improbable.

As you can tell from my purply changes to the header of this blog, I want Improbable to be an awesome shade of purple. I also suggested that because the first casebook takes place in Italy, we have an opportunity to turn away from the London skyline of the first two book covers.

This week I got some questions back about the little accents Emma used on books 1 and 2 and did I have any ideas for equivalent accents to use on Improbable.

The little mice on Jewel or the constellations on Thrice are good examples, so here is the list I sent back to Emma:

• Professor Archer’s spectacles
• The Eagle pin
• The button that Brian finds in the vault.
• The silver watch given to Portia by Gavin
• Falling stars? I feel like this book has a lot of loss in it, perhaps visually represented with falling stars…
