Railroaded tied for second in the 2005 Great Canadian story contest. How three judges tied for their second place vote I’m not really sure, but hey, I’ll take it.
Why yellow for the titles? Well red doesn’t reduce well to an Amazon thumbnail, so reading even the big title was a challenge.
I’m going out on a limb here, but I bet you’ll find that titles and author names in future books are going to get bigger and fatter as designers are ordered to create titles that look good both as full size and as thumbnails.
The title in red will be available for the Sony soon as e-pub, thanks to the open source software called Calibre. On my Sony the red looks just fine, but hey, it’s being displayed full screen and gray scale. I wonder what it looks like on a color Nook?
I promise to get that how-to menu item up there next week. But for now: enjoy Railroaded.
