I did this by setting the camera on a tripod and making it have a long exposure time. (The shutter speed was 3.2 in this particular photo.) Then I turned off all the lights, went behind a white screen/sheet and wrote "Eon" with finger lights. If you want to write a word like I did, cursive is best because it connects all the letters. Turning the light on and off takes a bit of time and it makes weird smudges when you pull the light away.
If you're wondering why I wrote "Eon", it's because my fantasy book is called Elements of Night and the acronym for that is EoN. I was too lazy to write a capital N, haha.
I'm glad I chose a blue finger light, though. It adds to the fantasy vibe. And the cover of EoN is mostly shades of blue, so it fits rather well.
And yes, I wrote it backwards. I could've just written it forwards and reversed it, but I'm lazy.

My Photography Book
RandomI suck at drawing, but I'm okay at photos. So why not? This book is going to be mostly nature, with maybe a few objects. No people at all. P.S. I took the photo on the cover myself. P.P.S. This is what Cindy from the Time Show does in her spare...
