see if you can guess

which one of these is the actual cover, and which of them I designed.



ok so i know its really obvious, but i think mine are at least contenders. i mean... i did mine all on my own in one weekend, and the actual cover was scrutinized by a group of people over a period of weeks, with various ideas pooled together from said scrutinizers. i mean, the designer himself—upon my congratulations for a cover well, well done—refused sole credit on this because it was such a team effort. and thats my company for you folks... a team. and we never take all the credit for ourselves, no, its always, "well... so-and-so did help me with it..."

i like my job. not only for the people and the environment... but just for the sole fact that i get to look at books, book covers, and type,
a l l
d a y
l o n g.

it really is a grand old time.

ps no cheating—no looking on amazon until after you've made your guess.

i'm going to say the first and third covers you designed. The second one is the actual cover. Kind of like the ginkgo one, the actual one is kind of plain...
