    Mythic Fantasy--Gods only?

    Weird mythical fiction..I can imagine Lovecraft focusing only on his pantheon of old evil gods and their battles with an advanced alien species? Anyway like the sound of weird mythical fiction. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

    Mythic Fantasy--Gods only?

    Could the author define what the used genre means to him/her in the blurb area amazon allows to tell a little bit about the story? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

    How did you discover Mythic Scribes?

    Believe that's how I found the site as well a ways back. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

    Duality of opposing forces without obvious moral connotations.

    Perhaps blur the line between good and bad, like/dislike by having some of the gods from faction A& B be jerks/helpful to the MC to mix it up? Those that help the MC could still hate the guts of the opposing group.

    R.I.P. Tanith Lee, 1947-2015

    Thank you for sharing this news. Lee's work sings and is always a pleasure to read. Will reread Tales from the Flat Earth this weekend or at least Night's Master. RIP indeed Tanith Lee.

    Cover Art (done for fun, book's not really ready)

    An easy way to visually separate the text from the knife under it is to duplicate the text so u have a new text layer text. The text that's under the new text needs to be changed to black (a contrasting color to the top text color) and moved slightly (5 pixels, whatever) down and over. The...

    Cool knife design. The knife can get even bigger if you want, going just under the text or even going off the page. Sometimes it's more interesting to imagine what the whole form is than to actually see. A bathing suit can be sexier than the actual birthday suit.

    Cover Art (done for fun, book's not really ready)

    Absolutely regarding a professional graphic artist. You could give an editable version of your graphic file to him/her and do a collaboration if they're open to that. This wouldn't be their typical book cover dig though where they're totally on their own making the image/layout under the...

    Aww I can see how that could be because of the curve of the ear. Are you able to rotate the tattoo or may be flip it so the wolf faces toward the hand? That might do the trick of decuffing and may symbolize at least 2 things: the wolf bites the hand that feeds it, beware I bite (since it faces...

    This recent pic looks good. Cool tattoo effect. Visually to me if the knife was angled about 10 or so degrees more to the right of the picture would make a nicer composition. Where the knife meets the hand would be the pivot point.

    Hi Trick, I haven't read through the conversation but I believe you're wanting some feedback on the cover. In art school the instructor would pick-up our brush or charcoal and on our work illustrate a technique or method to help us along. I hope you don't mind but I've done this to your cover. I...
