Full Moon Challenge - Phase 2

[Dee]

What is it about the full moon that makes it such a feature in paranormal and other romance novels. There are so many myths to do with the full moon, to include:
1. Sleeping under the light of a full Moon will make a woman pregnant.
2. A full Moon during harvest means a good crop.
3. A new Moon brings good fortune.
4. Werewolves howl and witches ride during a full moon

If anyone has read The Girl Who Chased the Moon, they would know that each full moon that occurs has a different name, and thus a new challenge is born!

im in...

[Ms.soule]

Question - do we have any specifications on what makes a "spring" cover? I've got a manga cover with pastels & flowers...not sure that's going to be enough to qualify it though:

[Dee]

flowers work for a spring scene...my judging criteria (if you ask me) is does it has an idea of spring on it - new flowers, bright colors after the dull of winter
