Writing a book is hard enough without choosing a book cover. In the spirit of not using AI, I made my book cover for the novel I have coming out this summer. I actually made the last two book covers I put out, too. I put my book cover up against three other book covers I paid for and put them all up for a vote with dozens of friends. Of course, everybody chooses covers other than the one I made from scratch to avoid AI. Then, among the three book covers I didn't make, the consensus was split. So, that was no help. A friend came up with a solution that I think is genius, and I might just do it because I'm sick of looking at, deciding on, and having book covers rejected. In the spirit of The Beatles' White Album, attached is my new book cover. I hope you like it.
