A cover image inspired by a story I've been working on.

For some people the end of the world was a nightmare...
   For others...
      It was The Best of Times.

I like the dramatic arch of the heels in the blood. Always best when you don't want the nasty suction that splashes the fringe of your pants when you run through gore.

Wow, that is a gripping cover!  The text is great!  It could inspire a story out of me.

I only did the text.  The image is an image you can buy from an image source.  I spent an hour or two looking through a bunch of great images until I found one that fit the theme I was working with. 

If you wanted to use the image for a book cover, it would cost 18.5€ and I think that covers up to 10,000 copies.  If you wanted it for more copies than that, I'm sure you could pay more.

I do that a lot when I'm working on a new story, I look around for things thatt might be a cover image and I often write little back cover blurbs.

Since you and Eric inspired a story of mine, turnabout would be fair play!

That is a generous offer.   

Oh and no offense to Eric but he never had the slightest desire to do a vampire/wizard story with me.  I was actually teasing him when I wrote that.  I would write one, but he has standards to uphold. (hahaha, just teasing again Eric)
