Contest Brief

I'm putting out a new Tarot card book. The book is called "Ten Minute Tarot." The book tells people how to do dozens of different Tarot card readings in just 10 minutes.

I'd really appreciate it if people could submit a cover with "Ten Minute Tarot" and another with "10 Minute Tarot" so I can see which looks better.

I have another Tarot card book and it's here:
http://www.amazon.com/Tarot-The-Mystery-Mystique-ebook/dp/B00CMUFOUW/

This is what the bestselling Tarot card books look like:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books/12659/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_b_1_5_last

I don't really have a design idea for this. In the past I've just gotten Tarot card images from Wikipedia, and you can use those if you like.

From the feedback I got back it's best to go without the bar at the top. I'd also like to get the image moved up so it's more in the center and not crowding down to the author name.

It'd be best to show the empress or high priestess card as the very front card, as women will probably buy this book more than men. Other cards are the queen cards.

I've put out polls on different kindle forums and most everyone agreed that #148 looked the best. Lots of people really liked #135 and #162 , but not as many. I'd say 80% of people preferred #148 , and even said they'd be likely to buy it with that cover, so that's where I'm heading now.

These are all really amazing covers and I wish I had more books to put them all on!

I'd appreciate if the remaining entrants could put up a banner at the top of the book that says "All 78 Cards Explained! More Than 50 Spreads Revealed! Right now #148 is the closest to what I'm going for.

take a look at my other book to get an idea. I want people to know what they're getting right when they buy the book.

Right now I'm leaning toward #18 with a different font; I like #126 but it's a little too dark I think; #123 looks pretty good; #119 is good with the cards, just not the title or the font; and #107 is good, but I'm using R-W-S deck examples in my book.

There are 2 days left on the contest. So far there have been more than 100 entries. Thanks everyone!

I've narrowed it down to the 10 entries I liked, but more importantly, the 10 entries I think will help sell my book. I'll probably finish up this contest tomorrow and choose a winner.

Try to be creative; covers don't have to look like everything else selling on Amazon.

The final product will have to be 2 sizes:

Smashwords: 1600x2400
Amazon: 1562x2500

I think that "Ten Minute Tarot" looks better on the covers, so there's not need to do 2 samples anymore, thanks!

Right now I'm just kind of seeing the same boring old covers I'm used to on Amazon. There's got to be another way to make Tarot creative, different, and eye-catching.

  Seal the contest. Chances are you'll get better entries. And furthermore, I personally think that $40 is minimal for the effort required. All the best none the less :)!
