Ok, so this is just about the hardest thing ever. lol.

Adrien English: #4
Monet Murders: #2
Fools Rush In: #1
Bite Club: #4

Picking for Adrien and Monet were the hardest because there was two of each I liked best. Actually, the same goes for Fools. :-)

Funny, I was just looking through those pictures we took a short while ago and was reminded that you'd tried on my shirt. :-)

I miss Bristol and everything we did there that week!

It's hard, yes, but some authors just pick the right guys. Vic and Jacob are great! I don't know where she found Vic's model, but I love all of his vic-like facial expressions!

I tend to agree that no face is better than the wrong face.

No t-shirt rule?! What kind of rule is that?

I simply like myself in blouses / (dress) shirts, even in totally informal context. Some people tend to put on t-shirts in informal occasions and shirts for special occasions.

LOL. Thank you, dear Goge! :-D

Thank you, everyone. I think it's so cool that Josh goes through all the trouble for having these contests. There were such wonderful submissions again! I absolutely love seeing all the different approaches and ideas. So many talented people out there! One can also see that everyone making the covers had had fun while doing them -- I know I did. :-)

Trio | 670 comments thanks Sabine, does anyone know how to get Josh's blog delivered auto to my email? some blogspot blogs do it, but I've never figured out how to get Josh's to do it.

If you use Outlook or Thunderbird you can receive the new posts via RSS.

I don't remember if blogspot delivers posts to you if you subscribe to the blog.

RSS stands for real simple syndication. It's a way to subscribe to website content.

Have a look at this tutorial for Outlook 2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Xr3g... . (Or google a tutorial for your version of Outlook.) You can add this url to your RSS folder to subscribe to Josh's blog: http://joshlanyon.blogspot.com/feeds/...


message 2239: by Trio (new)

Trio | 670 comments wow, thanks. I wonder why some blogspot blogs work while others don't. I'll look into it - I appreciate the help :)
