A fork in the road? Where? Oh, perhaps someone dropped a dinner fork under one of the wagons?

Some kleptomaniac took it. (Apologies to Yogi Berra.)

Are these gas-powered wagons? If not, then the oxen or horses are missing. Can’t get to a fork in the road when you’re wagons are unhitched and parked in a sand lot.

That’s what you end up with when you take a pic on your phone at a museum. Then you ruin it further with a standard Word font and bad title placement.

I am beginning to believe that title/author text templates are superimposed on cover art by automated software in a large segment of the indie small press.

(I would complain that it looks like many small presses hire blind book cover builders because they work cheaper than people who can see what they have done, but I would be accused of lacking empathy for the disabled, so I won’t.)

“There’s blank space at the top of the photo — why isn’t the title banner up there? Why???”

The cover designer is leaving room for the Holy Ghost.

Yeah but all that blank space? That’s NEGATIVE space. We don’t want to get negative around here.

Maybe the title *was* up there originally, but it was there for so long that eventually, like those wagon wheels, it sank.
