Mari Carr » Spotlight 4 – Val Tibbs winner

This week’s winner is Mia. Valerie will be contacting you about your prize.

This week’s spotlight shines on someone who really brings something different to the International Heat gang. She isn’t a writer, but she is an incredibly talented cover artist who seems to be taking the ebook publishing world by storm. She is currently the Head Cover Artist at Freya’s Bower/Wild Child Publishing, but she’s also designed covers for Zumaya, Aspen Mountain, Awe-Struck, Amira, Pink Petal, Sugar & Spice, and eXcessica.

You can spot her work at her website: www.vtibbs.wordpress.com. You can also catch up with her on her blog at www.vtibbs.blogspot.com.

And in Val’s case, I think a picture is worth a thousand words and I wanted to share some of the amazing things she’s made for me…

She created the cover to my website free read–have to admit this is still one of my favorite covers!

Just for fun, she created a cover for the book I am currently co-writing with Jambrea Jo Jones. If we sell the book, I’d love for them to use that cover!

She created two different bookmarks for me to take to the Lori Foster Get Together. I’ve got loads more. If anybody wants one, send me an email with your address and I’ll slip a few in the mail to you!

And best of all, BANNERS! If you’ve been thinking about creating a banner for your website, blog, or signature line, Valerie is the best and she is very reasonably priced! Plus, if you aren’t technologically saavy (I’m including myself in this group), she will walk you step by step on how to upload the images to your computer.

Oh, did I forget to tell you? That’s right. The winner of this week’s contest will have the opportunity to consult with Val as she creates you your very own web or signature banner. How cool is that!
