          There are also swirls in a brush pack. Try using the vbrush swirls. It's pretty good

              Curly Q's? Ok kidding! You can get them from a font like dingbats or whatever or you can use clip art. You could also make them yerself in Illustrator or Corel too.

                    You're not doing the breadth of the books justice simply by concentrating on one House. They are long long stories, each one an intricate interplay between many many characters. Your first implies it's...

                    As a set, they look good together, but they should be strong on their on also. They remind me of the Penguin Classics book covers designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith.
