I'm in the midst of a group project (we just entered crunch time) so I'm a little behind on getting this feature out. As many of you guys have heard, Elandria's term as the stock and resources cv has ended. Lanny deserves all the love and best wishes since she is one of the cornerstones of the stock community, dispensing good advice, sharing awesome stock, and selecting lovely dd's.

First off, one of the ways you can show the love is by entering her contest!

Eleven.. Cover Contest! CLOSED!
So, for as long as I can remember I've had access to the most incredible range of books, from novels, tall tales and everything in between; all of those I've read (and I'm sure you all agree) it's most frequently their covers you immediately think of when you hear their titles. It goes without saying that a picture tells a thousands words, and cover art, for that specific reason has to grab the reader by the eyeballs and hold their attention right through to the very last page in a yummy, captivating smorgasbord of plot teasers, incredible characters and dreamy (or dystopian) landscapes. Essentially, book cover p0rn

Visiting bookshops used to be as much about the cover art as it was about the text on the pages, which is why these days seeing the dozens of dreary, completely plain covers which do absolutely NOTHING to sell the book leaves me a little cold. Further I just can't understand why publishers are going in this direction.

Here's a few of my favorites from Lanny's gallery. If I could I'd put her entire gallery into this feature. Her stock is high quality and is one of the first things I pull up when I try to explain stock to people off the webs.
