This story was part of my final assignment for the creative writing course that I took in 2022. For a smaller assignment, I had to design a cover for my story. This is what I came up with.

I wanted to try a minimalist cover that was more symbolic instead of too on the nose. It features the silhouette of the main character, fourteen-year-old Claire Baptiste. She's crying tears that fade into an oil spill rainbow (read the story to find out what that is). That's to hint at what she's witnessing. The thing above her head is a neuron cell. These are the cells that send and receive signals from our brains. It is supposed to vaguely resemble a halo (hinting back to the name of the story) and also hints at her mind being tampered with.

I love the font I found for it. It's called Vallium. I was thinking along the lines of delicate and shaky. Seeing as the cover was solid, it would be easy to see a font like that.

It's quite funny that I was drawn to a minimalist design when I'm an artist that loves pattern and detail.
