High Moor II - Moonstruck

As promised, an update on the new novel by Graeme Reynolds, High Moor II - Moonstruck, which is close to be publication. It features an image of mine on the front cover, of Finchale Abbey, County Durham, which is a ten minute drive from AC Towers. An earlier blog entry touches on the initial contact from Graeme and his illustrator, Stu Smith, but if you missed it, here it is. When Graeme first approached me regarding my photo of Finchale Abbey (shown below), I wondered how a colourful picture postcard shot would look on the cover of a Horror novel, especially if it followed the theme of the first book, High Moor. Stu Smith got it just right, and although there's a huge difference between my raw image and the reworked version that apperas as a backdrop on the High Moor II cover, the alerations work very well, in my opinion. The story is set in Finchale Abbey, and as you can see by the cover, bad things happen here! Graeme and the publishers are aiming for a February or March 2013 release date, so I'll update you as and when I get more news on that.

That's all for now. I've got more new photo's to share, on my blog page via the website, www.ashleycorr.com, so don't go far from your Internet connection - I'll be back soon with those shortly. Until then, enjoy what's left of your Christmas/New Year holiday, but if you're already back to the grind, never mind (he he he).
