Middlemarch: The Cover!

As might have been predicted, writing mean things about Serena Williams destroyed me creatively for a number of days, then my computer stopped dead. Back on a new computer and prepared to be contrite, I just have to say, first, that I am who I am and it is what it is. There's the heat of the moment to consider, as well.

HOWEVER:

I am mainly posting so as to display the second and far superior iteration of the new cover! Files under review at CreateSpace, second proof back this week to me, new novel out  to THE WORLD next week!
