I’m happy to say there are some solid improvements in today’s batch. Also some “can’t fix it if you don’t know what the problem is,” and a couple of suckerpunches.

IMHO, the top for:
Most improved: The Forgotten place
Most horribly jacked up: Scapularis
Yeah, Scapularis is like a huge middle finger to its potential audience.
The new Scapularis is proof that, no matter how bad a cover might be when you start, it’s nothing that the Amazon cover templates can’t make worse.
That leaning towers of legos template repeating the author and new title over the old just ticks me off.
A Mermaid in Love’s author: “Why isn’t it selling? What am I doing wrong? I’ve got a sexy-looking gal on the cover…”
Author’s drinking buddy: “You wanna know what I think it needs? It needs the title plastered over her bewbs, that’s what!”
Why does the new cover for “Serene” feature a picture of the ruins of Masada? Just asking.
“You have to read the book to understand the cover.”
My headgear scarlet [hatred] for ticks runs so deep that I actually consider getting one into a poorer resolution and obscured by title and other parts of a template an improvement.
I’ll give a golf clap 👏 for the Jackal and the Space Slavers improved cover at i can say it’s not generic like the last one.
As for the new cover of Scapularis.
Do 👏 not 👏 use 👏 templates 👏 on 👏 kindle 👏 books 👏 it 👏 never 👏 looks 👏 good! 👏
