The cover photography (and design) for Kami's novel Fists of Love comes from the extremely talented Red Wallflower (Meg Wright). This is the third Paroxysm Press cover in a row that she has provided art for and we gotta say that the two styles go together so very well. See the links at the bottom for her social media, full bio and a reminder of the launch details.

"Meg Wright (Red Wallflower) is a semi-professional artistic photographer who ventured to Adelaide in 2012 from the Mid North Coast, New South Wales.

You can generally find her in the vicinity of derelict buildings and cemeteries or doing gig photography and promotional photoshoots for bands such as icecocoon, IZERA, Skyhammer, and more. Being neurodivergent and chronically ill, she almost exclusively uses continuous lighting in her work...

You can find her work gracing the last three releases from Paroxysm Press, Spitting Teeth (2019), Kerryn Tredrea's this is no ordinary rapture... (2022), and Kami's Fists of Love (2024)."
