As in Cover Reveal.
Some of you may know that when I finish a first draft, I reward myself with a book cover design (I nag my husband until he finally caves and designs it for me). Since I finished drafting my current WIP last week, lookie what I have to share with you all today:
What do you think? I love it, of course. And now I can't wait to get it into querying shape, because then I'll reward myself with an actual hold it in my hands and feel the wind on my face coming off the flipped pages tangible copy.
How do you reward yourself when you hit certain writing goals?

I love your cover. I like the image you've used and the font.
It is really an amazing cover. Wow.
Gorgeous cover. Like the power of the downturned eyes. You and your hub are a super team.
Love it! It reminds me a bit of the cover for THE PLEDGE, but is also new and different :)
Dear Dan,
You should design book covers. That's all.

Wow! That is a great cover - intriguing/slightly mysterious. Your hubs is talented!
Lovely! I usually reward myself by buying--you guessed it--books!
By the way, your blog is beautiful.
Clare-thanks! I've had my eye on this image for awhile for this very cover. I'm so excited to see it come together.
Crack you whip-Thanks. I love it.
Kittie-My hubs is the best.
A.K.-Ooh, The Pledge is a nice cover.
Taryn-Go find a graphic designer boyfriend. :)
Melodie-Cool...that's a good thing. He IS talented! :)
the Muse-buying books-YES! Thanks for the blog love.
Nice cover. It looks very mysterious.
No special rewards for me, but I haven't hit many writing goals either.

Tossing It Out
I love that cover! It's very powerful. I shall have to read Remake when it comes out.
Your hubby should do this for real! I like he covers way better than some published book covers!
Holy crap! This is amazing!
I'm usually not a 'person on the cover' fan. But I REALLY love this.
Beautiful! I love the font!

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. IT IS PERFECT! Seriously. The definite female look of the model. The male/female choice conveyed by the cool font. The cultish, moody feel of the cover. How the title is almost a watermark. The expression on the girl's face. W.O.W.
The cover is visually beautiful. I like the way your husband extended the letters R and K. It's so cool to have your husband at home making the book covers for you. It's a team work.
oh my wow on the title-it's perfect.
Arlee-thanks.
MIkazuki-Yay. my first customer. :)
Angie-Some covers I see out there...I just don't know how it could have crossed so many human eyes and still get approved.
Kelley-Ooh, thanks.
Jaycee-From the master of covers herself...thanks.
Katie-This means a lot from someone who knows the story...it totally fits, yes?
Giora-He is my slave. :)
Robin-It was my idea to do the male/female thing, but I think it looks great.
I think this is my favorite cover of the ones you shoed me. It's clever and clean and really conveys a great mood. Your hubby is talented. :)
I meant SHOWED me. My fingers, gah.
MIchelle-yay. It's my favorite too!
HI it's been days since you posted this but I am still OBSESSED with this cover. Especially now that I've read REMAKE.
