I just finished watching Strange New Worlds and absolutely loved it! It made me remember this Romulan fanfiction cover I made a couple years back for a fellow NaNoWriMo-er... was so fun!

tbh it seems like a good idea to tag goncharov posts as unreality for those who have experience with delusions, hallucinations, or being gaslit.

for any confused or possibly unsettled over the way tumblr is leaping on the goncharov concept: it’s a joke based on a past tumblr post about a fake martin scorsese movie title being printed on a pair of knockoff shoes. there is no real film, the movie doesn’t exist, & people’s posts are just having fun with the concept.

you’re not imagining things & you’re not having an episode! i hope more people tag it as unreality for people’s safety & comfort

It is now that time of year!

As my tradition is every year, I will be creating book covers for those participating in NaNoWriMo, but this time they will be paid commissions!

Examples of my covers are here: https://apheliongraphics.wordpress.com/nano/ and each one will be $29 paid upfront through PayPal. Turnaround time is probably anywhere from 7-50 days.

What I Will Make: Any color or genre, any dimensions as long as it’s portrait-style.

What I Will Not Make: Covers depicting characters on the cover, word art, NSFW, etc.

You are free to post my designs anywhere as long as you credit me (@/apheliongraphics on Tumblr).

Please send me a DM if you’re interested! I reserve the right to decline if I don’t think I can execute a good design. Also no refunds if I’ve already started working on your design. Please don’t change your mind on your idea if I already started working seriously on one.

Keep in mind I also have limited slots open (5) since I’m busy! Specific stuff I’ll talk about with you to find a good design are found below.

If you would like to order a cover from me, please send me a message to get in touch!

Note

What I do: I only do e-book covers, but it can be in any genre. I will work with you to make sure you are satisfied with the end result.

Pricing: $29 (through PayPal)

What I need from you: A description of what you would like would help a lot, specifically:

Title

Genre

Color / Elements / Symbols / Motifs

Author Name

Specifics/Blurb

Any other specific requests

Color may just be a background hue or accent. Elements would be items/places/vehicles/etc. relating to your story, like a jewel or mountain. More detail or specifics into your story will help me choose a design! I’m serious, info-dump if necessary, I do better with more information than less.

I want you to be happy with the cover I make for you, so if anything isn’t satisfactory, give me pointers so I know what to tweak or even ask me to come up with something new. Don’t be afraid to ask!

free fun google sites/docs/slides :)

I made these super cool docs, slides, and sites for anyone who wants to use them! A lot of them were things I made for school, so since I made them once I thought I’d share.

You may use them for free, for personal use only. Please let me know if you like them!

about me

I’m Aphelion Graphics. I go by she/her pronouns, and I’m a book cover designer!

[apheliongraphics]

i loved working with you to design this!

Newly (and reluctantly) chosen as the divine champions of the fallen gods, Masaomi, Shiori, Youji and Hinami have joined the Magpie rebels and plot their next steps to overthrowing the tyrannical rule of the grand dragons while coming to terms with the much-regretted psychic bond between them. Their next mission? Infiltrate Silver Pearl, the realm of the White Dragon, to steal his artifact of power. The White Dragon who also happens to be Masaomi’s grandfather.

Almost as soon as they enter Silver Pearl, disaster strikes. An unknown enemy for grand dragons and Magpie rebels alike attack the city and steal the artifact before they can. Separated from each other, surrounded by enemies, and not sure who to trust, the four divine champions have to find a way to complete the mission and exit the city. Worst of all, they’re beginning to learn they aren’t in control of their new powers, and perhaps the biggest threat of all is the divine aspect that connects them. 

Very excited to announce Honor the Words, Book Two of The Magpie Chronicles, will be published very soon! It will be available for ebook and print through Amazon. I will post the first chapter as a teaser here on tumblr when it goes live =D

The amazing cover was designed by emzelf (Instagram: art.emzelf).

I finally got tumblr lollll ... glad you liked them! 

Look!! Covers!! I was very pleasantly surprised to find these in my inbox. A very lovely person named Jay commissioned them from another very lovely person, starscorpian (Instagram: art.emzelf) and emailed them to me, and I am absolutely delighted! I can’t tell choose which one I like best, but I think they all suit “This is Love (I’ve Never Loved So Much)” rather well =)

(Friend, if you're seeing this, thank you again!!! They're amazing!)

I got permission from all sides to post them on tumblr, so now I’m sharing with all of you =D
