I would enter something, but I'm working on multiple projects at the moment (and frankly, drowning in them).

Kinda my fault. Each book whose covers I asked you to do has seven 20 page chapters, but either way, may the best man or woman writer win!

Nah, the bookcovers are easy. It's Surface Deep and regular high school homework that are getting me (and the storyline for a yet unannounced game). I need to rethink my schedule.

Sure! One of the most overlooked things in the media industry, in my opinion, is that if you're going to make a series, you have to have the whole thing planned out from the very beginning. Of course, not everyone seems to know this, and that's why you get terrible sequels from time to time.

Now, back on topic. Any other entries?
