Nobody needs to rely on AI to make a book cover. Here are some sources for copyright free images (there are too many to list, but it's a start)

If you're so bereft of help and cash that you're turning to AI, give me 100 bucks and 24 hours and I'll give you three simple covers using these links, with the title in a font that is free to use. Your book deserves better

That entails you to almost zero creative input though bc it's dirt cheap and you were about to use AI anyway so you get what you get. Lhm don't use AI for your products, people

Being right years ahead of others isn’t nearly as satisfying as people think. Nobody apologizes for treating you like a crazy. They just come back years later, repeating what you told them as if it’s some groundbreaking revelation because they finally heard it from someone else.

I believe this also has something to do with why people are converting to Orthodoxy (other than it being Christ's True Church on Earth)
Autistic people are cooked in modern times, by being infinitely "accepting" no one knows how to act. Manners and social norms used to help with this. The idea that there was a "normal" that could be emulated and even aspired to, was a Godsend to the awkward and strange.

“Humility.” - the answer Abba Anthony heard when he asked who can escape the enemy's snares. One word. The whole armor of God.

Joyce Carol Oates is much like Buddhism. You want there to be some special insights but at the end of the day it’s all reminiscent of what a smoothie shop owner in 1974 Encinitas believes.
true, different religions at different times in one's life. but it is hardly my opinion alone that Buddhism--as a philosophy, rather than a religion--is indeed wise, "mature" in a way that other religions that are more messianic, zealous for converts, & intolerant of one another, are not. what have I said here do you find "not useful"--?

I’m 36, so a bit outside of this group, but many guys my age feel that we experience she leading edge of the nightmare that Zoomers are currently stuck in If you are a millennial, then you must side with the Zoomers and Gen A

The devil loves to do things which might overwhelm you and stop you in your tracks. Just ask God for help and keep moving.

Idk if I told you guys bc I rarely talk about anything pertaining to The Job, but the DOW assembly was wonderful. Genuinely helpful, and my impression was that the culture is functional and healthy. Saw a lot of people from seminary too :) And had liturgy of some kind daily ❤️

I was able to go to a bunch of talks and even a clergy wife thing 🥰 and also was able to take it easy while Fr learned and met more of his guys. It was educational and nourishing. Yay
