There are some truly stunning books in the world. The books I’m going to show you in this post . . . are not those stunning books. I decided to live out my book designer dream and create some covers for pretend books. The results are not great. I’m not an artist. I jumped into this project without doing any research whatsoever. I want you to have realistic expectations before we wade into the mess I made. You’re probably going to cringe at my creations.

The first step to creating a book cover is learning what the book is about. For my pretend books, I Googled “random book title generator.” (Yes, those exist.) I played with different generators and picked the . . . um . . . stupidest titles. Then I created covers to match the titles. Here’s what happened:

Top Ten Tuesday: Jobs I’d Have If I Were Fictional

 


Have you ever come across a fascinating job in a novel and thought, Is that job real? Am I too old for a drastic career change? That’s what we’re talking about today! I wish I was a fictional character so I could have these awesome “jobs.” We should probably put “jobs” in quotes because some of these activities are seriously stretching the definition of that word.
