Vote for my cover art!

I’m finishing the short story about Captain Lewis’, a prequel to Dreams of the Queen, and I’ve whipped up some simple covers. I know, these aren't the most amazing book covers in the world, but since I’m going to be listing the story for free, I really can’t afford to spend a few hundred dollars on a cover artist. So this is my digital art. Considering that I’ve only started learning photoshop this year, I think I’m doing decently. It helps that I’ve been a self-taught color pencil artist for most of my life, so I have a eye for color, design and balance all of which transfer between media. Unfortunately, photoshop has a steep learning curve, yikes!

Okie-dokie… So I’d like y’alls opinions. Which one catches your eye? Which one do you like the most? I need some quick answers because I’m going to be uploading next week.

You can either leave a comment here or use this link to go to my blog and vote on the official poll.

Sneak Peek Scene of Nightmares of the Queen

My rough draft of Lewis meeting up with Ta'mat again in 'Nightmares of the Queen', sequel to 'Dreams of the Queen'

Add it to your shelf! Nightmares of the Queen
_________________________________________________

The silver-haired, pale-skinned version of Cass stood in the middle of the room, in front of the small metal table bolted to the floor. Gracefully, almost in slow motion, she looked up—no longer staring at the hidden camera—and their gazes met. "Captain Lewis." Her smile was lazy, indulgent.

Lewis hesitated for one breath before stepping into her den. The door shut behind him with a deep metal clank. He was locked in with an insane goddess until he requested otherwise. A corner of his lips twitched—to smile or to frown?—hell, at the moment even he wasn’t sure. With his hands at the small of his back, clenching his sweat-soaked beret, and his legs shoulder-width apart, he waited just inside the door.

“So good of you to come," she said.
“As if I had a choice.”
“We all have choices.”
“Do we?”
Watching him as if he might wiggle off her hook any second, she ran her fingers over her lips. “Don’t be absurd, Captain.”
“Why did you ask for me, Ta’mat?”
“Ah.” She strolled closer, head tilted slightly. “I never could fool you. Pity.”
