I technically released En Viscus Veritas years ago but we never gave it the full treatment with a cover and audio book. I recorded the audiobook a couple months ago and then we realized it had never been given a cover.

So now I'm working on it, and trying to pick a stock image. The story is on the sad side, about two lovers who *almost* start a relationship and fuck it up in the end, so I wanted black and white, images of people clearly having sex but not quite connecting. Shutterstock has a nifty feature that lets you crop the photos to what you need and put a filter on them, so I was able to get a better idea of what the covers could look like. Then I put them together to see which one I like best.

The first one is maybe too model-pretty. The one on the upper far right is too abstract. I'm not crazy about the lower far right one as well. The rest I'm not sure about. I'll try putting text on them and see what works. 

Let me know if you have a particular fondness for any of these images.

Actually need to reread my copy of En Viscus Veritas for a fully informed response, but knee-jerk response-wise none of the 10 are the right fit. The one I prefer of the 10 is actually the one you find too abstract, probably because all of the images seem to show too much connecting to best represent what I remember of En Viscus Veritas. At least the abstract image allows room for interpretation.

Generally agree with Sean. I like bottom far left. But I haven't read the story, so what do I know?

Eh. You can't judge it by the cover anyway, so what's it matter?
