Run With the Hunted 8: Neural Howlround is OUT NOW

books2read.com/RunWiththeHu...
Cover and cover blurb for Run With the Hunted 8: Neural Howlround. the cover for Run With the Hunted 8: Neural Howlround: almost entirely horizontal pixels in blues and some green and magenta and white, with what is a face or maybe computer equipment maybe discernible through the noise on the left. The blurb: In the fast-paced, tech heavy future, tech still hasn’t given up on the AI dream. The trio is clothes shopping for Nicolai’s wedding when they’re offered the job: extract a powerful person’s niece from a yacht that she doesn’t want to leave. Word is it’s an AI cult, and Bits is adamant that it’s never a real AI, has never been a real AI, and will always just be a glorified chatbot. Nevertheless, Bristol is pleased to have the opportunity for some yacht relaxation and rich people networking, while Dolly isn’t one to turn down an umbrella drink or two until her special set of skills is needed. There was always going to be trouble in paradise, but when it finally reveals itself, all was not as it seemed. and a link: https://books2read.com/RunWiththeHunted8 .

want to read a COMPLETE trilogy?

three paperbacks lined up on a slightly slanted wooden surface Learn to Howl: The cover for Learn to Howl: a black wolf with blue eyes in profile on a red background, her ear pinned back and her teeth and tongue visible. Baying the Moon: the cover for Baying the Moon: a open-mouthed wolf facing you so that you're staring down its labyrinthine throat) an at all those teeth, on a red background The Company of Wolves: The Company of Wolves cover: a black wolf, head turned to the left and mouth open as though its crying out, and part of it is shattering apart like broken glass or a mirror, with a bullet hole in it, revealing a haggard-looking human face beneath, just a blue eye and some black hair painted by my cousin Hudson Fraser, who you can find at https://www.instagram.com/hudsonfraser.art .

Having now finished both the main game and the DLCs, I needed to draw Anna Henrietta and Syanna from The Witcher 3.

#Art #Witcher
Anna Henrietta and Syanna from The Witcher 3, in a minimalist style. They are standing next to each other in a much more cordial manner than they ever would in real life. Anna Henrietta is in her riding outfit, consisting of a dark grey tunic with gold and red accents, and a black hood over it, to hide her identity. She is also wearing riding pants and boots that go to mid thigh. Syanna is wearing her leather fighting outfit, consisting of a dark grey doublet with brown accents, as well as pauldrons and thick gloves that go to her elbows. She is wearing dark leather pants and brown leather boots that go to just below her knees.

These hand-sewn earrings are the last item in my shop.

My newest creation is this pair of semi-preternatural, fabric art earrings featuring red flowers. I designed, hand-sewed, and hand-embroidered them. The metal is stainless steel and hypoallergenic.

jeremycreature.bigcartel.com
Here's a lovely photo of my fabric art earrings. They're green circles with embroidered flowers, little red stars, and short red and yellow lines. There are also white snowflake sort of patterns. They look like single arms of a snowflake. The earrings are held together with a red blanket stitch. The earrings are a bit puffy. There's a swirly light purple marble paper in the background. Here's another lovely pic of the earrings where you can see a view of them from the side. We can see here that they're puffy earrings. Here's a lovely pic of the earrings where we can see how large they are at scale. They're resting beside a quarter as well as a party dog trading card. The dog is wearing a party hat and sunglasses.

Q: Will this deodorizing spray get rid of dead animal smell?
A: Yes, but you need to remove the dead animal or you will need to keep applying it.
