Contest Brief

Hello. I'm writing a book called "Florida Sinkholes" and need a cover.

The story is about a small town in Florida on the weekend. Sinkholes are opening up and swallowing people alive. On the edge of town is a wild high school party, and the loud music is drawing the sinkholes. While the students try to get drunk, stoned and laid, the police are rushing across town hoping to stop it.

It's a funny and pretty stupid story, so I'm looking for a stupid and funny cover.

Title: Florida Sinkholes
Author: Greg Strandberg

The final cover needs to be 1563x2500 for Amazon. Here's the story on my website if you're interested. Thanks!

I was really hoping you could work with me and give me a couple drafts, vishnureme, but it looks like you don't want to do that. Pity.

Can you try making the "Florida" an orange color, like the fruit? Can you try to get the "s" from the end of "sinkholes" onto the page fully? Right now it's going off.

I can't read the "sinkholes" very well, and the author name is difficult to read as well.

I guess if #7 is all you can do then I'll probably take that one.

  Mainly I can't tell anything else though. At least #7 has the state of Florida outline.
