Reproduced or otherwise. It just bears a striking similarity to my own handwriting. That was all the idea of the designer, Tony Sahara. I doubt he had any idea how I write. (Although I even used to draw a line through my zeds, German-style, and I still do that for sevens.)<BR/><BR/>As for typecasting, I don't know. Maybe he's just really good at the sports covers. I had a different designer for my mysteries, but I'm sure Tony has done other kinds of covers as well . . .Alan Gratzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528858793775172285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-28289797568374765242008-07-14T16:11:00.000-04:002008-07-14T16:11:00.000-04:00Looks fantastic, Alan.

I really dig your Walt Disney-esque signature (whether it was a natural evolution or intelligent design!).<BR/><BR/>I'm really excited for this book. I have two young nephews (well, first cousins but we say nephews) who I want to give this to. Big baseball fans.<BR/><BR/>And, you know, I'm excited for my copy as well. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Does this cover artists specialize in baseball themed covers, or are you just typecasting?Brian McNamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02284395296499925810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-49205210013916977182008-07-14T16:08:00.000-04:002008-07-14T16:08:00.000-04:00Yes, and it's a royal pain in the ass, let me tell...Yes, and it's a royal pain in the ass, let me tell you -Alan Gratzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528858793775172285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5813155461240201466.post-10237172491398353872008-07-14T14:40:00.000-04:002008-07-14T14:40:00.000-04:00Wow, are you writing your name on all of them?Wow, are you writing your name on all of them?Fabricationisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05254272545569139083noreply@blogger.com
