Inktober 2016 - Book Covers

Last year I discovered the Inktober challenge. 

For every day in October participants must...
  1. Make a drawing in ink (you can do a pencil under-drawing if you want).
  2. Post it on your blog (or tumblr, instagram, twitter, facebook, flickr, Pinterest or just pin it on your wall.)
  3. Hashtag it with #inktober and #inktober2016
  4. Repeat
This year's theme came from James, the head of the book club I'm a member of. He suggested book covers of books the club has read. I liked it. I asked him in September to write up a list of 31 books of his choosing for me to do. Not all of them were read by the club (and I have only read one-third of them), but that didn't matter.

Here is the list (including notes and typos).

And here are the covers I have made for Inktober 2016








This one was drawn while I was in Rai Con, so I had a lot of inspiration for this one.







I made a huge mistake in this one. The calendar is supposed to be July, not May (I may have been thinking about my birthday when the mistake was made.)
