New Cover Contest: We Have a Winner!

January 16, 2016/ Benjamin Gorman

Back in August, I announced that Not a Pipe Publishing would be holding a contest to seek a new cover for my novel Corporate High School. Three finalists were selected, and in January, the voting opened. It closed at midnight tonight. I'm pleased to announce we have a winner! The beautiful submissions by Brittney Nikkole Bettles and Sannel Larson both had strong showings and garnered very close vote totals, but the winner by a healthy margin was...

Anna Martin with this submission:

Congratulations to Anna. Thanks to Sannel, Brittney, and all the other people who submitted. I'd also like to thank the people who gave additional feedback about the cover. I'll be taking those suggestions into account as I work with Anna to finalize the design and get the new cover ready over the next month. Thank you all so much for your support with this project!

Vote for the New Cover of Corporate High School

January 01, 2016/ Benjamin Gorman

As described here previously, Not a Pipe Publishing has been holding a contest for the cover art of the forthcoming second edition of Corporate High School. We've been accepting submissions since August and have even extended the deadline (accidentally), so the period of public voting will begin on New Year's Day and continue until midnight on Friday, January 15th. You may vote once a day for only one of the cover designs (as there can be only one winner), but please feel free to chime in in the comments section below if you have ideas about how the different artists' work might be mixed or modified in some way. Before the votes are even cast, I want to thank all the folks who submitted. Here are the finalists:
