Mood boards and such

When I’m writing a first draft, I don’t often utilize mood boards. I have a clear picture in my head and seeing other images distracts me from the story. I often save specific links for research, but it’s not until I dive into editing that I start searching for tangible proof of the novel I conceived.
My publisher is interested in what the story looks like to help with the cover art. And, this is also a fun distraction when I get stuck during a difficult editing session.
While writing Love Overboard, I had a mood board during the entire process. I didn’t add much to start, but I needed to keep track of various excursions and travel itineraries. If you want to see the entire board, click here. I set this story on my dream trip (crossing my fingers, I’ll be taking in a few years) and escaping into these online resources was easy.
Psst… Ready for a cover reveal?
I’m delighted to share the cover for my latest sweet romance from The Wild Rose Press, Love Overboard.
The story in a nutshell:
Fake Amnesia + Dream Vacation + Right Place /(Wrong Time)

Forced to share a stateroom with her ex-fiancé, Caitlyn fakes amnesia to stay on board her dream Alaskan cruise. Torn over deciding his future, Cruise Director Gregory tumbles into helping her. As they grow closer, unspoken secrets threaten to rip them apart, for good.
