The Next Great Novel

Love this one - top pick from me and I suspect many others. Very nicely composed, perfect in black and white, and gets an extra point for nostalgia - my parents were both journalists and newspaper people and the rapid clicking of manual typewriter keys will always be in my auditory memory.

Love the colors and the words on words look of this one. Wish it didn't have those two mitered corners. Still one of my top picks. Voted earlier; back to comment.

One of my very favorites - I absolutely adore the find! I'm torn between liking the subdued presentation and wishing for more pop, especially in the wonderful textures. Voted earlier; back to comment.

I searched this title. 37 matches and not one a DQ. Then I searched Keep Off the Grass. Another 3 matches. No DQ. I give up.

I didn't have time to bump to 8's, 9's and 10's but this got one of my few 7's. I do agree with jomari and I would at least have colored them quite dark - as well as the small cluster of white stones against the frame right side just above the midpoint. Wonderful picture though and not just for the challenge

Love it. Expected at least an HM here. Congrats on the nice finish though.
