Note to potential new followers: I block what I view as “X-rated” accounts, because I don’t want my name on re-posts appearing in such contexts, but I do post art that others, perhaps, might view as “R-rated.” Which is to say, please do your research, i.e., browse the archive, before you sign up.

Some of my favourite covers from last year.
I try all year to do as little of these as possible (to concentrate all my time on making books), but at the end of the year, when I look back, I always wish I had done more of these.

I’m okay with LOLs, but LMAOs and LMFAOs are where I draw the line. They’re offensive. YMMV.

Did this a few years ago for @feralhouse. They are a publisher on the side of the angels, a safe haven for all Enthused Ones. And they grok Krampus, the Struwwelpeter of Christmas.
