Winning Against The Wackos In Your Life is a well-written, hilarious, self-help book. It breaks down the crazies that circle us into 4 varying degrees and gives us everything we need to know to spot and remove them from our lives. Christina’s writing style was bright, cheerful and downright uplifting, so we needed a cover that was just as bright, just as cheerful and just as humorous as she is.
A main point that the book hits upon is that most forces that enter our life in a destructive manner are from completely unexpected sources: best friends of years, family members, friendly faced co-workers. The fact is that though there’s a visual stereotype of your average “wacko”, the reality is that more often than not you can not deduce the level of wackocity one brings to the table upon first glance. But wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could. And that was the launching pad for the cover. Have average looking people flat-out announcing their intention to wreak havoc on your life.
The background ornamentation is a graphic representation of their forces wrapping themselves around and tangling themselves into your lives. Those graphics were incorporated into the interior design as well creating a book that from cover to cover visually strengthened the message of the words on the page.
