Editors

In 2023, I sent my first, bloated manuscript to two editors: Andrew Lockett and Andrew Lowe. Mr. Lockett wrote the first developmental assessment I ever read. His positivity and professionalism encouraged me to keep going, and keep going I did. While working with Andrew Lowe, I broke up the tome into three books and spent the next three years working through his detailed feedback and recommendations. Bryan Thomas Schmidt spotted the weak joints in my story, and with his feedback, I rearchitected the plot. It was another year or so of pretty grueling work, but taking Bryan's recommendations truly transformed the narrative. As a science fiction writer himself, his feedback was what got me to where I am now.

Artists

Dima's work is darkly fantastical and epic. His study of characters was what drew me to his portfolio. I could imagine Yarek, Gameeleon, Wilhelmina, and so many others, represented in his style.

INi-K is a remarkable artist who, in my opinion, captures a mysterious, melancholy, "Ghost in the Machine" surreal cyberpunk aesthetic that is gorgeous. Although I didn't end up using INi-K's work as the official book's cover art, I plan to release hard copies with his art printed as a high-quality inset and plate. You can take a look at INi-K's work here.

Cover Designers

Until I met Anze, the book cover was my greatest struggle. I could never accurately depict what I wanted to convey. The tone was hard to describe, and blending the metaphysical unease with a science fiction "look" wasn't easy for me to explain. Anze got it right away. His choice of font, position, and especially the color palettes really matched the mood of the Morfyk Trilogy.
