I, Plankhead, have decided to take the plunge and publish my novel,
The House of William T. Frehling. But there's one thing it needs...jacket art. And my art simply isn't good enough to show up on a book. That's why I'm enlisting the deviantART community to do it for me.
I have the first 7 chapters of the book in my gallery, which I will graciously link you to here:
That should give you enough of a taste of the book to understand what I'm looking for in a cover. Now...
THE GUIDELINES ZOMG
Use the following templates to create the book cover. There is no spine design.
Front cover:
[link]
Back cover:
[link]
Be sure that somewhere on the front cover, it reads, "The House of William T. Frehling" and "Something Resembling a Novel by Zack Green"
The back cover should say the following:
"This book has no plot. It does have a deep surrealistic narrative filled with carefully planned story twists, complex symbolism, political intrigue, and self-referential satire, but that implies nothing about a plot.
Rangsey Aaronson, just out of grad school with a useless Art History Ph.D., is moving into a new house, and needs to get some of his papers signed by the landlord, William T. Frehling. However, entering his landlord's office transports him into a strange alternate universe contained in the confines of one enormous mansion. And what's worse, Frehling is nowhere to be found.
Rangsey befriends a resident of the house named Tara, and with her they set off on a quest to find Frehling within this enormous acid trip, finding themselves in a series of completely inconsequential situations along the way while constantly being hunted by a man with three eyes under his nose named, well, the man with three eyes under his nose."
THE PRIZES ZOMG
First place: A copy of the book WITH YOUR COVER ON IT!!!! And a one year subscription
Second place: A six month subscription and a copy of the book
Third place: A three month subscription and a copy of the book.
So, get to it! Wheeeeee!

Contractions make the apostrophe seem so much more philanthropic, as it uses its efforts to unite rather than to hoard.
