What I'd like to do is have some self published authors (or their readers) send me their book covers. First 10 covers get put into the poll.
Then I will do a blog which will allow readers to vote on which cover they think is best. Each person who comments will get their name put in for a draw.
The prize to the commenter who gets their name drawn is all ten authors will give them a copy of their e-book. That's 10 books people!
The winning cover art will be promoted on all the other authors blogs for a day. Yes, you can get your friends to vote for you, in fact, it's encouraged.
This is a way for us indie authors to support one another while still promoting our own, and each others work. And I think it has potential to be a lot of fun.
So this is it. Indie authors, send me an email at motionsrider@yahoo.ca with a jpg. of your cover. First 10 authors who get me their covers are in. :)
As soon as I have enough covers, I will contact all participating authors and we'll put this poll up.
Now, GO!
**Because of the tremendous response to this, I will now be doing a MONTHLY cover art poll with the same parameters as in this post. So if you'd like to be a part of a future poll, send me your cover**

As of right this minute, there is still room in the poll if you want to be a part of it!
If I get enough of a response, I might open up more slots. :)

What a fantastic idea.
I sent mine in, but didn't hear about it until close to 5 pm. (Pacific Time)
I'll be happy to host the winning cover on both my blogs though.
I think you have 10 already... but just in case, I sent you my cover. What a fun contest!!
There's been such a great response, I'm going to make this a monthly event!!!
So keep sending me your covers, I'll put you in the que and let you know which month your book will be highlighted in the Cover Art Poll. :)
I wanna play... I wanna play! Great idea!
Can readers sent custom art?
Anon~ Readers can send in suggestions for their favorite author if the author agrees to give away a copy of their e-book as a prize and 1 or both of you is willing to host a blog post for the winner of that month's cover art contest. :D
