Just Sharing [A Random Book]

Future Covers for Future Books

Yo! I'm back!!!

So, I made this random book a few days ago. Before it was published, I told myself it needs to have a cover. I mean it's not really a novel or something but I just felt it should have one. And so, I spent nearly an hour (or maybe an hour or two) just to create one and here is the result.

I am going to admit that I'm no expert on graphic editing like some super talented graphic artists out there but... HEY! I JUST MADE A COVER! AND JUST FOR THIS BOOK!

Every time I look at it, it feels different. In fact, the first cover was kind of a bit rushed. Maybe I was just too excited to publish my very own random book. So, I made small edits from the book title and the author's name then it turns out that it is much better than before. (If I say so)

I gotta admit that I truly enjoyed making cover so I became hasty and made a couple for my upcoming books (not a story though) right after I made my first cover for this book.

Here is the first one:

One cannot deny that this little puffball is a cute one right? Even you're a Kirby fan or not, whether how much you can't stand fighting against him on Super Smash Bros., I believe you will adore this little guy. Won't you take a look at him? He's like an innocent being who just loves to picnic on a sunny day but don't underestimate him because he's a real destroyer despite his appearance. And so, I created a cover with him as the subject along a magical theme. This cover will be used for my "book of OCs" entitled Magic Kirby. Hmm... A pretty obvious name is it? Anyway, even canon characters of Pokémon will be included as well not only original characters.

Next is this one:

So, yeah! It is Sonic the Hedgehog! The fastest running blue hedgehog. I wanted him to be my subject this time 'cause I'm really, really hooked on "Sonic Boom" which a 3D version of Sonic the Hedgehog. Well, it just happen that I found that image of him while holding a glass of orange juice and then an idea struck at me of using the artwork by applying a "summer theme" vibe. Aside from summer being my favorite season (because I love summer breaks), I've come up the theme by picturing Sonic during the summer season, laying down lazily on his hammock as usual. Then what's next? Thirst will disturb him from his attempt to nap and grab himself a punch of orange juice while complaining that his summer break is almost over and he will be back on becoming a hero, saving the town from Dr. Eggman and his robot minions. But to be honest, I still don't know where to use this cover. I've already made for my random book and book of OCs so what's next? I don't want this to go on a waste if this isn't going to be used.

Any suggestions guys?

I was thinking of making an easter egg book. Let me explain how this will work. I am a very sneaky author who's inserting secret references based from my fandoms and snuck them (not all the time) into my stories, waiting for a reader to notice or get the reference. Get it?

An example narration based on PDSA:

Dawn and Lucas are talking about their favorite game character who wears a green tunic and hat, brown boots and a pants, carrying a sword and a shield on both of his arms. Dawn has a crush on the aforementioned character while Lucas simply sees him as a very cool character.

Obviously, the character that is being described is Link from Legend of Zelda. So in my books of Easter Eggs, everyone might be able to depict the certain person, things, speech and etc. from the hidden references I added on the story by consulting the Easter Egg Book. More like the book will serve as a compilation of those Easter Eggs that appeared on a certain part of my book/chapter. What do you guys think? Was that a good or bad idea? I need your opinions.

Before I end, what is this feeling like I'm sinning against myself for updating this random book instead of writing down my stories. Am I... procrastinating?

...

No! No, no no! That cannot be! Procrastination, get away from me!

And that's all for this sharing. Just Shared to you people my thoughts and ideas for my future books and its covers.

Hope y'all having a great day! God Bless everyone! 😇
