After some feedback and design tips, I decided to go with a more monochrome/B&W concept to emulate the early days of science fiction writing.
I have narrowed it down to five choices.

Which one catches your eye?

You can see what my old cover was below:
I vote for number 3. Love its font and positioning of the title as well as author’s name.

I have to agree with Shruba re: No 3 about the prominence of the author’s name. I also like the 2000 movie feeling of the font and play on the page BUT I’d like to see the title a bit thicker.
I also like No. 5. The title really stands out to me. If the Author’s name was as prominent as No. 3, this would tie it up for me.
Hope this helps, Leon! And looking forward to your short stories, my friend. How awesome!

Number five. I like it because the image isn’t obscured, and the font is easy to read.

I really like number 3. The font is awesome. I like how the title is situated in comparison with the illustration. The placement of your name and the sizing is just right.

Number 5, hands down. The font is more professional and makes the title easy to read. Also, the placement doesn’t cover the image. 👍
