It even feels this way for writing. I feel because I'm not constantly sharing snippets, teasers, character art, etc, I'm completely irrelevant and no one remembers I exist or that I write.

A Bitter Drink is a high fantasy romp full of colorful characters, treason, and hedonistic apathy coming back to bite you in the ass. books2read.com/abd azaleaforrest.itch.i... 💙📚 #writing #highfantasy #books #reading

Rowan Moss: Dahlseid from Gresha. A green skinned plant man with leaves for hair, wearing lavender colored robes and holding a glass of wine. Arrows with words point at the character: wino, ambassador, magic, confident, is a good boi (deep down), idiot, loyal, plant man plant hair, clever, has the hots for everybody (but especially Dagan), hedonistic. From A Bitter Drink by Azalea Forrest.

Clover Ironhammer: Dwarf from Denerth. A redheaded dwarf carrying a huge hammer over her shoulders. Arrows from words say: kind & forgiving (but don't mess with her friends), sunshine, music lover, foodie (and fantastic chef), singing, passionate, the goodest, can and will crush you (with her hammer). From A Bitter Drink by Azalea Forrest.

Dagan Oyibo: Human from Outer Bisia. A dark skinned human male with dreads tied up in a ponytail, wearing a rucksack and holding a staff. Words with arrows point to the character: farm boy, philanthropist, has stick, will use, empathetic, lightweight, patient, vagabond, maybe too trusting (but not too naive), just a cinnamon roll, is a gooder boi (hands down all around). From A Bitter Drink by Azalea Forrest.

Tani Iohel: Elf from Esterfall. A purple haired elf wearing all black with a sword and arrows. Arrows point at the character: grumpy, "no good deed goes unpunished" (does it anyway), intense, has a thing for redheads (one specific redhead), blunt, neither good nor bad, themby (and she/her), spy, magic, will stab you for fun. From A Bitter Drink by Azalea Forrest.

Rowan is A Bitter Drink's anti-hero. He's reluctant, selfish, a coward. He reflects the hedonistic side that resides in all of us--some more than others--but he isn't blind to the other side. ABD was such a treat to write, and today's your last chance at 60% off! #reading #writing #BookSale
