Let 100 Scope Notes know that you made one by commenting here, and it'll be added to the gallery!
Here are my covers (I created more than one, so the 1st is my "debut", and the others are the next ones I "published", LOL):
I really like how this one turned out, and my writer alter ego's name is cool.
Guess who this is?Clue: it's an artist.
I don't know what to think of this one.I like how the fonts look, but the back of the girl...
Now you give it a try!
If you do, let me know! I'd love to see your YA debut novel's cover! LOL
xo,
I think I'm going to keep doing this, it was so much fun!
Next ones will be for my short stories!

The last one is my fav...Kelly!
But I think I'd grab any if I saw them in the bookstore!
I'll have to try this, sounds like fun!
xo,
Ivy
Love those covers!
It makes you wonder if perhaps this is what publishing houses actually do sometimes...
That is really a cool exercise.
Looks so fun! I love them!!
