Just another damn group blog!
Who can we make fun of???
A while back I googled myself (sue me, you know you do it too!) and discovered this gem: The Bodice Rippeth wherein the lovely Elena pokes gentle fun at book covers. Including mine! Now before you you get your asses in a tizzy, go take a look. I’ll wait.
*watching the clock*
Did you read the disclaimer at the top of the page? Good, then you know Elena is a romance reader. Now…tell me you didn’t laugh? I know you did cuz I did too. Funniest thing EVER. So funny when I googled myself this morning (Sue me, you know you do it too!) I had to take a second look, then had to look through some more, then had to subscribe to Elena’s RSS feed so I didn’t miss any future editions of The Bodice Rippeth because I think it’s so full of WIN!
Be sure and check out the Christmas Edition while you’re at it. The old fashioned cartoons are as funny as Elena’s comments…
Ok now it’s your turn. Go on. Make fun of one of your own covers. I dare you.

*Disclaimer: I have a horrible allergy headache so that caption isn’t near as funny as i’d hoped for.

It’s kinda weird…but I don’t think any of my covers would qualify…
(going to look back…)

The wrinkled wife beater is such a romantic touch, don’t you think?

sadly, I am looking at those covers and saying, “got it, got it, want it, got it, want it…”

Since in my utterly ignorant state I haven’t a clue how to upload a picture, I can only point you to my book Mesmerized, on my site. http://www.scribble-scribble.com/books/mes_excerpt.htm
All I can say is the guy they picked has to be the buttiest ugliest cover model I’ve ever seen in my life. I hope they didn’t pay him. Even the girl looks like she can’t wait to get off his lap. To quote a dear friend, he looks like a black Bart Simpson.

Simona! LOL He reminds of that basketball player. You know the one….kidding but he really does –used to play for the Timberwolves (I’m HORRIBLE at names!!!) … right on the tip of my tongue. I THINK he’s in Cali now (but not the Lakers)….and actually I think the guy on your cover is kind of cute but the cover itself (keeping with the them of my blog post) says “NEITHER OF US ARE BEING PAID ENOUGH FOR THIS.”
LOL (sorry)
