I'm a sucker for man-eating mermaids as well as vampires, so thanks for the suggestion!

To be fair, it's a nice cover with raised lettering and spot coating on the dust jacket, and a stamped case underneath, which I like. I only complain that it feels like a cost-saving template design and doesn't capture the originality of Khaw's work the way previous covers did.

These sound awesome! Thank you for the suggestions!

I should clarify that when I say "honing a prompt," I don't mean a writing prompt, I mean instructions to the AI tool for generating an image to accompany a story. It can be challenging because the tool is limited, so refining the language and phrasing helps produce better results.

Thanks for the reply! I don't use AI in my writing, not even as a prompt, but it's a tool that's offered for inserting an image into a finished post. I agree the art is crap, but I like the look of an illustrated post vs. no image at all, so I use it.
