A- MUSE-in Cover Revolt

A- MUSE-in Cover Revolt
Things ARE changing Join The Revolt.

Monday, June 16, 2014

Change is in the air, and nowhere is that more prominent than at the multi award winning publishing house, MUSEITUP PUBLISHING.

Now, as we approach our FOURTH anniversary, more and more the covers are becoming COSMIC events  that will be calling the generations behind us to jump on the Muse It Up Bandwagon...

Good covers are...

nice..


GREAT COVERS 

are 



Novas in the making.They'll be lighting up the reading skies for centuries to come.

So, from this point on, instead of a Holiday Muse Cover Parade...every week I am going to spend a few hours looking through both stores and choose the covers that make my eyes go WOW...During this process I will keep a list and give the covers 1-5 stars...then go back and from the five stars choose one from each side.

So I'm off now to trawl through the Muse It Up and Muse It Hot Publishing Book Stores and look through the covers...Any that call to me, I will showcase here.


I'll be back with the winner of the FIRST....on the mainstream side in a second.

I found the first Mainstream OMG cover and it is truly worthy of being thought of as OMG.

Check back each day...it's going to take some time catching up.

Once I've caught up, I will only announce one new cover a day or as they become available.

If you have a Muse cover you want me to consider, please e-mail me offlist at Spatzdkat1212 AT yahoo DOT com. 

At the end of the year, after Christmas and right before New Year's. the cover with the most votes will win that Cover Artist a special gift, and the author attached to it, a Ladybug Lin Blog Post showcase. (Ginger Simpson calls what I do, Stationary Trailers.)

I'll need to ask for votes...You can vote for as many covers as you want, but please only one comment/vote per cover. 

The first cover...

(drumroll please)...is....
The_Girl_and_the_502ec26f0e733.jpg
The Girl & The Dragon...Book by Alice M. Roelke, cover by Charlotte Volnek.


OKAY Charlie how does it feel to be FIRST in MY COVER HALL OF FAME?

The SECOND Mainstream was nominated by the author of the book...now I can assure you not all authors LOVE the covers they get, so when an author nominates a cover of THEIRS from a particular Cover Artist...that speaks VERY highly of the Cover Artists skill, professionalism, and willingness to bat the cover ball back and forth.

Marsha R. West gives Charlotte Volnek her nod...which is a good thing, on the sale page for Marsha's book, the CA is not yet listed, so I would have had a hard time figuring out which CA to give credit to...



TRUTH BE TOLD by Charlotte Volnek is officially plugged into the Revolt on the mainstream side at position TWO



HOT, HOT, HOT

side of Muse....Wish me Well!

OKAY...I'm back...and the cover that popped most for me is done by an artist I must have missed when she joined us...but her work, at least what I've seen of her covers so far...


DYNAMITE!

COLD DARKNESS by Michele Micheal Rake, 

cover done by Shirley Burnett

There you have our first two covers 

Okay we're now at more than two...so the Hall is growing bigger for those in the running for the End of year Cover Extravaganza from both sides now!

Help me make it a Count-down-to 2105 that will out revel Ryan Seacrest's bringing down of the Ball in New York.

Time to name the second in the HOT covers...What cover will it be, and what CA will either add to their current presence or 
It's not new...but every time I see this cover, my taste buds begin to drool... A powerful book by John Rosenman, the OMG cover is by NIKA DIXON.
