Thumb nail for a special edition cover of my novel. Thoughts?

Waste trickles down. Wealth trickles up. Magic, a tool to preserve the status quo. Many believe that what separates the exalted from the disparaged is virtue and vice. Seeking to bring virtue to help the disparaged, Dima and Miya will learn the ugly truth and suffer for it.

I need to do more anatomy studies. I cannot tell you exactly what I did wrong, apart from the arm being too short, but I can tell I messed these parts up among other things lol.

Here is my character Zi, from my novel Disarm Evil, punching the equivalent of a nazi in the world of the shattered skies.

✨ Post prompt ✨
Who is your book for?

Mine is for the deconstructing, the deconstructed, and those who have made peace with uncertainty.

Atu are not humans, they are human-like in that their biology resembles that of what a human would be like if their bodies were more intentionally designed. Meaning they lack most of the needless biological inefficiencies and dangers inherent to human biology.

Authors! Let’s start a chain of posts of your FIRST published book.

q/p the cover a link and some words about it. Here is mine✨

Magic, airships, queer, bipedal k-9 people, giant moth people, elemental people, and “white savior”s that eat shit trying to “save lower society”.

What is your MC afraid of?

Dima is deeply afraid of being restrained or otherwise confined.

Miya is afraid of being wrong about ver beliefs. Though we don’t really get much of a glimpse into that inner turmoil given Dima is the pov character.

Well then do I have the book for you! Just look at these printed edges just waiting to make you look like a cool book person.

Post a chosen one ✨

I guess, in a way, Dima is technically a “chosen one” though not in the way this sort of thing usually goes down…

Art by me. 😊

Dima, the disowned heir of a nobel family, and Miya the pious legacy of a family of peacekeeping giant moths, are your standard white saviors sent by god to save the people of lower society from themselves. They will soon get their asses kicked and humbled by the complexity of reality.

Apparently I am in the top .02% of listeners of Tom Cardy’s music. I didn’t know I listed to him THAT much. Damn!

I keep hating and then rewriting my blurb… even after a year of my novel being published. Here is the latest blurb. Do you guys like it?
