I have republishing a book on ethics. I would like a cover similar to the original with the same classy feel. Included is a copy of the original hardcover showing the front and spine. The back will be different so I didn't include it.

The winning submission is to be provied in photoshop format with all the layers/fonts etc on the provided template ensuring that all text is withing the appropriate bleed lines.

Text for the cover and spine should be the same as in the picture that is included. My logo (attached) should also be added to the bottom of the spine.

The back should feature the barcode at the bottom right or left (up to you, it's included in the template) as well as the following text -
"An inescapable truth lies at the heart of this simple yet profound book: The quality of our lives is not determined by the happenstance of genetics or by the influence of environment; it is not measured in material possessions or in the trappings of youth; it is not dependent on personality or social acclaim. On the contrary, the intrinsic value of the lives we lead reflects the strength of a single trait: our personal character. Character ls Destiny, a sort of self-help guide for the soul, shows how we can lead richer lives simply by being better people.
Russell W. Gough, a nationally prominent writer and speaker, describes the steps to personal growth—from examining our lives to taking responsibility for our actions, from discarding selfishness to embracing the greater good, from becoming a better role model for our loved ones to finding the courage to do the right thing naturally and consistently. By cultivating the habits of virtue, we will strengthen not only ourselves but, more important, our families and our world. This book shows how to overcome the most formidable obstacle to an ethical life: ourselves.
Each and every day we are faced with scores of choices that, in subtle yet discernible ways, can either enrich or impoverish our personal character. The choices we make, and the manner in which we make them, illuminate the paths our lives will take. Character is Destiny can be our compass.

RUSSELL W. GOUGH is a professor of ethics and philosophy at Pepperdine University. He had lectured across the country and was a chairman for the annual White House Conference on Character Building. His articles on ethics and character have appeared in the Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and elsewhere. In addition, he is the author of the book
Character ls Everything: Promoting Ethical Excellence in Sports. "

If you can fit in one (or both) of these quotes that would be wonderful, but if it's looking too cluttered leave them off.

"Reading Character ls Destiny is like listening to a trusted friend giving you heartfelt, character-building advice. Its wise, passionate, and down-to-earth message will not only show you how and why but will make you want to improve the ethical quality of your everyday life. Take its message to heart and you will undoubtedly grow as a person of character." -JACK CANFIELD, coauthor of Chicken Soup for the Soul series

"Russ Gough has accomplished something very rare: A college philosopher has written a book in real English for real people on the most important subject of all--character. I congratulate him. This is the proverbial required reading book for high school and college students, and their parents; in other words, for everyone." -DENNIS PRAGER, radio talk-show host and author of Think a Second Time

Thank you all so much. There are some wonderful entries here.

I'll start workign out which I like then talking to some readers and the rights holder to see what they like best. I'll try not to ask for any tweaks unless you're the winner, however if it's down to a couple of you and we can't choose I might see if we can get the small changes done and see if that helps clarify things.

There are some really great covers, but at the moment the backs are where you can really shine.

The back is actually 3 parts.
1/ The blurb.
2/ Author bio.
3/ The quotes.

They don't need to be in the order I have the text. Stick a quote at the top if you like, use only 1 quote. Highlight the author bio. Try doing things to break up the large amount of text and make it look less like a big block of text. And please don't use BLURB: and QUOTE:. They're for you to know what the different sections are!
