I just need to say something to everyone out there who’s considering self-publishing:
LOOK AT YOUR @$%! COVER BEFORE YOU HIT “PUBLISH”!
That’s all! I understand if you can’t afford great art. I realize that not everyone knows about font squirrel and thus feels stuck using the inappropriate fonts that came with your computer. I even get it if you’re not sure about the layout and accidentally put the text in an inappropriate place. But just, please, LOOK at the final picture that Amazon is going to put next to your book and ask yourself questions like, “Is ‘sheos’ really spelled that way?” or “Do I really want to have the title written on their twice?”
Just that would be enough to eliminate a good percentage of the lousy covers on this site—or at least vastly improve them.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

How do they happen? Just look at the author’s name; Miss Moe. Obviously Miss Larry and Miss Curly “helped” her.
