I like the old-fashioned aura of the Ink Well cover, but I had to copy the picture into a Word file and then magnify the size to 500% to read the first two lines. (I have older eyes, and the text is hard to read against the dark background.)

Good luck with your work.

At 3:21pm on September 29, 2008, Gina-Marie Cheeseman said…: Sure! It immediately caught my attention, and I thought, "What is that about...it seems very interesting!"

At 12:09pm on September 29, 2008, James Raia said…: Yes, I understand. I edit a monthly newsletter for a client. She's a fitness expert with several advance degrees. But she simply can't write. It's hard to tell someone who's a friend and who pays regularly that they're newsletter is awful.

At 12:00pm on September 29, 2008, James Raia said…: Geez, don't get all defensive. Tell your client. They'll thank you in the long run. You asked for comments. If you just want praise, say so.
Cheers, James Raia

Like the cover illustration. Gives an immediate who, where, what, maybe even a when, and generates enough interest to make readers want to know the why. Love your name too. Be well.

At 9:10am on September 29, 2008, Chris Scott said…: The Rat Pack design looks too busy, too crowded. (I assume that this is a political thriller.) There're are too many figures and too much text, and the text and the figures don't correlate. For example, what does "brothers" mean in the context? Or "one running"? -- none of the figures is running. The backdrop is fine. Cheers, Chris.

At 8:50am on September 29, 2008, James Raia said…: No disrespect . . I can't draw a stickman. But to me, the cover is too crowded, and you may also have copyright issues via the original "Rat Pack." Just my opinion and hunch.

I checked out your site. Beautiful work. I'm not in need of anything at the moment. But you never know what the future holds.
