Black Faery Ebooks And Designs

Well, still no release of Winter Roses Never Die. It's now about fifteen years since I finished the first, very rough, draft. I keep changing minor elements of the story which then changes other things that have to be correlated as well. And, of course, the continuing quest for perfection also delays the release. I'm not really an artist by any means, but I feel compelled to illustrate this story even though it's time-consuming. As you might have noticed, I tend to work very slowly as my first attempts aren't satisfactory. In fact, the cover only came to completion last year after nearly a decade of attempts. I believe the reason for these unsatisfactory attempts and delays is lack of confidence. When we don't feel great about ourselves, this is reflected in everything we do. But I believe that the potential of every human being is immense, if we can overcome the negative self-chatter. This can be a lot of work depending on the severity of our insecurities. But although progress has been snail-paced on this project, I'll never give up on it. I'm hoping it can shine into the darkness of negativity and provide some answers as well as provide a cracking story without disgusting elements only the feel-good ones. You might have noticed in my profile to the left, I mentioned that the story has similarities to Fifty Shades Of Grey. When I made this claim, I hadn't read the book and didn't know much about it. I still haven't read it, but I've seen the trailers since they've come out. I see there is very little similarity to Fifty Shades Of Grey. I had heard the book described as fan fiction for Twilight and assumed there was a vampire element. There is a strong erotic element, however, which seems from the trailers to be well-handled, especially as the character of the male lead is shown in great depth and sympathy. However, it's interesting that the character of the 'sweet and ordinary' girl seems more well received or popular. Or is this just my assumption? I like both of them. Anyway, here's the final cover which I'm happy with.
