Last month I debuted a new feature here on the blog called “Books I Didn’t Write”. It won 2 Emmys and 4 Grammys, so I thought we could try and make it a monthly thing.
Here’s what I did: I loaded this page of random flickr images and had to pick one of them to create a cover a for book. I reloaded the page and repeated 6 more times to come up with 7 total images. Then I used my hack photoshop skills to turn these images into the 7 book covers for books I didn’t write. This time I also included a link to the original image on Flickr, so each artist can be recognized for their outstanding work.
