Description
I have several ideas for books I want to write, & so I'll be uploading the manuscript covers I create for each book I plan on writing. This is for a book I've finished all the text to, & its working title is "The Silver Pick". Should a future agent want to see my manuscript for this story, this'll be the cover I will use!
If you're curious about this story, it's basically my own retelling of the classic fairy tale of Cinderella (specifically, the one by French writer Sir Charles Perrault, which is the most well known version of the story). It tells the story of a young woman named Cindy who wants to play guitar for the king & queen of her kingdom & be the next royal minstrel, but her wicked uncle & nasty cousins forbid it. Luckily though, her fairy godmother named Athena, who was very close friends with Cindy's late mother, comes in to help Cindy achieve this dream, & just in time for an upcoming royal ball. So, while Athena works to help Cindy, Cindy befriends some residents of the enchanted forest that include a mother gryphon & her baby, three very vain sprites, & a scary looking orc who's actually quite gentle, & she wins all of them over with her music. Also, the prince has his own storyline as well, involving his own dream of being an artist who paints pictures.
I wrote this towards the end of last year & at the beginning of this year, & while I'm sure I may have to edit things & do some polishing of the text, I'm very happy with how this story turned out! If you guys are curious, I based this manuscript cover off of one of my old Inktober drawings, which you can see here:

Anyway, I hope that this gives you guys a good idea of what to expect for the future, & I hope you guys like this manuscript cover. I'll certainly do more of these soon, so keep an eye out for them!
