Gifted CA's

now filling our ranks here at

Muse It Up Publishing, Inc.

The covers this past year have blown me away in ways few in the earlier years did, which explains the final numbers and also the ultimate winner. Just the number of people who actually took the time to

VOTE shows how great our visual department has become since the beginning.

I'm going to name the winners in reverse order...The following covers are tied with ONE vote each, making these artists tied with these covers for

And from the Muse it Hot Side,
