So, without further ado, the final (I hope) cover of The Forest of Hands and Teeth (which is scheduled to come out March 24, 2009, btw if I haven't mentioned already :).

Hello all! Confession: I have become an obsessive self-googler. Yes, it is so bad that at times I have resorted to self-googling even though I have a google alert set up (I was rewarded once for doing this which has only hurt my efforts to reduce said self-googling). But one thing that I've realized in this madness is that I haven't posted the most recent version of my cover!! Granted, there aren't HUGE differences between the first cover I posted and the most recent, but enough that I cringe just a little when I see the old one and feel remiss about not posting the new one :)

More About MeI used to be a lawyer who measured my time by 6 minute increments. For a few years, I was able to devote one or two of those increments to this blog a few times a week. In October 2007 sold my debut novel, THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH, to Delacorte Press (it came out March 10, 2009 and hit the New York Times bestselling list in 2010). In October 2008 I quit my lawyer job and now I'm a full-time writer. My second book, THE DEAD-TOSSED WAVES, is a companion to the first and came out March 9, 2010. The third in the series, THE DARK AND HOLLOW PLACES, released March 22, 2011. My first anthology, FORETOLD: 14 Tales of Prophecy and Prediction, will be out fall 2012 as well as my first middle grade novel, INFINITY RING: DIVIDE AND CONQUER, Book 2 of Scholastic's new multi-author/multi-platform series.

Awesome! Must be an incredible feeling.
Thanks for sharing all your publishing stories, Carrie. It's quite an inspiration for those of us out here in the trenches.
I can't wait to read your book.
It looks great, Carrie. Congratulations. =o)
prince, it was an amazing feeling to get the cover -- so unexpected because for a while so many YA covers didn't have faces (and I don't describe my main character very much so I didn't expect a face on mine). But I LOVE the cover!!
So glad you like it b.e.!
The cover is amazing! I can't wait for your book to come out. :)
Fabulous! And I have the date marked on my calendar!
Can't wait for it to come out! I love the cover--but what changed? I don't see it... Artistic nuances fascinate me.
Looks beautiful! Can't wait to read it.
it's so evocative! congratulations and looking forward to the debut date. the self googling is an addiction!!
Thanks y'all! So glad you like it! Brooke, they changed the background color a bit -- it looks less teal to me. And they also gave her a breast reduction - haha!
