@DKemeridou To be fair, I'm not sure I can even describe the book. Many of the Poems simply 'fell out of my heart & soul'.
There's a few that it could be argued deserve a touch of colour, but if you catch the subcontext, you soon go

[Despoina Kemeridou @DKemeridou]

Poetry is the hardest thing to design for. There's no plot twist to tease, no "enemies to lovers" hook... only the mood and voice, so the design can't describe the book. It has to feel like it.

For N.A. Rushton's "Within My Palace, Deep," that meant committing all the way to one atmosphere: blackletter title, aged sepia, low lighting, and a single dry line, "poetry for the misanthropic introvert." Simple and beautiful, without noise and bright colors.

As someone who writes poetry myself, this is my favorite kind of design to make. Out August 1st. 🖤

'Within my Palace, Deep' coming soon!
Watch this space, great things are afoot!😉

@deanpb_author @EddAhearn1 I can't remember the last time I read a book that didn't have one or two.
I'm reading The Count of Monte Cristo at the moment and have seen 2, and I've still got 800 pages to go. It hasn't bothered me even remotely.

[N.A. Rushton @NeilARushton]

I have no idea why I find this so funny 🤣

[Buitengebieden @buitengebieden]

Cooling off.. 😅

@DKemeridou Many Happy Returns! 🥳🥂🎁

@Pro__Author For the most part, I have no idea.
And that is the thrill and exhilarating part of writing, and why I love it so much.

If you made millions from your writing, would you slow down, or keep writing at your current rate?

@Keir_Starmer Whilst there are some good outcomes from reducing childrens use of social media platforms, I think a higher priority for child safety lies in other areas, such as helping them to not be stabbed and not get raped. Could you prioritise those, for child safety, please?

Does anyone else get annoyed with themselves when they wake up at 5:45am with an idea, find that, for the first time in months haven't brought their notepad upstairs, and by the time they've rushed downstairs to get it, they've forgotten the idea?

[N.A. Rushton @NeilARushton]

@MitchellDHadley For anyone intrigued by the book, this from @DKemeridou , gives a great insight. 👌

@hmdpublishing Many people have the same opinion. It's been on my TBR for a while, but hasn't 'called out' to me until now.
So far, I am enjoying it too. Although I still have about 990 pages still to go, so I'll reserve final judgment 😂

[N.A. Rushton @NeilARushton]

My current read: The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.

I may be a while with this one..

[N.A. Rushton @NeilARushton]

@ImranKhan199800 Oh, that's great to hear that you got more benefits than just a great story 👌

[N.A. Rushton @NeilARushton]

@ImranKhan199800 Did you enjoy it?
I've seen some people didn't, but most people did.
