As a novelist I have to give my ideas on my novel's cover both front and back cover.

And as you all know about my new novel that talks about planeted bombs in tourist hotel how people struggle to different decisions and opinions to save their lives.

I came up with this picture, on the left side of the front cover a beautiful site of the hotel with amazing sunshine, exotic plants, swimming pool, people enjoying themselves, and sunshine; but as you go to the middle of the cover you will see it is fading and on the right side you find out that the hotel is recked, turned into ruins, darkness took over, the swimming pool is kinda red, people are hiding from one and another and two roooms are in flames and smoke are coming out of the hotel

And at the bottom of the cover the title "The Ravage" will be written in light cream white and the letter R is broken from the tip. with the tagline "Their rooms are numbered. And their days are too"

what do you think? your opinion will mean alot to me

Wow, I think those are fantastic ideas! I love the title and the tagline is fantastic! I used to work in copywriting/advertising and I think your ideas will really sell.

I think I would love to read segments from it....it'll be like a teaser lol....but if you post the segments (actually, if I were you, I would do that in your journal and not on the boards), be prepared to keep us informed as to when you are finished so we can all get our copy of the book!! :D

I don't see it as a waste of time at all. I think it's exciting that you are writing a book! I think it's awesome that you would ask here about what we think of your ideas, you know?

Thank you and I know I will be watching for them! *Hugs*
