With the Swell cast, I started off a little bit telling about me a small tidbit into my backstory. I want to take this time to talk about book covers, not just your necessary normal book covers you see in the store, but yes, just like the phrase the word play, don't judge a book by its cover

Hey, thanks for asking this community question. And I I think that from my perspective, everything is linked. I think addiction recovery is a very important topic, but I don't think it defines anybody unless they desire that to be the case. And I think you've made a very clear case that you want to be looked at much deeper than the cover, which I love the metaphor. Thank you for that. I know it's double meaning for you

They are the most beautiful book covers I've maybe ever seen. And I had a lot of fear that I was going to get assigned a bad book cover. And as an author, a first time author not really have much to say about it. And I think bad book covers are really unfortunate because people do judge things by their cover. And in a very literal sense, I'll say, like, I wish people would judge my books by their cover because their cover is so much
