I just discovered that Janette has produced covers for three (more) of my recordings! (The First Battle of Bull Run, Little Wars, The Lost Princess of Oz)
It's always a lovely thing to have a cover for your book - it makes it (at least) seem important and valuable and worth listening to. So I say, "Thank you very much!" :9:

You are more than welcome. While I have you, I must tell you that I really, really, REALLY enjoyed your recording of The Lost World. Let's say we're even! :D

Thanks so much,

Janette

It's time to say "thank you!" again to Janette!

I've discovered new covers by her on my recordings of:
- The Gettysburg Address
- How to Live on 24 Hours a Day
- More Goops and How Not to Be Them
- New Discoveries in Jamestown (that's a particularly classy looking one!)
- Floor Games
- Hans Brinker or The Silver Skates
- Greylorn (another extra-nice one!)

Janette, you're turning my head by doing so many covers for my work! (Now, may I request "The Pathfinder"?)

Many, many thanks for your kind words. :D I'll get started on Pathfinder!

Any other requests?

Take care,

Janette

I've just uploaded the cover to "The Pathfinder." It should be visible as soon as Bart or HokusPokus do their thing.

Thanks so much,

Janette

A year ago, I started this thread in appreciation to Janette. Now I wonder, is she stalking me??? (In a good way!)

I just took stock, and I think this is the list of new covers she's made since my last post:

Green Mansions
How to Live on Twenty-Four Hours a Day
Mr. Trunnell, Mate of the Ship "Pirate"
The Outline of Science
The Point of Honor
The Time Machine
Tom Swift and His War Tank
Triplanetary
and -
The Adventures of Pinocchio - This one appeared within hours of the book being posted!

Between Janette and a few others I'll be thanking in a few minutes, there is practically nothing left of my solo work that is 'uncovered.'
Thanks again, Janette, for lending an air of distinction to my own catalog; I appreciate it! :thumbs:

If I am stalking you, it's meant in the most flattering way! However, I cannot take credit for the 2 covers above---hats off to the incredible cover-making team at Librivox for those! Woo-hooo! We rock! :9:

Many, many thanks for your kind words,

Janette

I maintain I'm , er, half-right. You made me question my notes, so I went back to check; "Tom Swift & His War Tank" credits you, whether or not you did it. "Pinocchio" does not; I was wrong, and now I'll go thank Kathryn!

But yes, YOU GUYS ROCK!!
