I have been informed that most of you do not read nesting comments.
I didn't get a full manuscript request for a novel because I never sent one. Thanks, bots.

I'm convinced that the the only difference between those who like anthros and furries vs those who like romantasy and Omegaverse fiction with dragons and werewolves and wolves doing the diddly is that the majority of Furries are male and the majority of Booktok is female.

All the different illustrations and artwork I did for my book trilogy compendium. Only one made it to the final.

Not exactly the most paired of images, but these are both towards the end of the book "Duality of Forces" (come read it!)
As a visual, it was to compare both Fatality's defensive structure vs Bass' utterly lethal attack structure. Brother vs sister, and the few times you can tell

Both of these photo manipulations used photos taken in my kitchen on the same day. One for the story "Hippopotamus Domesticus" and the other for "Duality of Forces" (see author page). Same approach, different results. No AI.

"Trudge" was one of the scene-relevant images I drew back in 2015 for the book "Duality of Forces". I later wanted it as a potential book cover.
Pure Photoshop vs umm... my feet pics... Paint pours are fun! Still never used it, some people loved it, some hate feet.

Paired image of "White Roses" and "Prism Roses" featuring the dual POVs from Duality of Forces. A bit romantic given the book is a science fiction / fantasy / thriller but sometimes it is fun to make spicy #fanart for my world. (Cropped for socials. Find the larger ones on my ArtStation.)

All of the book covers for my book series. Done by moi, of course. This is pure Photoshop CS4 and Chaotica artwork.
I know some people dislike these covers, but genre is either bizarro or... "LGBT Superhero Science Fiction / Fantasy" with one of them also including "Thriller"

If anyone wonders why I like to talk about the eurobeat song I had made for me... it's because I love the genre, the artist, and am super proud of the work they did and you should hear my awesome book song too!

Can someone explain to me why people in the #writingcommunity are like this?
For context, this is what one gets for politely informing them that "Hey, this is AI and this person is just using you."

Does anyone realize how crazy this is?
So my book gets abandoned by a famous book store, ends up in a little book library, someone finds it, actually looks at it, takes a picture, then Google searches for me, messages me on the clock place and goes, "Hey, I found your book!"

Someone found my 1st edition book in Victoria and contacted me on TikTok. Wild.
Either Munro's Books donated the 3 copies that didnt sell and I didn't want back, or I have a now-former friend who abandoned it there.
Anyone else experienced this?

"Fatality Trilogy – Cover C”
3/6 possible book cover for the compendium. The romantasy one that would need swirly text to stand out and was the least accurate when it came to genre representation but most liked. I HATE this thing.

Is this enough to go full-time as an author? Nope. But it is definitely nice to see that my hard work is paying off, and that there is an audience for books that aren't just Booktok romantasy romance fantasy stuff.
(Check them out. A lot of people are recently.)

"Fatality Trilogy – Cover A”
1/6 possible book cover for the compendium. Also the one I liked the most, since it was the most natural transition from the series. You finally see her in full, it’s neon, has all the previous elements. RIP eyes.
