It took some doing, and several false starts, almost right but not quite images, but at long last we've got the cover nailed, I believe, for my chapbook, due out next month from New Michigan Press. Here it is.

Where did the image come from?
Who gets the credit for this perfect cover?
The image is a North Atlantic pelagic jellyfish. Ander Monson, editor of NMP, did the design but I found the image, which was an ordeal of clicking through a couple thousand pics, probably. I'm super pleased.
it's lovely.
