Clair Obscur-ing my OC as today's warm-up drawing. Val would object to being called French but he deserves it.

Digital sketch of my OC Val from my book GOR, but in the Clair Obscur (game) Baguette outfit: black pants, striped shirt, suspenders, and a baguette behind his back. He also has round black sunglasses.
He has a metallic right leg and a magic device floating over his hand (a mix of Lune's weapon from the game and Val's time-machine from my book)

Quote with how you draw women 🔥 👁️

Detailed portrait of my OC Eishan from the book ABYSS. She's a woman in her 20's. White skin, golden-blond hair, green eyes. Wearing a white shirt and a red coat.

Half body digital painting of Lucatiel from the game Dark Souls 2. She's a woman with light skin, brown hair in a long braid, armor, and a big hat. She's clutching the cursed half of her face and making a pained expression, like she has a headache. Screenshots from her wiki page are placed above her, saying "... Maybe we're all cursed... From the moment we're born..." and "My name is Lucatiel. I beg of you, remember my name. For I may not myself..."

Digital illustration, portrait of my OC Y : an older woman looks mysteriously to the side. She has light brown skin, straight brown hair with greying strands, and bright red eyes. There are stars in the shadows of her face and coat.

Digitally painted portrait of a person with brown skin and graying-brown hair, red and gold jewelry, and big poofy red sleeves.

I'm using my artist powers to make my own shitposts. #ocsky #AownaABYSSWIP

Silly sketch of my ABYSS characters. On the top row, five characters are drawn thinking "Unlike everyone else here, I bet *I* could comprehend the Horrors". They are all standing normally and look smug/confident.
In the middle, the text reads: "(1) horror later:"
Then on the bottom row, from left to right: a woman is sitting with her knees to her chest, arms wrapped around herself, sobbing; another woman is covered in blood, coat torn, brandishing guns; a man clutches his head, nosebleeding and screaming; a man lies dead in the dead meme pose; the final character stands just as confident as in the top row, thinking "Skill issue."

In 2025, I want to focus on them. I had to fight so hard for this book, and I think it still remains my most complex story structure, and the one I'm most proud of. There's a lot to be uncertain about at the moment, so a book about fighting fate and not conforming to expectations should fit right it

the twitter pitch that got me my agent + the tweet thread that started it all 😎 Hammajang Luck will be published in the UK on December 12th and the US on January 14th!!!

screenshot of a twitter pitch that reads "GHOST IN THE SHELL X GAY OCEANS 8. Edie & Angel were thick as thieves until Angel's betrayal. With debts to pay and a grudge to bear, they must reunite for one last heist. Their lives are on the line--and so is their second chance at something more. #APIpit #SF #A #PI #LGBT"

screenshot of a series of tweets that reads "OKAY. LISTEN. childhood friends to enemies to lovers, but they're rival lesbian thieves who have to come together for One Last Job. they were street ruffians turned accomplished thieves, making waves in the city until they're MADE. they're separated when one of them gets thrown in jail, the other escapes with the loot and starts livin' large. when they're finally released, the caught one holds a GRUDGE. but they need to put their differences aside when the duo are hired for the same job: take down an evil corporate exec. will their history prevent them from getting through this Last Job alive? can they move on from the past and let old wounds heal? ... is there the possibility of something more?"

✨ YA BOOK NEWS ✨ I'm so excited to announce that my next YA duology, a romantasy called WICKED ENDEAVORS, is coming in Summer 2026! If So Let Them Burn was about the power of love, then Wicked Endeavors is about the poisonous yet motivating power of hate. Black female rage abounds in this one 😈

Author of So Let Them Burn and the forthcoming This Ends In Embers Kamilah Cole's WICKED ENDEAVORS, a YA romantasy duology set in a Spanish Renaissance-inspired kingdom, about a vengeful teen who cons her way into a high society of elite witches, only for her revenge to be threatened by her warring feelings for both a manipulative enemy prince and the stoic childhood friend who betrayed her, pitched as a love letter to the power of Black women's anger, to Alexandra Hightower at Little, Brown Children's, in a six-figure deal , at auction, in a two-book deal, for publication in summer 2026, by Emily Forney at BookEnds (world).

anyone who followed me from twitter has already seen this one, but here's a quick guide to my #amquerying sapphic YA fantasy with: 🖤 doomed lovers 🌟 dead gods 🗡️ knives 🦴 and a whole lot of bones art on the last slide is by @/calicoture

an agent's guide to emery harlow's guide to knives and necromancy. the background is black, and there are a few gold graphics of a radiating sun, stars, a knife, and a skeletal arm and hand scattered around. there's a moodboard in the center with the following squares: two hands, pinkies linked, one hand skeletal and one flesh. a line of knives. a black square. lots of white flowers against a dark background. art of people reaching toward a golden sun. two hands reaching for each other. a black square. text that says "we do terrible things for the people we love." art of hands reaching toward a beam of light.

the pitch:
sapphic upper ya fantasy
90k
When young necromancer emery harlow’s mistake ends in her sibling’s kidnapping, she sets out to rescue them from her mother’s lifelong rival. what she doesn’t expect is to discover a plot to destroy necromancy, to be hassled by a long-dead god, or to fall for her mortal enemy’s child.

The comps:
the godly feuds of...(and then the cover of divine rivals by rebecca ross)
the snarky humor of...(and then the cover of little thieves by margaret owen)
the magical bargaining of...(and then the cover of the first volume of the fullmetal editions of fullmetal alchemist by hiromu arakawa)

the characters:
this one is a trope graphic with my calicoture art of emery and aria dancing in a field of flowers. the tropes are as follows:
doomed from the start (indicates both of them)
full time menace, part-time necromancer (indicates emery)
nb lesbian li x arospec lesbian mc (indicates both)
professional (yet unpaid) nerd (indicates aria)
children of lifelong rivals (both)

FATED WINDS AND PROMISING SEAS is out in 5 days. It's a book about many things, but ultimately, it is a book about learning to heal, learning to trust, about how these things are not linear, and how healers need to healing and support too. The relationship between these two is so precious to me.

The two main characters sitting on top of the book with the words around th edge in clockwise - Hey, you're not your past, safe, you can do this, I'm not going to hurt you, please, you're safe.
