Today, since I was into the idea, we have this challenge, from Strawberry Singh’s blog:
Create a book cover to show your avatar in fiction. It does not have to be based on a real book, it can be one that you make up. Don’t forget to leave a link to your cover in the comments and share it in the Blog Memes flickr group.
I figured I’d just give it a passing go with an old photo – but the requirement that my avatar be depicted made this a bit trickier than I’d expected! However, I did finally find something that seemed appropriate, given how much this week has felt like being nibbled to death by geese.
I know, totally looks like an 80s Ballantine Fantasy cover, doesn’t it? The font probably helps here, somewhat, but…
And no, I’m not annoyed at anyone who’s looked for my attention on this, that, or the other. I’ve had a fair bit on my plate RL this week, so I haven’t had as much attention as I would like to have had. Hopefully, everyone’s doing well without me! 😉
Good, I was thinking I might have been driving you to the edge of that cliff,there.
Quite the opposite!! I just need to get some ‘me time’ under my belt: I’m feeling like jam that’s been spread a bit too thin, as someone or other put it.
I love that book cover-location. Yep, your choice of using that font works. 🙂
I think, emphasis THINK, that Yuki no Yume is gone, now. 😦
Your cover made me think ‘The Last Samurai’ with its lonely mountain top hideaway!
And funny about your title too, because I always thought that was the real title of Thomas Hardy’s book (if thats your reference?). I liu and I am going to read it now. But as to your book cover with avatar feature…..lol you nailed it.
Hardy is exactly where I was going! And I made the same misread, many moons ago.
I would love to read this book at that location! So, as I understand from the comments, this place is no longer inworld? 😦 Hope the geese don’t kill you.
Yep, I am not sure when it left. Ziki Questi is where I found out about the place; she may well have more details on her blog…
