My book cover choices!!!

 


These pictures are just models for my actual sketches! I wanted the book cover to have some type of connection to the title of the story (Pulled into Darkness).
   I always thought about what kind of things lurks in the darkness and what type of things happen in the darkness. I thought about wolves, and beastly scratches.
   A third choice for my book cover is a dark forest. I don't think I'll be choosing a dark forest because it doesn't really have meaning to it. I feel like the others do.

Excerpt from my Book

 

...The animal behind me growled loudly and started dragging me back. My hands easily slipped off the tree trunk and all I could do was sink my nails into the dirt and grass on the forest ground.
    Hoarse laughter suddenly filled my ears and at first I thought my ears were playing tricks on me but when I looked over my shoulder and saw a familiar face, anger boiled inside of me and I yanked my ankle out of the man's grasp.
   "Ashton what the hell?!" I asked the naked werewolf in front of me. 
   Calming down his laughing to a few giggles, Ashton met my eyes, "I'm sorry, Cathy I over did it." he said, "I didn't think you'd be that scared..." 
   "Well, I was!" I exclaimed, causing him to chuckle.
   "Sorry," Ashton apologized again, as I got up from the floor. He did too and I turned away from his nude body, "How like a human girl to do that," I heard him say. He was talking about me turning away from him.
   "Yeah, well if you werewolves weren't so comfortable with nudity..." I trailed off, not meeting his gaze.
   "What's the shame in that?" Ashton asked, "You were naked when you came out of your mother."
   I glared up at him, keeping my eyes locked to his,"That isn't the same thing!" I shouted "And by the way, I'm not a girl. I'm twenty-five."
   "So am I," Ashton said, bluntly. And yet, he acts like a child. He looked up at the dark sky for a moment and then back down to me, "I need to go, Cathy." 
   "Pack trouble?" I asked. 
   "Not really, but I still need to go," Ashton answered, "So until next time?" he smirked at me and I nodded.
    He ran in a direction, taking himself more into the woods. 
   

                                                                     

    

My Revised Story

-When my book is printed out officially I want it to be a soft cover, but inbetween I hope I have a lot of pages that have very detailed writing in it. 

-Complete with characterization, dialogue, theme and imagery.

-However to give this future, actual, book the "go ahead" I need it to have EVERYTHING I want in it. No matter how difficult it is, this book, my book needs to have everything I want in it or else I won't be satisfied to show it off as the author.

-REVISION plays a wonderful part in my book!

- I am only gonna add new characters and make sure the reader can understand what I'm talking about.
