iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Dean is an awkward boy who will basically stand and sing badly. Steph dances and sings along. The Riot Grrrls mosh hard. The Black Mist guys are all too preoccupied for dancing. Either with work or each other (*side eyes Shane and Alex*) #SunsetChat

Dean only drinks vodka, Steph doesn't drink anymore, so he just has a coke. Max is straight edge so just water, Ali is pregnant so also just water. David doesn't drink so coke, Kat prefers sports drinks. Shane and Alex tend to have other things instead... One Nine Seven Four have beers #SunsetChat

Obviously this is going to be Black Mist. There's a running joke that Shadows would *never* open for BM, and vice versa, but this is a special occasion, so BM is doing them a solid. Thankfully they have their own following so the crowd is excited. This is why Dean and Steph are here. #SunsetChat

#SunsetChat Ohhhh.. I have 3 in universe bands, so maybe everyone is going to see Shadows of Decay. They're a symphonic metal band. The members of Black Mist are absolutely stoked, this is their unofficial sister band. David is sending Valour lots of texts and Kat and Mercy are being over excited.

This is still open, and I would love to book someone by today or tomorrow if possible. My Internet bill is due, and that’s the only way I can communicate with the world and work to support myself. I’m going to offer half off to the first person who books with me because I’m legit desperate.

My work is similar. Theres a lot of people in it who are the worst, a lot of rash decisions made by trauma, parents who should just leave their kids alone, a lot of broken hearts, lots and lots of death, war, lots of bad stuff. HOWEVER people love my stories with their whole hearts.

Why you should use a PHYSICAL scene separator (e.g. asterisks) in your books instead of an empty space: 1) Some ereader / app somewhere may simply not show the empty space. 2) Some people read on devices with the text REALLY BIG. Your chance of the empty space being at the end of the screen is...

#TBBChat Thanks for the wonderful chat! I have a great book for spooky season coming out on October 6th! It's a cozy horror novella with a MM romance! Uni: books2read.com/u/bw6gwP Itch: applesncinnamon.itch.io/the-witch-of...

Over the background of a dark forest, the cover of The Witch of the Wood by Alex Larkspur with the blurb of the book next to it.
Blurb:
There is a witch hiding in the trees of Hatwick Wood. They are a steward of the wood, caring for the alders, maples, and cedar within, watching over the home of the beasts and birds. The people who survive on the generosity of Hatwick Wood—every denizen from Farbreak at the south edge to Northpost on the opposite side—respects the witch. Everyone knows the witch is the forest caretaker, and if anything ever went wrong, they need to be found to mend it.
When Hatwick Wood is cursed, the witch must be found. It is up to Milo Ashton, an unremarkable member of the Ashton hunting clan, to venture into the cursed forest and find the witch. But soon, he is cursed himself. A mysterious hermit named Cam finds him and swears that he can help Milo lift the curse. Milo is torn between the magnetic draw he feels towards Cam and the certainty that Cam is hiding something from him. Milo must find the witch, lift the curse, and reckon with his own feelings before he is consumed by the wood.
Releasing October 6th

Cover description:
The cover of The Witch of the Wood by Alex Larkspur. It features two men in a dark and gloomy forest. Milo stands in front, a man with tan skin and short, dark hair. He’s dressed in a cream tunic and a green cloak around his shoulders. He has a bow and arrows. He is clearly afraid as he stares at his left hand. His fingers are blackened due a curse that is spreading across his hand. Another man, Cam, is turned the other way and holding Milo’s right hand. He’s looking over his shoulder and looking at Milo with concern. His clothes are bright, colorful, and patchwork. The gloom of the forest mutes their color. The trees seem to close in around them.

Not really. October is a month where a lot happens, but that's Aus October - a spring month. So... maybe spring? I probably subconsciously did that on purpose so that y'know new life and energy and change is around when things shift? #TBBChat
