A to Z Challenge – Letter Z
Uph! The last one. For the letter Z, I decided to explore the digital ZONE in this science fiction / futuristic cover. What is your vision of a futuristic city? Skyscrapers? A classical suburb? An old-fashioned village? Or a … Continue reading
A to Z Challenge – Letter Y

A to Z Challenge – Letter Q
One can find a magic mirror featured in many a fantasy story or fairy tale. A number of those tales also include a QUEEN, which starts with the Q. Like in the cover below. Do you think she is a … Continue reading
