Cover reveal for the WWAD First Anthology (theme: defiance)
Close-view background of a green, mossy and leafy surface. On it lays the hilt of a sword, showing the first part of the blade. The hilt is black with gold metal working and a single red gem set into it. A hand lays across the hilt, half-gripping it, as if ready to spring into action at a moments notice.

IDLE OF A PSYCHOPOMP AITA for taking my baby daughter on a walk? To be fair to my wife, I simply forgot to mention it. And besides, I wasn't actually going to tell her, well, considering I needed my baby for…insurance. Scouting out a guarded forest is dangerous work after all. #UnhingedPit #Q #T

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END × KNIVES OUT When their detective friend is murdered during their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly written campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #M #Q

The image shows a horror-comedy novel cover titled "DAD BODIES." The top of the cover reads "THE GAME JUST TOOK A DAD TURN" with "DAD" in a different color.

The background features a haunted house with multiple towers and illuminated windows against a dark backdrop. At the center is a 20-sided die (D20) used in tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons, with visible numbers including 1, 7, 13, and 19. The die is surrounded by red blood splatter effects.

At the bottom of the cover are six men with expressions of terror and shock. One man is wearing a white shirt over his head. These men are the dads referenced in the title.

AITA for forcing my husband to quit his career because it was way too dangerous? The image of waiting for him to come home from his expeditions filled me with worry. But now, he's following this 'rumour', and I know deep down it's because I forced him to quit. What do I do? #ChaosPit #W #A #SF #T
