I feel like I haven’t been on here in forever! I blame my day job that’s been killing me lately, sucking all my creativity dry😩

Here is a dream book cover I just made of my current WIP to gain some of that motivation back 🩵

🩸THE BLOODMARKED DAUGHTERS🩸

“Shtrig, shtrig, where do you run?
Towards the forest, screeching as one.
Shtrig, shtrig, where do you sleep?
With worms and snakes, in a cave so deep.”
