Title: Congrats to Elantris
Post by: PixelFish on August 25, 2006, 04:52:28 PM

Hi, I'm new to the forums, but I just wanted to congratulate Brandon, and his cover artist, Stephan Martiniere, for winning the Chesley award for best hardcover.

Saw it on Irene Gallo's blog here:

Wow, I didn't even know that Elantris was up for it. Congratulations. Our art director, Matt Adelsperger, was up for one, too. Since I've been out of the office, I don't know whether he got an award.

Just checked: I guess he must have been up against Irene Gallo, and she says she won, so apparently not. But Matt is a very good art director, and he deserved to be nominated.

Personally I believe that this award is only going to be followed by many many more.
