Pinching Lobsters

The finished cover.

Here's the photo I used to design the cover of Pinching Lobsters. I made a cardboard lobster and then took a photo of my friend's shadow. I was looking to create some mystery since my protagonist is wanted by the law for stealing lobsters. I then added a lot of layers of water to give it an aquatic feel.

Hey there, As you may know, I recently self-published my first novel, Pinching Lobsters. Now, I'm looking to hire a publicity firm to help me with a one-month, nation-wide promotional blitz. To make this happen, I've launched a funding campaign on Kickstarter. Please, follow the link if you'd like all the details, if you're willing to make a pledge, or if you just want to share this via Facebook or Twitter. Any of the above will go a long way towards getting the word out. Many thanks, Dax
