Side note, one of my short stories got accepted somewhere cool that I can't mention until I get the green light... but I'm actually thinking of publishing it under this pen name because it's a body horror flavour! 😊

My secret is that the lightening strike for OTBTA was from a string of Frankenstein Jayvik fanarts. Comets' art being the biggest inspo of the lot. 🖤 OTBTA is in absolutely no way related to Jayvik (Jayce is worlds nicer than my Viktor, haha) but it gave queering Frankenstein a face for me.

Viktor dominates the narrative until "the monster" breaks free, then we get his POV. Once they reunite, the POVs are tugged back and forth between them. Robert Walton also gets a little tiny POV as the nod to the OG. Characters get POVs based on who narratively holds the power at that point.

Viktor Frankenstein being choked by his creation. Black box on top with white text that says:
Ought to Be Thy Adam
You see, my own mother condemned me to hell.

I’ve never had the aptitude for fatherhood. You asked me once, a few months after you crawled across my lab floor and huddled around my feet, if you were to call me father.

No. My answer now is the same as then, the word bubbling up that same nausea as at my mother’s bedside. I cannot say I ever built you with parentage or legacy in mind.

So what did I make you for?

It has two portraits beneath the text in the late victorian style of a femininely dressed Frankenstein's Monster, and to the right is Viktor Frankenstein's portrait. Dark brown background with white text that says:
In 1897, after studying corpses and toying with electricity, medical student Viktor has created a man from his desire for his friend, Henry. Except shame forces him to make one final adjustment: female parts. 

As his new creation gains sentience while vivisected during Viktor's university tour and begins to chafe under Viktor's thumb, a violent death and disobedience leads the monster to make himself into the man he was always meant to be.

Beneath says - 1890s gothic prose - Queer shame/RAGE - erotic body horror -

It has a late victorian style portrait of a man with long black hair and a blood splatter across it.Two hands reach out in the style of the creation of Adam/ One is clearly stitched together.

Ought to be Thy Adam
When none of the other boys raised their hand as Professor Krempe—a squat and severe man with no taste for fancy—recounted the pillars underpinning germ theory, Henry’s hand shot up. 

Krempe sighed. “Anyone else but Clerval?”

My hand twitched at my side, but I’d been a shy thing then and never shown my prowess out-loud, preferring the quiet of examinations and papers.

Krempe stared at me hopefully, before relinquishing. “Herr Clerval, participating again will not earn you a higher honour. No one else? Fine.”

Henry grinned. “Louis Pasteur. You were asking about fermentation and its implications on bacterial colonization. Pasteur is the answer.” 

The other boys groaned with gamesome exhaustion. Like Henry was something to be, reluctantly but lovingly, indulged.

In ONE MONTH, I'll be releasing my upcoming novel, The Witch of Eden Hollow! 🌈📚 Features 2 older transmasc leads (a witch and his hunter) and a closeted gay man trying to understand his gift for magic standing up against a Puritan cult. Out October 9th! Pre-Order: gt-anthony.itch.io/witch-x-hunter
image background: a wheat field bordering a forest on an overcast day (royalty free photo by Michael Ostendorf)

Book cover for The Witch of Eden Hollow by G.T. Anthony on the left
[A forest green cover with golden font. In the center is a ring made of woven branches with wilted vines wrapped around it. In the middle is a brown hair. Behind the hare is a patch of daisies.]

Pitch on the right:
Inquisitor T. Sterling is hired by the pious town of Eden Hollow to hunt down the witch that commands an ancient forest known as the Elder Grove.
Reclusive, guarded, and untrusting, Elias finds with dread that the only way he can save his forest (and himself) from an untimely demise is to work with the hunter that was hired to kill him.
Within Eden Hollow, Avery Miller struggles with the town's restrictive Puritan rules, forced to hide his love for another man and a sudden magical ability that manifests within him.
As their lives intertwine and tensions rise, secrets that were kept locked away seep through the cracks, and what they find very well may destroy them.

This is a commissioned piece of art for a trans/gay Frankenstein retelling. Viktor Frankenstein is sewing together his creation with red thread. The monster is unmaking himself by pulling out the thread at his breasts to un-do Viktor's changes.

The monster is laying on the table and there's a circle around it, with two hands reaching out to mimic the creation of Adam. Flowers are at the top, weeds and science equipment at the bottom. White text at the top is part of a quote from the novel: I am not your bride, I ought to be Thy Adam"

Getting a bit cheeky with what constitutes "press" 😅
The monster choking out Viktor Frankenstein, a black box atop it with the white text:
Ought to Be Thy Adam
“You dissect them then? That is rather industrious,” he said without the disgust I’d expected. He stilled for a moment before his long legs caught back up to jostle our shoulders. “And fortuitous! I raised a similar complaint to Herr Professor Weber last week. How are we meant to someday administer proper care when we’re applying compresses to pickled piglets? Of course the old quack did not listen. I mean, for God’s sake, he still lectures on the usefulness of miasma theory as if Koch didn’t disprove it with every publication.”

I huffed something dangerously close to a laugh, something so foreign to my body it came out as more of a cough. Henry perked up like a watered flower.
