Hey, could anyone show me where to find the book called "How to make money in your spare time" by 673126? The case is yours Detective Hive Mind!

Pretty sure that's just a photoshopped cover, unfortunately. There's no record for it in WorldCat (even without the author's name) and several other discussion boards seem to suggest the same thing.

Best answer: I think it's actually an art piece. See here

It could be based on an actual book but there doesn't seem to be any sign of it anywhere else, so probably the artist just created it.

And here's an article about another work by the same artist where he created signs from an imaginary gay bookstore. So that seems to be his thing.

Best answer: Agreeing with the above, but unable to resist adding that you might dig the old Loompanics stuff if that cover was really calling to you.

Response by poster: Thanks everybody. Loompanics looks like a gem.
