You know I'm not one to clutch my pearls at people for any old reason, but I must ask, purely as well-intentioned constructive criticism — is that cover A.I.? Something about the leftmost shoe looks distinctly wibbly. And if it is indeed A.I., is there an important thematic reason why it must be? Because otherwise I do encourage you not to start using the darn thing for covers like this when a stock photo, or indeed a sober blank page with the title, will do. The user of A.I.-generated artwork has become politicised like all the other things, and by and large it's all the Musk-aligned sycophants who praise it, and all the actual artists who are against it. Not *all* the arguments against it hold water, in my opinion, but using it on a cover sends a message, and not the message, I think, you want to be sending.
