    30 Covers, 30 Days 2011: Day 22

    Happy Tuesday of the last full week to write your novel! Today’s cover was created in 24 hours by the well-traveled, deeply-talented Jennifer Heuer:

    The Philosopher Project by Taylor_Clogston

    Unknown to the world, a group of individuals set up a long-term experiment to observe human nature. In this experiment, generations of humans live in an enclosed community called Second Eden, separated from the outside world. They are given a code of ethics to live by and then left alone, observed without their knowledge.

    For years the humans in the experiment live in blissful naivete, without knowing real pain or fear, and thus, not knowing the real triumph or courage that results from that.

    When the experimenters decide the time is right they release several of the experiment’s subjects into the real world, which at first glance seems the same as their community.

    However, the more the subjects are exposed to the real world the more they realize what it really is to live with emotions like sorrow, joy, and love rather than as a subject in an experiment.

    Mankind’s greatest wish is to return to Eden. But what happens when history repeats itself?

    Jennifer Heuer is a full-time freelance designer out of Brooklyn, NY. She’s just returned from a year’s adventure in beautiful Portland, OR topped off by an 8,400 mile road trip across the country. Jennifer has recently designed for Simon & Schuster; HarperCollins; Little,Brown; Scribner; W.W. Norton & Co; Egmont; Freepress; Grand Central; Random House; and Faceout Studios. She’s happy to be home again!
