Create Your Own Book Cover

Cozy Book Reader posted a activity where visitors can create their own their own CD cover. The idea is cute and I’m adapting it to fit the theme of my blog – writing.  Here’s how you can create your own pen name and bookcover.

 1.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on the page is your pen name.

2.http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your book.

3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your book cover.

4. Use whatever you want to make a nice cover and post the official result. 

Take a look at the fantastic cover! The name of the book is warm three winter months. Isn’t that just fabulous? I’m going to write a song called warm three winter months. It’s too much of a beautiful title to pass up.  

I love the picture. A young tomboy with a peace sign. Terrific! 

And my pen name – Titan. Who is titan? Here’s the definition I found: (Greek mythology) any of the primordial giant gods who ruled the Earth until overthrown by Zeus; the Titans were offspring of Uranus (Heaven) and Gaea (Earth). 

Overall, this book cover fits me perfectly.  

Go ahead give it a try. I can’t believe how excited I am over this. Oh the little things. Wish I had more of them.

    Your cover is also cool, Aaron. I mean, Gareth Holmes. :-)

    Doug, isn’t it weird how your book title matches the book cover? Also, I wonder if “peanut” stands for kucinich and space stand for “aliens.” :-)

    Ah, give my little peanut a break! It isn’t like he claimed to be abducted and anally probed or anything! Altho he was kinda screwed, come to think about it. ;-)

    You know I love the little guy, but he does look like an alien. I’m just sayin’. :-)

    Okay, you’ve got a point. But in keeping with the topic of this post in particular, you really can’t judge a book by its cover.
