Congratulations to the winner of #BBNYA2025 🎉!!!

It was a disappointingly short leap from authors doing cover-art reveals without crediting the artist responsible for clothing their work… to just using gen-AI to produce cover-art. It’s disheartening when non-creatives do this shit, but when creatives do this to other creatives:

Recently finished this wordless graphic novel about a boy who finds a leaf in an industrial world. The art was gorgeous and richly textured. It was a bit hard to follow at times but it's open-ended and can be interpreted in many ways. Cheeto liked the little peek-a-boo leaf cut out on the cover 🐶🍁!
