Most of the artwork on this website is AI-generated, created with prompts that match the themes of my storytelling and enhance the site’s visual appeal.
All writing—both on this site and in my novel—is entirely my own.
I’m upfront because my website exists for two main reasons: raising money for charities and raising awareness of my writing. Everything else is secondary, and if I have extra funds, I want to direct them towards the causes I support.
I use AI prompts that mimic more archaic styles, to avoid incorporating the work of active artists. If you recognize something that appears to be part of an artist’s work, please let me know.
That said, if an artist believes in this site’s mission and wants to contribute, I’d love to hear from you. I’d be happy to provide direct credit and a prominent support link. If this site were meant to sustain me financially, I’d commission artwork—but for now, its purpose is to keep people engaged long enough to explore the story I wrote.
Note: Any images of my name “J A Darkling” and the thrush logo were commissioned and paid for by me.
