Fake Book Covers, Round Two!

After all the great input (and I appreciate it!) on Livejournal, here's round two of the first fake cover!



I lightened the background and ran a light green gradient over it to make it contrast more starkly with the dark swatch, ran the author name to the edges to match the title, and increased the size of "THAT." Ditched the words at the top, and made the little memoir bit not-a-script so it doesn't contrast so starkly. Feedback welcome!

And now, for another small design amusement, here's my attempt at a horror cover:



There is actually a chance I will someday publish a horror novel called "The Twisted Ones" since I have it about 30K written, but it's a ways off. (Actually, I should probably put a THIRD pen name on these suckers so that people don't trip over the images a few years hence and think I've written books I haven't written...unngh. Too many of me! Still, maybe I'll finally get a chance to be Ingrid Quaile...)
