Book Cover Inspiration
This is a tale of one woman and her family. A microscopic look at a macro issue; how we take advantage of the natural world. What are we leaving for future generations in terms of ecological emergency?
My goal is for my readers to feel a sense of fear while also having respect for Mother Nature. To understand our connection; what happens to one, happens to all. I want readers to grasp nature’s endurance and our capacity for greater love towards it.
Coming, Autumn 2024.
I like how you are putting this out here, like this. I know when I've done something like this it's felt unnerving (moving things OUT of the confines of one's inner sanctum, and placing them into the shove and suck of the 'world.') It builds stamina for one's project I think. And brings another type of objectivity into the mix.
I absolutely LOVED that Glazer film, watched it three times. And the art work for its poster is stellar.
I like the idea of you and witches! I think this sounds as scary as the last novel but possibly even more relatable, hence even more scary! Good luck with the next stages.
