Crafting ‘A Healing Love’: Progress, Covers, and Balancing Quality with Speed

Today, I shared the early-access draft of chapter twenty-three of A Healing Love on Ream Stories.

I am now focused on chapter twenty-six. By the end of this week, with postings scheduled for Wednesday and Friday, the Ream manuscript will align closely with my working draft. That means that from next week, updates on Ream will only occur “when each chapter is ready.” 

I hope this will encourage me to write more quickly, though I have to be careful—writing swiftly doesn’t always mean better writing. Two hundred hastily written words that lack substance are less desirable than two hundred thoughtfully crafted, well-written words that may require two or three times the effort to produce. 

Separately, I’ve been working on new covers for the Paul Robertson novels, which I’ll roll out to the various retailers once the first draft of A Healing Love is complete and I have a better idea of a release date. I’ve used Fotor to create the main image for each cover. What I really like is that as well as being able to describe what I want in the image, Fotor has an AI “Face Swap” feature, so I’ve been able to make sure that the male “model” in all four covers has the same face—which is cool. 

I don’t think the covers are quite finished. I’m not completely happy with them yet, but I will share drafts later this week. I also plan to share some more of the AI images generated from snippets of my work.
