My new book, Rowend Seeker (sequel to Rowend Hunter) is available now on Amazon/Kindle. See my website (emeryparks.com) or got to www.amazon.com/dp/B0HJHHF5P6. (Cover art by sixthleafclover.com)
The cover to the book Rowend Seeker by Emery Parks. A brown-and-tan anthro wolf sits crosslegged in the center of a round room, meditating beneath a skylight. There are leaves about, a mural of a river on the walls, and images of his own face carved on the floor.

i’m someone who lives with psychosis. some of the kindest sweetest people i know are psychotic. calling someone a psycho when what is actually meant is “i find their beliefs dangerous & reprehensible” is the fastest way for me to lose any shred of respect i had for whomever says it.

This one speaks to me
A yellow and black warning sign with two icons of a running human crossed out in red and a walking human circled in green. Text reads 

Don't chase your dreams!
​Humans are persistence hunters.
​Follow your dreams at a sustainable pace until they get tired and lie down.

A brown anthro fox sits meditating in a round stone room beneath a scenic pastoral portrait and beside a yawning blue portal. At the top is the title of the book, Rowend Seeker, and at the bottom it says "Coming This Fall".

Rowend Hunter is on sale for 99¢ (ebook) on Amazon for a week: www.amazon.com/dp/B0FPGH6Z71 It's a love story, and it's a journey story, though they don't know where to or how to get there. No royals, no swords, no made up words. A sequel is coming this Fall.

“The children had little bits of gunpowder tied up in red paper wrappers that they threw against the walls and into the cold oven pits where later flatbread would blister. Casidra and I walked side by side down the narrow street, smelling the sulfur of it and hearing their happy snuffling debates.”

Enjoy your inability to write when the subsidized LLMs go away 💅
A comic made from stills of a superhero show.  The first panel has two superheros looking at two jets in the distance.  The jets are labeled "data centers" and "server farms".  In the second panel, the two superheros, now labeled "writer" and "artist" look at each other.  One says, "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power."

It does the nice narrative work of establishing things about the world, the challenges, etc. while also being the first time the Rowend gets to see Casidra as someone strong and in control of her destiny.

Early on, Casidra and Rowend are scraping by, trying to get money together for a train ticket to New Orleans in this world where they're both refugees, when Casidra stumbles on an underground cage fight. She wins, fighting an animal, but the human fighters challenge her, offended at her victory.

I only have what was made for the cover of book 1. The art for book 2 is still in progress (coming out this fall.) The front cover is on a tagged post on my profile—this is an inset from the rear cover I used for promotional cards. (The art is by the talented @sixthleafclover.com.)

One is considered and determined, but naive. One is brave and passionate, but unforgiving. They've never gelled with anyone like each other before but like any good relationship there are sparks too.

Me too! Arriving at a long-anticipated plot point only for the characters to rebel and do something else is so satisfying. When I first started, I thought maybe this was going to be a "build the party" fantasy but when it came to recruiting the first character, I realized my core duo would never.

My book's got true love, strange worlds, a car chase, and a little fox dude who talks like he grew up being told he was the chosen one (because he did.)
With a desolate city in the background, a white-furred wolf anthro looks happily at a brown-furred fox anthro.
