Coming soon.

Basically, i'm gonna be needing a cover for this book. I put a request in the photoshop section but it never got recognised, so maybe we can run a lil competition here n see who can do me the best cover.

Whoever wins, i decide judging by the quality of the book cover. The winner gets props from everybody who posts in the thread, how about that.

I hope everyone who read my book will read my second too.

P.S

Here is the intro for the book:

Intro:
For those who have read my first book, they will know about me. Not everything about me, but they will have an idea of how i’ve been living for the past 18 years. Now it’s time to delve deeper, much deeper into the mind and times of a young white boy trying to make a living in what is basically a black mans world.

It's going to be alot longer, so dont expect it any time soon, but it's coming...

sounds good I wont participate in the cover contest though.. Good luck!

rpr1 · 01-06-2008, 11:25 AM

yeah, looking forward to reading it!

your first one was a good read

thanks guys, yep i just figure it's a good way of getting some friendly competition and again, bringing something fresh to RGF. People are complaining lately that people are posting their 1k,2k, 3k threads, so i'll write another book , people design a cover, hey presto we got something fresh

looking forward to it

I wish I didn't suck so bad at Photoshop cause I'd totally like to help out

Good luck though with your cover art.

If I was good at Photoshop I think I would make something that looked like a bunch of magazine cutouts in a collage form, like random shit, and the title looking the same way except on white pieces of paper with black letterings, kind of like a ransom note. The author name though would be in a regular bold kind of black text.

sounds pretty cool Spleen , maybe if someone could do something like that, it'd be cool.

7 pages wrote so far folks

there's no rush for this one, it will probably take a month before i've written this up. I'll tell you now, it's got some pretty deep stuff in there that i didn't wanna share first time round but this time, i'm going for it.

In$anity · 01-06-2008, 04:55 PM

^^^

it can be your interpretation of what you think i mean, but as some pointers, my book is gonna have that urban feel to it for my readers, not gangsta killings or anything, just urban that ghetto kids can relate to it

Pathogenik · 01-06-2008, 04:57 PM
