It’s still cranking away (68% done). I’m reviewing and deleting as it goes, which will probably confuse it when it tries to show the results, but whatever. Checklist: Weapon. Glowing stuff. Monsters. Color. Not photo-realistic. My criteria: not anime, ridiculous muscles, and a not-obscene crotch. There’s something a little weird about the wolf on theContinue reading “Winner So Far”

Space and Time
Chapter 7 remains done. Chapters 8, 9, 10, and 11 are undergoing serious edits. One of the reasons that our intrepid hero becomes over powered is that he is the first on Earth to claim a sector. With no instruction manual, no one knows this is even a “thing”. He does it the way dogsContinue reading “Space and Time”
Illustration
That cover is an example of illustrating the book. I really like it, even now. However, it falls into that cartoon-ish category I want to avoid. Tom and Luke don’t partially shift, at least not yet, so the guy with the werewolf head is not a thing. Digression: That’s a font problem. What the heckContinue reading “Illustration”
Blurb
I’m rather post-y today. That horrible image is from the same prompt that worked, but a different model. I’m not going to link to it because I’m sure it’s fine for other things and this absolutely, insanely bad (all 36 are; this is not cherry-picked for awfulness). Now that I (sort of) have a cover,Continue reading “Blurb”
Much Better Model
This is from Indigo Void Furry Fused XL / Furry NoobAI. Checklist: Weapon. Glowing Eyes. Monsters. A bit Monochrome. Not Photo-realistic. If only he were looking down, not up. These are the best two from an small initial run to see if it worked. I’m cranking out a thousand of them, now. ETA: 8 hours.Continue reading “Much Better Model”
Cover Style
This is only limitedly negotiable. Genres have cover styles, which change over time. If one violates that style, one irritates readers because they don’t get what they expect. This is why “shirtless guys” sends the wrong message. I’m not writing a Gay Romance novel. There is a gay romance, but that’s not the same thing.Continue reading “Cover Style”
Fans Spooling Up!
It’s about time I use this computer. I have Stable Diffusion (a fairly old version) generating images from this prompt: two muscular men in jeans and tight white t-shirt full body hiking boots visible standing close outside dry hills background with a wolf sitting beside them The results are “interesting”. The faces in all ofContinue reading “Fans Spooling Up!”
Chapter 7 Complete!
Not only chapter seven, but chapters one through seven. 8, 9, and 10 are ready to complete, but I’m done for the day. Chapters 11 and 12 are already written. I really need to start pushing forward. I know what happens in chapters 13 and 14, but I need to get to around 25 toContinue reading “Chapter 7 Complete!”
Flow
I got writing flow this weekend! I wrote for about 15 hours. It felt like just a couple. But, yee fucking haw! This book may actually get written, after all. We’ll see if it’s repeatable. Chapter 13 just needs polish and it’s done. Almost 0100. Time for bed.
Life as a Werewolf
In the normal course of events, this is the sort of discussion one has with people. I don’t have people, so you, my vast internet audience, will just have to do. I’m not sure where I want my werewolf series to go. I know the beginning. I know the thousands-of-years-later state, which is not reallyContinue reading “Life as a Werewolf”
