Nope. Just reading the options for Cover Crush after a recent posting. I have only had this one once so far. (Crossing my fingers.)

OK...new question. How many nouns are in this title/subtitle? Particularly wondering about prophet-scientists.

How the Shaman Stole the Moon: In Search of Ancient Prophet-Scientists from Stonehenge to the Grand Canyon

Interesting title, Bea! Where did you find this book!

With the "-", you may take 'shaman-scientists' as one word :)

I assume you mean prophet-scientists not shaman-scientists, Tien. OK that will make 5 nouns by my count: Shaman, Moon, Prophet-Scientists, Stonehenge, and Grand Canyon.

Believe it or not, I own the book and have been trying to get around to reading it for some time!

[Tien]

oh oops, ha ha ha yes

I seem to be a bit muddle-headed these days... blech!

[Susan]

What do you think about this cover for the "Sober: plain background cover with only word of title" task?

That's what I chose it for, but looking up close, the part that seems solid has a tiny little all-over design in it. Not what I'd call an "image," but not a totally solid cover, either.

[Tien]

That's fine, Susan. It's not that obvious so still quite 'sober'

Thanks. I could've used it in Round 2 instead, but since I chose it for this, I'm glad to put it here.

Tien, would you accept this for the female cover?

Is it for Task 6? If so, there's this note at the bottom of that task that says "Face / head must be shown (ie. no headless bodies)"

Sorry...

I suspected that, but did not see the note. Too bad. I am trying to find an alternate book to the one I had planned. I think I have just lost my interest for now in the Isabel Allende book.

What about a head and chest but no clear body?

Nevermind, I can see more of the body when I enlarge the cover. I will use this one as female cover.

[Tien]

That's fine...looks like a girl / person anyway
Not sure exactly which task you're doing.

Doing 6A. Have already read for the male cover.

Ah you may or may not notice that I didn't specify that it has to be boy-girl pairing ;)
