QT: Retro pulp-fiction cover My inspiration for this is a short-story just published as a Blog Post. It might have been published in such a magazine. Share your covers, any genre (sci-fi, fantasy, detective, romance). And if you have time and inclination, perhaps you'll enjoy the story. And as always, with cap in hand, a gift of 20 👏s will be greatly appreciated. https://budgetpixel.com/blog/the-sentinel ↗️
