"Death Dealer" An homage to Frazetta. Story in alt. Pen and ink, stipple only - no lines. #B&Wart #drawing #Frazetta #warrior #pen&ink
Another painter challenged me to do an homage to Frazetta. No way could I try copying, so I did a famous piece, "Death Dealer" In a totally opposite style. (I won the bet).

The Dermoid by @beckyhalsey.bsky.social is of my recent favorites, a sharp and powerful flash that weaves in body horror and womanhood and intergenerational trauma in a unique format!

Thrilled my poem "Bluebeard at Midnight" appears in Kaleidotrope. It's about the horrors of Bluebeard, but also community and support and what we owe each other. It's dark, but hopeful and defiant too. 🚪 don't open that door 🥚 an impossible task 💀 the dark we find kaleidotrope.net/autumn-2026/...

That JCO take is not only garbage about AI, but it’s also fundamentally disrespectful to romance novels. Yes, romance is often trope-driven. So are mystery and thriller genres. Why didn’t she say those could be written by AI?
