Contest Brief

I have a novel on Amazon.com, I would like to make a tangible novel now. I need a cover that is 6x9 and will upload on to create-a-space and a replacement picture for my e-book. $25 is the prize.

My novel is called "The Initial Stage of Murder"

Where do you start looking for a serial killer who's choosing victims by the first letter of their first names? Now what would you do if all of those letters spell out you first, middle and last name?

A serial killer stalking people at the local pub scene in London England. The weapon of choice? Hypodermic needles filled with oleander, berries from the nightshade plant and water from the lily of the valley.

The killer is very creepy, I would like the cover to represent that. I tried but, it was mistaken as a medical crime novel. Damn it all. So, I was thinking of a cover that is very mysterious and dark, but with maybe a splash of color, a little creepy but not full fledge horror. Maybe involving a hypodermic needle and/or the three plants mentioned above. On the other hand 1 of you may come up with a concept that includes nothing of the above and blows me away so don't be shy and submit what your creative minds come up with.

For more inspiration feel free to check out the larger description for the book on amazon.com.

Thank you all for your entries
