Create your own YA cover!

This was fun!! I could have played with this forever but I finally had to stop. It was so interesting to have the random title. author name and photo come together. There were other photos that I would have rather used but I played by the rules. This was still a good one but I didn't have much use for the newspaper she was holding. So, how did I do?

Other blogs with great covers:
Karen's Book Nook
Book Reviews by Jess
A Lush Budget Production
The Story Siren

Create Your Debut YA Cover:

1. Go to “Fake Name Generator” or click http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/

2. Go to “Random Word Generator” or click http://www.websitestyle.com/parser/randomword.shtml

The word listed under “Random Verb” is your title.

3. Go to “FlickrCC” or click http://flickrcc.bluemountains.net/index.php

Type your title into the search box. The first photo that contains a person is your cover.

4. Use Photoshop, Picnik, or similar to put all together. Be sure to crop and/or zoom in.

5. Post it to your site along with this text.

    I found this on another site and did it. It was a riot. Yeah, I could have spent lots of time doing that too. My word was Fish and when I put that into the photo thingy I got a woman's face with bulging eyes and pursed lips. She actually resembled a gold fish close to the bowl edge. How r u anyway?
