Book cover ideas
I am seriously overwhelmed by the number and quality of your ‘vicar’s study’ contributions. Loads of ideas and I am truly grateful. Seriously, especially as lots of them were on Saturday afternoon during prime sermon preparation time. Ok, this isn’t an idea to enable me to draw a cartoon as such, but I do need…
I am seriously overwhelmed by the number and quality of your ‘vicar’s study’ contributions. Loads of ideas and I am truly grateful. Seriously, especially as lots of them were on Saturday afternoon during prime sermon preparation time.
Ok, this isn’t an idea to enable me to draw a cartoon as such, but I do need an idea for a cartoon. I need to choose one cartoon for the book cover.
It needs to be:
(a) Good
(b) Not too complex, perhaps ruling out something like the church kitchen
(c) An image that is representative of my current work
(d) An image that will make the casual browser want to see more / look inside / buy the book
Any thoughts? I’m not asking for your favourite cartoon necessarily, (I will be doing that for another reason in a week or two), but one that you can picture on the front of a book. The cartoon on the left is one idea, being one of my better known ones. But it could be something from the Church Times ones (which are not yet on this site).
I suspect asking about this goes against of all sorts of protocols. Book covers are probably supposed to be decided upon by a team of publishing types in a darkened room, but… what the heck. It also could be construed as a bit of an introspective ego thing asking about a book cover, but in my defence let me assure you that it is a genuine tricky decision for me.
Thanks again for your help over the weekend and in advance for this one.
