Potentially hot take, we need to let go of the "Authors shouldn't make their own covers" mentality if we are going to fight back against AI "It will never look as good as a trad cover!" So what? Open canva and fuck around a bit, you can make SOMETHING, it doesnt have to be the most amazing ever

I think Lily would qualify. She's sweet, upbeat, friendly, and just wants to live in peace. But she's carrying a lot of baggage stemming from the fact she's a demon specifically bred to kill. There's a lot of pain & turmoil in her backstory and life in general. #WritingCommunity

Originally, in the comics, Jessica Jones had brown hair. But after Krysten Ritter started playing her on TV, they made her hair black to match her actress. (some colorists maintain brown, but still noticeably darker than when she first started)

🔹THE GRAY KINGS🔹 ⚔️fantasy adventure ✖️multi-POV 🐎journeys across country ⛔unwanted destinies 🪞seeking god-hood ⚰️heroes with death-wishes 🌕cursed assassins 💔demon trying to be better 💥war LINKS: www.books2read.com/graykings or: m-walshwrites.itch.io/the-gray-kings #BookSky #Readers #IndieBooks 📚💙

Banner for M. Walsh's fantasy novel "The Gray Kings" with the tagline, "Great things demand the worst horrors..."

Also shows cover blurb:
"Graylands is where people go when they don’t want to be found.
"Since its discovery, the country has settled into a loose collection of territories for the unwanted and unmoored to disappear or begin anew. A frontier with neither king, nor ruler. But there are some who seek to dominate and turn the land into a new, whole kingdom.
"When that happens, war inevitably follows.

"After his ordeal with Bane’s Gauntlet, Lock Synclaire searches for his missing sister Cassie. His journey will take him from the ruined city of Seba to the very center of Graylands where he’ll become embroiled in the war for control of the country. And, perhaps, a greater destiny as well.
"Meanwhile, former Chosen One and fallen princess Katrina Lamont is on her own quest for revenge. To find the closure she seeks, she will have to traverse a ravaged land and survive threats both mortal and immortal. But first, she’ll need the help of the outlaw Krutch Leeroy.

"As the chaos spreads, all hope rests in the hands of a demon.
"By chance—or plain bad luck—Lily Blackthorn finds herself in possession of a mysterious relic that may decide the country’s fate. Hunted by assassins and enemies, she must risk her life and more to deliver the sacred weapon…even as it slowly kills her.

"With war brewing, and ancient foes rising to destroy everything, the rogues of Graylands just might have to act to preserve their home."

The book cover depicts a severe snow-storm with mountains in the hazy distance. There is a lone, shadowy figure/entity with glowing yellow eyes in the blizzard.

Thus far, the most consistent POVs have been Katrina, Krutch, Lily and Lock. Scifer is also the POV of the Prologue and Epilogue. THE GRAY KINGS added Lock's sister Cassie to the ensemble. I like varied POVs and prefer not to anchor readers to just one character in a story.

Watching the various sequels & Rob Zombie's remake really makes me appreciate the simplicity of the original HALLOWEEN. So many attempts to add lore & reason to Michael Myers when he works best as just an enigmatic "guy stalking random girls for no particular reason; seems to be immortal somehow."
