Okay authors, time for a little fun!

Drop your answers below! And YES… you have to pick. 😆

You know I get random ideas that come to mind, and I have to immediately ACT on them else they will float on by like a CLOUD. So, this idea of giving out author advice popped in my had and I had to share it instead of SAVE it.. 👇 𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗦𝗘𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗨𝗡𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗢𝗞𝗜𝗘 𝗔𝗗𝗩𝗜𝗖𝗘: Create a photorealistic image featuring a book in the background and an open fortune cookie in the foreground with the fortune slip clearly visible. Based on everything you know about me and my author journey, create a short, personalized fortune about where my publishing journey may be headed next. Make the message inspiring, specific to me, and short enough to realistically appear on a fortune cookie slip. Display the fortune clearly on the paper and keep the overall image polished, warm, creative, and focused on books and authorship.
