#ScribesAndMakers 2.18 — Our next featured creator has done her own book covers. Have you ever or would you ever do your own cover?

I do! I make all of my own covers. Ironically, mine are also done similarly to hers. But I'll say this a million times, @Firlefanz has the best book covers in the world. And not only that, her *books* are the best as well.

Anyway, here's a few of mine that I'm particularly fond of. I've made so many over the years, but there's a handful that I love dearly.

This is a cover for The Fire Raven Society: Chronicles of the Moonlit Coven. On the bottom, it says my name, "P. Fedorko." There's a border going around the entire cover, flowers that almost look Victorian in art style. There's a drawn dagger in the center, and it's covered by vines.

This is a white and red cover for The Scarlet Mirror. At the top is my name, "P. Fedorko." There's a warrior towards the bottom. He's in a full set of red and black fantasy armor, the eyes in his helmet glowing red. It also has horns.

This is a black book cover with a clipping of a moth in the center of the cover. On top, it says, "Wings of Quiet Longing, Bloodbound Legacy." Beneath it is the moth, and under is the name P. Fedorko.

This is a cover for The City of Opulence. On the bottom, it says "The Digital Dystopia Series." At the top is my name, "P. Fedorko." We have various shades of white and blue in the fonts. There's also a sci-fi cube in the center with blue and white blocks moving together.

#ScribesAndMakers 2.5 — You now have the same occupation as the main character of your current WIP (or book you are reading/last read) What job are you doing?

I'm an author! How ironic is that?! Also, I'm suddenly amazing at painting. That one's a surprise.

#ScribesAndMakers 2.6 — Our featured creator makes graphic novels. As a reader, which do you think is more important in a graphic novel, art or words?

Every single part of a graphic novel is important. But here's the thing... It would only be a novel if the art wasn't there or wasn't even worth looking at. Just food for thought.

#ScribesAndMakers 2.8 — How do you define a book? Do audiobooks and graphic novels fit your definition?

First off, I hate when people say that audiobooks don't count as reading. I roll my eyes so far back that I can see my brain. In my eyes, even comics count as reading as well. Why shouldn't they? It's ALL reading. They all count. They're all a part of the creative writing process and enjoying the work that others have labored over. It's all literature.

#ScribesAndMakers 2.10 — What is the most out-of-character creative thing you enjoy? That thing that never matches the assumptions about you.

Ooooh, what a fantastic question. My friends and family know me so well, and that makes this one really hard to answer for me. I might have to say (in reference to new friends) that it might be my affinity for #LEGO. I was featured in the magazines as a kid, had a fully built LEGO city (which was all original), even made a few sets that they sold, and still go to conventions and stuff these days. I'm a big ol' nerd.

#ScribesAndMakers 2.11 — Aside from the official birthday song and the ubiquitous Beatles song, is there a song about birthdays you like?

Does 50's In Da Club count? Because, hell yes. I'm a big fan, always have been. 🔥

#ScribesAndMakers 2.13 — How well do you sing? If you don't consider yourself a good singer, do you sing anyway?

I was in choir when I was younger and then even select choir as well. I still sing, but not *nearly* as well. I'm probably yucky now. Also, random fact, my girlfriend is actually a classically (opera) trained singer.
