Author Name: Dismai Naim
Profession Unpaid Hobby: Author
Preferred Art Style: something eye-catching. No sculptures; can't upload sculptures.
Story: A Place to Bloom
Taco: steak & cheese with guacamole and pico de gallo
Laundry: already done & folded
THE RULES
Post a low-res image of your cover here [put your watermark on it so no one steals it], vote & comment on others. You don’t need to post to vote & comment.
I will pay $10 to each of the top 4, win or lose.
Winner will receive your choice of $160 OR $100 + 10% of profits from sales.
Use of generative tools will result in DQ.
Background:
I’m not linking the current image I’m using for a cover because it’s AI generated, and I’m done with AI [insert two-hour political rant]. You’ll probably see it if you go to my profile page, though. But this is the scene I’m looking for in my mind: https://www.scribblehub.com/read/967246-a-place-to-bloom/chapter/1056446/
Genre is epic character-driven low fantasy with elements of steampunk [edit: also uncensored romance]. Starts off cozy and nice but later chapters turn toward grimdark - it’s not there yet, but in the coming chapters, it’ll get DARK. The scene for this volume is five men heading down from the mountain to face the unknown world. In the previous chapter, they arrive at the pass after having been told that the war they’re headed into is a death trap, and when they look out to see the place, it’s buried beneath the clouds [they’re standing at 18000 ft / 6000 m].
What I need from you:
* Proof of human generation in their words, not mine, "Proof can be anything from progress sketches, timelapse videos, screenshots of project files, or links to the image sources. We're looking for any information that can help us verify that no AI generation tools were used in the final images."
* I reserve the right to back out of this if I get nothing but chaff.

What I need from you:
- A high-res cover image for online use (epub & web-series sites)
- A full-size front & back for print publication (or at least help me design one)
- As needed [Tapas] proof of human generation.
- Cross promotion (I link to your portfolio, you link to my story)
