"You mean a bad heel? Couldn't I just, like, wear something other then sandals? No offence."

 Well, today is the day I was originally going to release the bloopers. But since I did it early, this seems like a good day for my author picture. I might get more when we go up for cover pictures. We shall see.
 HOWEVER, before I let you see the picture, I've an important question. VERY important and I dearly need your input. So, please input. 
 Ahem...how does one become a worm? Oh wait, wrong question.
 Pretend for a moment you are at the library. And you see this.

 Rows and rows and rows of unread, shelved books. So, you walk between book cases and look up and down. You aren't looking for author, just something new to read. And here is my question.
 What makes you pull a book out to look at the cover? What kind of font do you notice and are drawn to? A fancy font? A plan one? Something that reminds you of machines, mysteries, or fairy tales? Something bold and boxy or thin and elegant? 
 What colours attract you? Reds, purples, blues? What colours on the spines do you like? Or do you like spines with pictures? What colour lettering draws you most?
 Are you drawn to titles? If so, what kinds? What kind of words do they have in them which catches your eye. I know the typical ones. Blade. Death. Dragon. And so forth. But what wording gets YOUR attention?
 Basically, what on the spine of the book makes you pursue the book further? I'm a bit at a loss here and could use some help. Whatever you have to offer I'd be MOST grateful for! Right now I'm looking at colour wheels and stalking my library. (Who knew publishing meant studying colours?)
 Right now I have to go and get back to work.
 But first.
 May I present to you all....
 Me

 Was this evil of me?

 Yes.

 But really, I'm a spy. Were you expecting any different?

 Allons-y! I await your answers with that high, author-on-edge-ness

 P.S.
