Beguiled Book Interior

,

Once upon a time, I worked as a typesetter, so I have a great affection for type. I love flourishes in book interiors, that extra touch that perfectly suits the content. So, recently, I began to think about my POD titles and how they could be prettier inside.

Here’s the first page of Beguiled, my first book with illuminated caps. This picture is from the proof – it’s a teensy bit blurred because I wasn’t as steady as would be ideal. The type is perfectly crisp.

First Page of Beguiled, by Claire Delacroix and Deborah CookeThese illuminated caps suit the content very well and they look terrific – in my humble opinion. 🙂 What do you think?
