Sorry, it's a 'ner er' @Tenderiser (but she knows that) and @josnorgren and @ajaye I'm trying, I'm really trying, to transmit the answer; can't you lot feel my telepathy? And just in case you can't, have revealed another clue (see up ^)
Hmmm. A red herring is something that tricks or preoccupies readers; leads them towards a phony supposition. There are two in your picture so perhaps there are two things in the title of the book that are designed to be misleading or that illustrate deception of some kind. However the words "The End" could mean anything from an actual end of something to a death of some kind which one could make a reference to "sleeping with the fishes" to explain the fish in the picture. The shadows on the page resemble bars. Perhaps something to do with incarceration or maybe they were cast by the kind of columns one would find in the Parthenon. You have added a ghostly right hand to hold the pen which could signify the end is...now at hand? I still have no freaking idea
You should do my Rorschach tests for me! @Arktaurous34 My therapist would be way more entertained. Now...cast the fish aside, they were but red herrings. And see clue below. Getting warm @Tenderiser a word v. close to 'wrote' (add a bit of the ethereal)
No drumroll. YES Straight for the party poppers and champagne! Comizzes and thanks for perseverance @josnorgren
Spoiler Oscar and Lucinda? I spoilered it (totally a verb) because I don't want another go yet. I'm lazy wounded over my excellent keyboards being mistaken for RADIOS.
Okey Doke, another one here; a little more literal than the last. Say what you see. Actually, be a good prompt this for the short story comp...
