This week I launched a contest on 99designs.com in order to get my book cover made.
99designs is a site where you post a brief for any type of graphic artwork you would like designed and scores of designers submit their ideas for you to see. You can make comments and suggestions of what you’d like changed on each design, and by the end of the week’s deadline you get to pick a winner if you like the work that has been submitted. It’s a really exciting process and I’m extremely grateful to all the artists that submitted work for my book!
Today is the deadline for all submissions and in the next couple of days I will be able to work with the finalists to perfect the design that I like best!
Bathory’s Secret is Romina Nicolaides’s first novel in the Affliction series of books, a reexamination of the Vampire genre married with History, in a multitude of real and imaginary settings bringing to life a visceral realm unlike any other. The series offers a more existential approach to the field coupled with sensational plot twists, fascinating characters and beautiful settings.
Romina was born and raised in Cyprus by her bookworm and History enthusiast father who fascinated her with countless stories from ancient Greek mythology to its medieval patchwork of Byzantine, Venetian French and English Kings and Queens flooding her imagination with people and events from all time periods. Coupled with her fascination with the mystical and the occult she began writing stories leading to her first novel in 2013.
She lives in the United Kingdom where she continues to be inspired.

Hope 99 designs works for you, I know there are some really talented designers on there.
I was really amazed by the wealth of talent on there and the receptivity of all the artists to my suggestions in order to come up with something I liked. I had real trouble deciding the winner because some of the designs were so good!
I’ve actually picked a winner and even though it’s been a couple of weeks she’s still trying to perfect it for me, so I can honestly say it was a really pleasant experience. I will be posting the winning design soon so stay tuned!
