Congratulations on shipping your book! This is slightly off topic but something I've always wondered. Who picks the organism featured on the cover?

- jonshariat 9y agoIts random really. Whatever the illustrator is interested in haha. We got another animal initially and it was um... kinda ridiculous. So considering the serious topic of the book I campaigned for the man-of-war as the animal. Aside from being a beautiful creature, as a nerd I find it REALLY interesting. Wiki - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_man_o%27_war https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_man_o%27_war Specifically this tidbit: >the Portuguese man o' war is not a jellyfish but a siphonophore, which, unlike jellyfish, is not actually a single multicellular organism, but a colonial organism made up of specialized individual animals called zooids or polyps. My post explaining why I chose it (plus link to awesome photos from NG) - http://us10.campaign-archive1.com/?e=[UNIQID]&u=b2a9f2c796e250794d7fae7de&id=f4d1f975a6 http://us10.campaign-archive1.com/?e=[UNIQID]&u=b2a9f2c796e2...
