What the…? I thought the title was T35. Not that it matters. NONE of this makes sense.

There are four previous books, all with identical titles. *gack*

Wow, that really tells me a lot about the story. Not.

It makes me think of a technical manual. When I was in college in the late 1990s, I took a statistics class where we used a software package called STATA.

Looks like a textbook I had back in 8th grade.

Is Excel becoming an option for designing book covers too? The wonders never cease…

Nothing works here. Especially not for fiction. If the cover is supposed to evoke a feeling for what a book is about, this feels deadly boring.

Looks like a practice illustration from a learn-Adobe course.
1. Draw X size circle. Fill yellow.
2. Draw Y size circle. Duplicate and fill with two other colors.
3. Draw and fill rectangles with 100% black.
4. Add type to rectangles and reverse color to create white type.
5. Experiment with different fonts and sizes.

Yawn.

You don’t even need an Adobe product. MS Paint will do just fine!

I was thinking back to when Adobe Illustrator first came out and I was learning it. (Yes, I’m that old. 🙂 ) The book (Yes, it came with an actual printed book about the product and how to use it. Amazing!) came with simple suggestions to learn to use the tools (at that time I believe there were about six), and if you tried all the stuff out you ended up with a page that looked a lot like this cover!
