Bug Stuff…and Other Stories
Cover Designer: Kat Baldwin
Comments about cover design
I write fun, flirty, and very short stories. So the cute couple represent the romance and fun. One story is entitled Bug Stuff and my friend designed a cute bug just for it. We also wanted the cover to be similar to Little Birdie Who…and Other Stories, another very short collection. My friend knows me very well and my writing and was able to capture exactly what I wanted. It is so irresistible.
It made me laugh and want to pick this book up and read it.
Vote!!
Good luck!!
Love this fun and flirty cover. The premise sounds terrific too!
Great cover. The book looks like lots of fun and it was a great read..
The Bug Stuff book cover is perfect for this story. It is fun, flirty and sassy just like the author, Vicki Batman! Congratulations for making it to the finals!
Love this cover! Hope it wins.
I approve of this cover. Classy!
This cover speaks of lightheartedness, romance, whimsy and makes me curious as to what role the bug plays. I like the cartoon characteristics of the cover.
Cute cover, whimsical, flirty, and an adorable bug 🙂
Vicki’s covers are great, and her stories are light-hearted and fun. I love the pop of color and defined style – there’s nothing fuzzy or “blended” about them, which many covers are these days. Incredibly professional.
Vicki’s cover her stories’ spirits exactly. I love the yellow rose on this cover.
Love this cover! So clever and cute. Makes you want to meet the man who thoughtfully brought a flower that matches her dress perfectly! Fate maybe?
The wife made me do this…. But it is a neat cover pic.
Very cute cover! Catches the eye and makes you want to read!
All of Vicki’s covers speak volumes to the type of stories she writes – fun, humorous and very enjoyable!
I like this cover. It is fun! Like the authors other book covers, this one is simple but intrigueing.
I adore this cover. Kudos to both the author and the cover artist for coming up with it.
Can’t wait to read this one.

Great cover. Funny, but I like the flower he’s holding. Cute kicked up leg too.
I just adore the cut little bug on this cover.
Cute cover. The bug seems to be looking on like a matchmaker.
Such a cute cover! I hate bugs and this one is so dang cute, there is no way I could hate it! Love the colors and the cartoony fun feel!
All these comments are so fun to read. I love this cover, too. But I’m prejudice having drawn the bug myself. Tried to make it the cutest bug possible. Thanks for noticing. Vicki’s stories deserve a cute cover. They are always so deliciously fun.
Sexy and sassy! Curious bug wants in on the action! A cover that makes one equally curious as to how a bug will get tangled up with this couple.
I like the cover with the bug and the way the girl has her leg up, it leaves a lot to your imagination. Congratulations on making the finals!
I like the way she kicks her leg back when she’s close to him. I can imagine them kissing. The bug is cute too. Carolyn Rae Williamson, Carolyn Rae Author – Facebook, author of Romancing the Gold
This is a very attractive cover. It’s just sexy enough to be romantic. The bug isn’t menacing. He seems to be curious. What are those humans up to? I really like this one. Good luck in the contest. I make my own covers with stock images, but the artist on this cover is just so talented.
I love this cover because its comic, fun and flirty just like the stories inside. Kat Baldwin once again outdid herself on the design. The cover represents the stories inside perfectly and you know just by looking at the design that it’s going to be a fun ride.
Love the cutest high heels and kicked up leg , what fun! Most precious bug in the world.

It’s hard to make a cute cover with a bug but you managed! I like the cover because it conveys the lighthearted tone of the stories, and also has very pretty colors. I love the little swirly thing in the bottom right corner.
Quirky and irresistible, suggesting the female bug phobia leads to that strong, handsome rescue we all desire and can only we hope to have in reading excellent stories! It’s the kind of cover we can’t stop ourselves from wanting to take home and devour!
Love the cover for Bug Stuff by Vickie Batman. Love the premise…bugs bring together a couple. Great idea for a romance. Showing just the legs is appealing too.
It’s a cute cover and depicts light romance and maybe fun.
Another simple but darling design by Kat Baldwin. Best wishes!
I love the implication that the bug is about to interrupt a romantic moment. Very cute and eye catching!
I love the visual implication that the bug is about to interrupt a romantic moment. Cute cover that draws the reader in…
Love this cover…the bug is very cute! Good Luck!!
This cover says it all. Definitely a fun, flirty romance–with bugs!
Love this cover! For someone with a shoe passion, I also appreciate the subtle color coordination and balance.
Love this cover! So cute and flirty at the same time. Looks great!
I like this cover. it makes me want to pick it up and see what is inside. Romance and a bug? Hmmmm, looks flirty too!
Fun and flirty cover with a dash of suspense – wondering how that BUG is going to upset the romance. Looks like a FUN read.
I love how you know they are having an intimate moment, and the bug looks like he’s intruding…you know he’s thinking how high is this guy gonna jump if I crawl up his leg
i like the blue background color. It’s so relaxing and makes everything in the foreground look so alive and significant. I like the woman’s long sensuous legs. She looks like she is in heaven and the male looks like the kind of hero who could bring her there. And, is that beetle looking up her dress? Shame, shame. A beautiful cover for sure.
Cutest little bug ever! Makes me think a funny story ensues!
This cover suggests that the reader is about to be taken on a fun, romantic, and thrilling ride!
I love the whimsy of the cover and how it reflects the author’s style and stories.
This is such an adorable cover! The bug totally captivated me (I love bugs), and it and the flower are such great whimsical touches. The couple are cute and flirty. I can’t help but want to look inside. 🙂
Simple, cute and whimsical, like the author’s work. I think it conveys the tone of the stories in this book extremely well.
What an adorable cover for an adorable romance! Love the leg!
Love this cover! The bug is adorable (and I don’t like bugs!) and the hint of flirty romance is eye catching.
The simplicity of the cover is delightful, especially with the little bug in the center of the cover. It makes one want to pick up the book to see what it’s about.
what a fun cover. Whimsical yet not very busy. Just a hint of romance, but not overbearing. And a cute bug. Who would have thought it possible to make a bug cute ! Wonderful cover.
This is such a cute cover! It says whimsical, romantic and fun. And the bug doesn’t cause me to go running. 🙂 Good job!!
What a cute cover, flirty with a hint of humor. It tells me that I’m in for romance and smiles, my favorite kind of romance. Other than auto-buys, a cover draws me to a book first, and this one definitely would cause me to stop and look. And who can resist a man with flowers.
Wow, whee! This is so exciting. Thank you for including me in the Book Goodie cover contest. I think Kat Baldwin outdid herself. It’s cute, sassy, and fun with a dash of romance.
