Drafting Ideas

Here are my drafting ideas. I took inspiration from my scamps and created four drafts for my front cover. 

I like the first draft as it is eye catching and appeals to a teenage/young adult audience. The use of an iPhone template creates an interesting layout that links to when Hazel and Augustus text each other in the book.

The champagne glass cover is simple and poetic. The stars in the champagne link to a quote in the book, "Do you know what Dom Périgon said after inventing champagne? He called out to his fellow monks, 'Come quickly: I am tasting the stars!'"

The swing set cover is pleasant to look at because it is symmetrical. It links to when Augustus and Hazel are sat on the 'Old Swing Set of Tears.'

The cigarette cover has the title written out on cigarettes. I like this idea as it's unusual but links to the metaphor of cigarettes in the book, "It's a metaphor, see: you put the killing thing right between your teeth, but you don't give it the power to do it's killing."
