Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Making progress on the new painting, but now it’s time to let it dry. 🎨 🖌️ I’ve had a lot of fun getting into intuitive painting! Going into this without a concrete vision is always intimidating, but the process is fun and surprisingly meditative. I’m excited to see how this one unfolds! 020
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Don’t get me wrong, I ADORED Mistborn, but Warbreaker might be one of my favorite books of all time. 💙📚 040
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 19/01/2025It’s a chilly Sunday so this book sniffer is sniffing some books and enjoying a bit too much coffee. Has anyone else read Warbreaker? What are your thoughts? 💙📚 110
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 13/01/2025“I am, unfortunately, the Hero of Ages.” You were right. I have been destroyed and healed and now I’m just staring at the wall. 💙📚 030
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 11/01/2025Snow Day pt. 2 ❄️ A little more than halfway done with The Hero of Ages. What Sanderson book should I dive into after Era 1 of Mistborn? I need more! 💙📚 150
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 02/01/2025“It seems that the rebels found the chaos of transition more difficult to accept than the tyranny they had known before. They joyfully welcomed back authority-even oppressive authority-for it was less painful for them than uncertainty.” 💙📚 010
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Me: Goose, I’m sick. Will you take care of me? Goose: 010
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 28/12/2024Home alone for the night so I’m sinking into the cozy vibes. Twilight 📕 🍿 Peppermint tea 🫖 Candles 🕯️ Have a good night, everyone. 💙📚 010
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 22/12/2024I probably won’t be finishing this first draft by the end of the year, BUT what was planned as a novella has dramatically grown. 🔥 50,000 words and counting! 020
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Page x Pixel is outlined for the rest of the month, and I wrote nearly 3000 words on the book today. Rewarding myself with tea & Cyberpunk. 🫖 000
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Tea, a book, and a cozy Christmas movie. It’s the perfect night! 🌈📚💙 050

Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Hitting over 20,000 words tonight! I’m beyond excited about this project. ❤️📚✍️ 000
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 01/12/2024I’ve been in a reading slump for the last few weeks, mostly because of Dragon Age, but I soared through The Last Hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso in one sitting. Reality-bending magic? Sapphic pining? Hurt/comfort? Fight scenes? Campy locked room murder mystery? YES PLEASE. 🌈📚💙 1163
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Helllooooo gorgeous (and my dog Goose being his chaotic self in the background). 😍 Book: A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid 💙📚 010
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 23/10/2024100 pages in, things are starting to happen. Preparing myself for devastation and the urge to make this book my entire personality. I want to wrap Jude up in a cocoon and protect him from everything. 😭 🌈 📚💙 020
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 21/10/2024I bought the last book in The Poppy War trilogy as well as A Little Life, and I think the cashier at Barnes & Noble was genuinely concerned about my mental health. 😅😂 Whew. Here we go. 💙📚 140
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 21/10/2024Just finished Paradise Rot by Jenny Hval. I feel weird and uncomfortable but yet I really liked this? I think? Idk dude. I’m going to have to sit with this one for a bit. I love books. 💙📚 140
Crystal Mills @ckmcreates.bsky.social · 19/10/2024“People are fragile and desperate fools. They don’t know what’s real and what’s false, so they’ll cling to their little truths, because it’s better than imagining that their world might not matter so much after all.” Sick day = curling up on the couch and allowing this book to destroy me. 020
