Actually I design book covers. Which sounds cool, but is most of the time very boring ;) Last cover I was hired to do was the biography of the latest reality show celebrity. How exciting, you wouldn't believe ;)
Okay, well, it sounds like a really cool job to *me*. And I'm very pleased to know you do get paid for your talents! Except, do you actually have to *read* books like that? Ugh.
Hee--when I sell my NaNo novel for zillions of dollars will you design my cover? ;-)
For that one, I basically just had to dig through photos... fortunately! Of course, novels and essays I read. I've been lucky so far, only a very low percentage of bad books :)
I will beg you to allow me to design your cover :)
