I had a hunch that to coordinate the following group venture that time zones would need to taken into account. And oops, I have only just read the email reply to my query about when I should post up this posting. So, whatever time zone you're in, here goes and have fun......
Lexa’s Cover Reveal Challenge
Can you find the error on this cover?
To win a prize, find the cover error in each of these 10 blogs:
klahanie - klahanie
And away we go. A posting puzzle pleasantly perusing possibilities.....
Did you notice I'm here first? Do I get a lollypop? And how come your cover for Lexa's book is so much better than the one I have on my blog?
ReplyDeleteLee, your reply comment from me ended up below Alex's and RPD's reply from me. What the heck, eh.
DeleteGary
I caught that one!!
ReplyDeleteAlex is second. And Lee's comment is now down below. It's going to be a weird evening, methinks. Yes, evening. Time zones.
DeleteAnd did you notice I'm here 2nd unless when I press publish, someone else gets in before me. It has happened as I take to long to type. Anyway, it would take me all week to find out what the error is on each site. I never win prizes, so have a great weekend mate, we're battening down the hatches for the big storm that's about to break on Sunday with heavy rain, high winds of 90 miles per hour. Isn't England exciting right now :(
ReplyDeleteI knew it would happen. Alex J Cavanaugh got there before me. Hope Lexa's book does well too.
DeleteHI Rum-Punch Drunk,
DeleteYou ended up in third. That's the thing with thinking you are second when you might be third. And poor Lee's comment, which of course was first, ends up with a reply comment from me below you.
I'm ready for the storm. Batten down the British Blogs. Have fun, my friend.
Gary
Hey Lee,
ReplyDeleteI posted up but a few seconds ago. I actually sent an email about time zones. Figured it should be a coordinated thing. And so who ends up posting up last. Yep and doh! You get two lollipops. I must go see your cover. Yay to being first. And yay to them fixing this comment format. Or have I spoke too soon...
Gary
I should read the rules to this contest and then post.... I found it!
ReplyDeleteHi Robin,
DeleteThere you go. I might just go read the rules myself. Have fun and a good weekend to you.
Gary
Couldn't find nothing on Alex's one but glasses are obvious on this one. She trying to tell you something? You look but don't see? lol
ReplyDeleteAh million man Pat in the Hatt,
DeleteMaybe we should all get some glasses, pass wind to the masses and all toot in common.
I caught this one, too... but I agree with everyone - what a fun way to do a cover reveal :)
ReplyDeletePS... good luck to the Brit Blogs.... I shall be thinking of you all when I open up my cocktail umbrellas :)
PPS..... Mahalo, Gazza, for the kinds comments the other day. You are truly a man amongst dog owners whose dogs are called "Penny." :)
Mazza!
DeleteI heard you caught something :)
British Blogs Battening Hatches. You know what you can do with your cocktail umbrellas...
Always a delight to comment on your site. It's done with dogged determination.
Peace, dude.
Gary
We were plotting to shoot spitwads your way, but you posted before we could gather our straws.
ReplyDeleteI found them all! Woohoo! :D
Hey Melissa,
DeleteI did sense a bit of spit. I also made mention of it being coordinated based on one time zone. By the time I got home to find out, I ended up being last to post. Hit me with a wet noodle. That will do me.
Glad you found them all.
Gary :)
Time has a way of taking up time.
ReplyDeleteUnless you're clueless like me.
Ah DAVID,
DeleteTime flies. Yes, those are the flies wearing watches.
Gary :)
Okay, that one was pretty easy to get, as is the one on my site. In fact, I'm pretty sure they go together. All they're missing is a cigar. :P
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE the photo at the top. :)))
Hi L.G.,
DeleteSmokin'! Have a cigar :)
Glad you like the top photo.
Gary :)
The glasses were a nice touch.
ReplyDeleteHi Delores,
DeleteQuite the spectacle.
Gary :)
Well, this was an easy one, for a change, hahaha.
ReplyDeleteGary, greetings to you and to Penny. I came to invite you both to drop by the Dragon Cave and take notice of the great event where you and Penny are among my guests of Honor. I am counting on your presence. I leave you dragon hugs! :)
Hi Al,
DeleteEye, eye, it sure was! ;)
Penny and I were most honoured by the invite. Thank you, kind dragon :)
Gary
I've looked and looked but no can see the mistake.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Hi Yvonne,
DeleteSome of them were a bit tricky. I think the one on this site was right on the nose :)
Gary :)
This one made me laugh! Love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Kate,
DeleteIt was funny and we had a Pharaoh time.
Gary :)
She's so clever. I'm not sure about the error. Why is everyone finding it so quickly?
ReplyDeleteI'll hop around the other blogs.
Good day, dear Gary.
xoRobyn
Hi Robyn,
DeleteYes, Lexa is one clever lady. Which reminds me, Lexa, where are you? I don't know what the errors are. Hey, keep hopping back to this blog. Gosh, desperate for hits or what, eh :)
Good whatever time zone to you, dear Robyn.
Gary :) x
Great idea for a cover reveal, spotted this one! Hope your weekend is a good one, Gary.
ReplyDeleteHi Suzanne,
DeleteA very clever idea, indeed. I was going to put some spots on this one. I think I had a good weekend. Thank you for asking and I hope you had a dancing good time. As for that lady comedian....
Gary :)
Such fun for a cover reveal, but I am curious about this first, second, and third commenter is there a prize involved? LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful, wonderful weekend! All, but especially you Gary!
Oh, and don't forget to ask Andrew about the goats!
Hi Yolanda,
DeleteYou win a prize for having the awesome pleasure of knowing me :)
I hope All had a wonderful weekend. I hope you had a wonderful weekend, Yolanda. You superstar, you.
The goats? Ah yes and how is Billie?
Gary :)
You wouldn't hit a sarcophagus with glasses, would you? You can always schedule posts in Blogger. I usually schedule mine around 9am Eastern Standard Time, not that anyone bothers to reply until noonish.
ReplyDeleteHi Pat,
DeleteYep, it really Sphinx. I would schedule a blog if I had known what time the blog was scheduled for. I think everything should be just related to my time zone. Yes, I own Greenwich Mean Time.
Gary :)
This is only the second error I've been able to find today. Must. Keep. Looking.
ReplyDeleteHi M.J.,
DeleteI think the biggest error is my blog site. Happy looking :)
Gary
I have held back the spitwads in favor of showering you with punch, Gary. Yes, that special punch...
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Lexa!
Hi River Fairchild,
DeletePerhaps I had a sneaky plan and deliberately didn't post up sooner. Maybe I've become a self-obsessed blogger desperate for hits as in visits on my site. Here's a nice Hawaiian Punch! :)
Yay to Lexa. Lexa, where are you?
Gary :)
I can't find an error but maybe the book is supposed to be about a cobbler who made very bad mistakes in the shoe factory and he turned out to be a sole-cutter? Therefore the mistake is the typo in the title? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Eve,
DeleteSounds like a load of old cobblers. Time to heel, perhaps. A typo in the title. Why not.
Gary :)
I don't have a clue about what you're doing, or -- more importantly -- why. I can't think of a more useless way to spend an afternoon than than skipping about from blog to blog looking for errors, planted or otherwise, on book covers.
ReplyDeleteThat having been said, you da man, Gary.
Ah Mr. rhymeswithplague,
DeleteI have no idea what I'm doing. I guess it's me being altruistic. Go on, spend a useless afternoon hopping from one tedious blog to another. You know you want to. After all, you visited this tedious blog :)
Having said that, you da man, Mr. rhymeswithplague.
Gary :)
Woo Hoo. Congratulations Lexa - not least on having such wonderful friends.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
DeleteWoo hoo back to you, Sue. Congratulations to Lexa for having such wonderful friends. Lexa, where are you? Help me!
Gary :)
This one I caught. I think I like the error Lexa chose for you the best, Gary. What a creative cover reveal.
ReplyDeleteHi Julie,
DeleteThis one was easy. Of course, Lexa would save the best for me :) A very interesting reveal. And so is the cover reveal.
Gary :)
This is so much fun! Congratulations to Lexa. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Christine,
DeleteAh what fun we had. Who is Lexa? :)
Gary :)
The dude is wearing glasses!!! I got it, right?
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth,
DeleteThis dude is wearing sunglasses. You know me, being a celebrity, I have to wear sunglasses :)
Gary :)
Spotted this one right away... Love the cover, Lexa.
ReplyDeleteHi T.F.,
DeleteIt was easily spotted. I'm sure Lexa is pleased you love the cover.
Gary :)
I'm terrible at these games, because I'm a lazy sloth, but still so happy I came to visit. It's been awhile, you see. All caught up in my own blog life. But now I remembered that I love your blog. So I'll be back. Oh yes I will.
ReplyDeleteHi Donna,
DeleteOops and yes, it's been awhile for the both of us. Oh how I miss the farm animals. Did that sound right? I will visit you and lovely to see you again, Donna.
Gary :)
Doesn't it kinda seem like cover reveals are similar to blogfests? I don't know. I'm just thinking and I know thinking can get me in trouble. That's why I don't think much.
ReplyDeleteOh, and best wishes to Lexa!
Lee
Check out my interview with viral blogger Liza Long
Tossing It Out
Hi Lee,
DeleteCover reveals are sneaky versions of blogfests. I think we should have the A to Z of cover reveals. You can use that one. Go on. think away.
Good for Lexa :)
I visited, I commented and yes, maybe sometime, I should have the privilege of guesting on your site. Thank you, Lee.
Gary
A to Z of cover reveals? I like it. Damyanti and maybe others did something somewhat similar last year, but not cover reveals.
DeleteMy guest post offer stands!
Lee
Hi Lee,
DeleteI thought you might like that! Damyanti likes the A to Z of just about everything.
I shall contact you regarding a guest post, Lee. Thank you for that.
Gary
Hi Gary; hope you have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI found the error; this is really an exciting game. Your header makes me want to go put a puzzle together instead though :)
.......dhole
Hi Donna Hole,
DeleteThank you and I think I had a great weekend. Hope yours was great.
The error was right on the nose in this neato game. You should make that puzzle, Donna :)
Gary
I trip over my own feet almost every single day because I am not paying attention so there is no way that I will find errors. I do see it on your picture though!
ReplyDeleteHi Birdie,
DeleteOuch, I just tripped over my feet....There was an error in my picture? Okay! :)
Gary
Yey! Timezone issues made me visit this blog way too much yesterday, looking fo this post. But I enjoyed a little read while I was here :D
ReplyDeleteShah X
Hi Shah,
DeleteIt worked! Holding back the posting got you to visit my obscure site more times than needed. Glad you enjoyed your little read on here :)
Gary x
No, I can't find the error, Gary. But it doesn't matter to me if there's an error on the cover because I don't judge books by their cover. What about you?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment you left on my blog and for taking the time to read and reread my story.
It means a lot to me.
Have a peaceful weekend with your lovely family.
Hugs.
Hi Julia,
DeleteI like your style. I try not to pass judgement on any cover or anything.
My profound honour to read you words of such powerful articulation, my friend.
My weekend was peaceful, thank you. I do hope that your weekend was a calm, reflective one.
Hugs to you,
Gary
I found the error. I'm once again looking puzzled at everything else mind you. I just can't get the hang of all the blog challenges, but it's nice to see so many folks having fun for sure :)
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle,
DeleteAh yes, the error. I put on my specs and there it was. I can't be arsed with those blog challenges. Which is kinda' of ironic, considering I sort of help those who do this type of stuff.
Be well, Michelle.
Gary :)
Haha, so far this one and the one with the stache are my two favorite ones. (;
ReplyDeleteHi Elise,
DeleteI like the one with the cartoon chipmunk in the background of the cover....
Gary :)
Ooooo... how very hipster of the Egypt guy... niiiiiice... :)
ReplyDeleteGary, you're downright awesome. You sure do know how to make people laugh and find joy in life. Seriously such a rare and awesome quality. And I've missed your posts! I've been slacking. But not because I need clones like you--just because. :) Hope you are FABULOUS.
Hi Morgan,
DeleteEgypt type dude is quite the spectacle.
You are incredibly nice to me, Morgan. I know it's good to try and bring a bit of comfort into each of our lives. Don't worry about missing my posts. I'm sure you haven't missed much :) I'm fantastically wonderful, thank you. And guess what, so are you! :)
Gary :)
You and your puns!!!!!! (Looking at the ones below me too)
DeleteSo entertaining. I don't have your kind of witty wit. Tragic. I'll have to live vicariously through you!
And you're a wonderful person, Gary. It's a privilege to know you. :)
Hi Morgan,
DeleteMy ridiculous human is crashed out. Which mean, I shall reply to your extra comments. Have fun, have coffee and watch the zaniness.
My human says it's a privilege to know such an amazing lady as you. It's all pawsitive :)
Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar! :)
:D !!!
DeleteThat's the difference between real life hero and comic book ones. you made this easy, Gary. Morgan's right, you're downright awesome.
ReplyDeleteHi Joylene,
DeleteI'm a real-life comic book hero. I Marvel at you comment, Joylene. And you, just like Morgan are totally awesome. Thank you for your kind words.
Gary :)
Not sure about errors, but I have noticed that the sand dune is from Scotland. and Michael Cane has a hairier chest.
ReplyDeleteAnd I note the cunning plan, I love cunning plans . . . . I had a cunning plan once but it was a long time ago.
Hi Rob,
DeletePrepare to me thy dune and then take it back to Scotland. Michael Caine had the pleasure of meeting me in The World's End pub in Chelsea. Not a lot of people know that.
I have performed a cunning stunt......
Gary :)
This one was silly! ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Leandra,
DeleteYes it was. Then again, I'm silly :)
Gary
Hey, Gary. Hope you are well.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you, Lexa.
Hugs and chocolate to you both.
Hi Shelly,
DeleteI'm marvellous, thank you. Hope all is well with you, my friend.
And Lexa, Shelly has passed on her congrats.
Gary :)
Lexa is rocking BloggyVille at the moment!
ReplyDeleteThis is the only cover where I can see the mistake...
And I hope you've recovered from those spitwads! LOL
Hi Michelle Wallace,
DeleteLexa is rocking the world of blogging. Right Lexa?
There is a mistake on the cover on my site? :)
The spitwads have been almost wiped away! LOL
Gary :)
Wait a minute. I thought the mistake was the eye color. But on this cover they're brown. On Alex's they're purple. Now I'm confused. (What else is new?) ;0)
ReplyDeleteHi Sherry,
DeleteWelcome to ongoing wonderful world of confusion :)
Gary :)
Hi Gary & Penny!
ReplyDeleteLong time no visit from me. Can we blame it on the "bossanova"? By the way, I suspect glasses for pharoah are something new...hmm? Of course, after centuries of looking across the sand they might come in handy.
I'll get back soon. Take care... and happy belated birthday to Tristan.
Dixie
Hi Dixie,
DeleteHow lovely to see you. Penny is thrilled you have come to visit :) Good point about the sand. During a sandstorm, glasses would of come in mighty handy.
I'm really glad you visited, Dixie. Thank you for the belated birthday wishes to Tristan. Very kind of you.
Gary :)
How fun! Love this idea and wish Lexa the best of luck. This story sounds like a winner.
ReplyDeleteFound it! :)
Jess
Hi Jess,
DeleteAh yes, such a riddle, my riddling friend :) I know Lexa appreciates your kind wishes. Ah yes, you found my blog.
Gary :)
This cover was the most entertaining by far! Penny probably had a paw in helping Lexa with this one!
ReplyDeleteJulie
Hi Julie,
DeleteOf course, the most entertaining cover would be on my site :) Penny advised Lexa on this cover. You guessed correctly.
Gary :)
I've found nine of the changes, but there's one cover that looks exactly as it's supposed to be. To me anyway.
ReplyDeleteHi River,
DeleteYou found at least eight changes more than me. Then again, I haven't even looked :)
Gary :)
I have no idea, but I LOVE It!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 Xx
ReplyDeleteHi Kim,
DeleteThat makes two of us! Glad you loved it, even without having an idea.
Gary :) x
I love the glasses. LOL. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteHi Crystal,
DeleteI shall send you the glasses :)
Gary :)
Hi Gary .. I've really needed to find the answers at the back of the book to these cover differences .. I'm a dummy when it comes to these .. I guess I need x different screens and I can peruse all the covers at once .. still it has everyone amused ... Soul Cutter - good title for this week ..
ReplyDeleteCheers Hilary
Hi Hilary,
DeleteI'm clueless when it comes to such things. I know what you mean about needing different screens to have it make some semblance of sense. An amusing time all round. An interesting title, for sure.
Take care, Hilary.
Gary :)
I see it. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Beverly,
DeleteI think this cover may have been the easiest one :)
Gary
Just wanted to make special note to the lovely Lexa. I think it was very good of her to go and thank each person who commented here by commenting back on their sites. A nice, personal touch. Thanks for that, Lexa.
ReplyDeleteGary :)
She needs a newspaper column
ReplyDeleteAha, human, John Gray,
DeletePaw chance, have you commented on the wrong pawsting?
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar! :)
