- If you’re as fascinated by book cover design as I am, you’re probably curious about the designers behind some of the famous jackets in recent memory. This article gives readers a peek at designers’ inspirations and processes.
- We talk a good game here, at PQL, about valuing the art and craft of the book. What do we mean, exactly, by the word craft? This article gives you a pretty good sense.

Can you believe it’s already March, Quill fans? Where does the time go? Catch you here next week, same time and place, for another update on the literary lay of the land.
Cheers,
