The Quote is Kind of Cheeseball, But I Like It
It looks like my publisher finalized the cover for my book. I say it looks like, because I know as much about this as an outsider. I found it today on Amazon, and so I assume it's the final cover. This post explains the situation a little more.

Nah, he doesn't look that much like Grohl. Although, I know what you mean, I did have to Wikipedia him to make sure.
My abhorrence for the cover waxes and wanes. The Grohl guy is definitely the best part of it, though.
