Something to do with the interior story.

The color white. You rarely get that these days.

Anything John James or whatever his name is.

Something not too busy. I need to focus and be grabbed by the overall image right away.

Hot chicks.

Something that seemly breaks the fourth wall.

Good luck!

A known artist.

Even indies usually shell out a couple extra bucks to get a well-known artist on the cover.

Yea, and you can never go wrong with a hot chick.

Absolutely.

And a hot chick breaking the fourth wall is even better.
