Y'know that Haiku Edda thing I've occasionally posted about? Well, I'm pleased to unveil the cover art, designed by @ergigoat.bsky.social

And for anyone that's interested, here's the first poem from the book in full:

An image of Freya riding a boar in a style of Japanese art. The Haiku Edda is written in large, red text, and Mythic Edition and Nico Solheim-Davidson are written in smaller black text.

Adding stanza numbers to the Haiku Edda at long last. Is there a quicker way to do it? I'm still on the first poem and one of the poems consists of 300 haikus (There's over 1500 in total in this project) 😅😭

Just been having a look at their website, and the art looking like it's AI generated is not very appealing to me 😬

One of the poems talks about Odin being "clothed in fresh gore of battle" and conversing with hanging corpses, and another mentions the world being made from Ymir's corpse, so I'm not entirely convinced my book is actually suitable for such a young age group 😬
