Title: I got to pick the cover art for my novel today!!!
Post by: indianasmith on July 23, 2014, 09:44:23 PM
My release date is three weeks away - I have been on pins and needles all summer waiting to hold a copy in my hands.
This isn't quite that good, but it's pretty close - a preview at how the paperback edition will look!
I was given four options to choose from, all based on a suggestion that I offered.  I really liked this cover best:

The only thing I didn't like was the font on the title.  So I asked them to use the title font from this version:

They should get back to me with a final version tomorrow.  I am so excited!!!! :bouncegiggle: :bouncegiggle: :teddyr: :thumbup: :cheers:

Way to go dude. You should be very proud of yourself.
Btw, I like your choice of font. Let us know which one wins the day.

As soon as it comes out,  I will post links to all the sites where you can order a copy of your own.
If you want a signed copy and have Paypal, you can buy them direct from me - just send me a PM AFTER the 12th.

It looks good. Congrats, IndianaSmith. Or should we start calling you Lewis Ben Smith from now on?

I've been "Indiana Smith" since high school.  I'm kind of fond of the nickname now!

I think "By Indiana Smith" is the way to go.
Stephen Spielberg can go kick rocks.

I know they say do not judge a book by it's cover but if a book had this cover I would read it.
