hey guys! alright, since a lot of people have been asking me how I do the font for Shiver, I'll give you a tutorial on photoshop CS6 on how to do it.
If any of you are interested in reading it or supporting it (it's a sci-fi/dystopia with a psycho female lead), I've put the link in the external link section at the end of this chapter.
Anywho:

What is motion blur?
Motion blur is a form of blurring that can go in any direction at whatever angle you want, to give the impression that an object has moved, etc. In this case, I've used it to create a cold, 'shivery' feel for the cover, that fits the story.
let's get started.
Step 1: open up a new document.
For this one, I've used the dimensions of 700 x 400 [ w x h ]. Dimensions don't really matter here, though, so don't worry about that.

Step 2: Right-click on the layer called 'background' [highlighted in blue above] and select 'layer from background.' This will transform your background into a layer so you can easily move it around or un-see it. This is more of a practicality step.
