Question
I have an art company that creates original sci fi art work.I have built up quite a large fan base over the last 10 years and I would like to have My work published as cover art for books.I have tried many avenues, but can't seem to get any where......I just need to get info on how to get started.Can You give Me any advice?

Answer
Sounds most interesting.......and I wish I had a magic answer.

Depending on where you live....NYC is the center of publishing and
would suggest that you make contact with publishers who deal in
that genre of books.  Also...check out Art Calendar Magazine...it
is filled with articles for artists on a multitude of subjects
http://www.artcalendar.com/home.asp

Also...check Amazon.com and see what publishers are doing well in the
sci fi area...and you might find one or two that you could contact.

All the best,
