If you love beautifully designed books—especially collector hardcovers with elegant artwork and a dash of Regency intrigue—welcome! I’m Camille Elliot, and I write Christian Regency romantic suspense: think Pride and Prejudice meets Mission: Impossible , with spies, slow-burn romance, and a thread of faith. My ongoing series, Lady Wynwood’s Spies, follows a group of aristocratic spies uncovering a dangerous conspiracy in Regency-era England. You don’t have to know the books yet to enjoy this post—today I’m taking you on a behind-the-scenes tour of the Special Edition hardcovers and paperbacks I’m creating for the series. We’ll look at: why these collector editions exist in the first place, how Kickstarter makes them possible, and what makes each Special Edition feel extra special on your shelf. Whether you’re completely new or you’ve been reading the series for years, I hope you’ll enjoy this peek into the visual world behind the books. Why Hardcovers? Why Kickstarter?...
