Holy crap! My book made it into the SPFBO7 cover contest! 
I might be slightly excited over this. I made the cover myself and have had no small amount of imposter syndrome over it. Authors are cautioned against making their own covers, not due to a lack of photoshop skills, though there is that, but because most don’t do enough research and the end product looks very sloppy and DIY. I have limited PS skills, so I did my best to mimic an established and proven style that was clean and simplistic (though I later found this is more for print books). This first book is made with stock art, but I commissioned the illustrator to make custom work for the following two books.
I don’t anticipate winning the contest, but just the fact that I got picked is extremely gratifying.
