Don't mind me, just over here making myself cry in the cafe while working on book 2 of the Belamour Archives. (Sneak peek below for those who want to suffer with me. Content warning for funeral talk and cremation in regards to Leo's sister.)

Its like you change ONE little detail in book 2, and all of a sudden 9 different things have to change in book 4. How!? And keeping track of all the lore, then forgetting to update it when changes happen, so now you dont remember which is canon and which is old!? Who let me do this!?

How do people write such long ass series? My Belamour series is only 4 books, and Im constantly finding holes I need to fill or problems Ive created that throw something else off down the line.

Me: Ugh b3 is kicking my ass! I cannot figure this plot out and I have all these tiny issues! The bestie: Well what about this suggestion to one of the smaller problems? Me: ... omg I think that solved my big problem too! Thank the Tapestry for @eldritchflower.bsky.social . My hero!

PSA for those wanting to write books about labyrinths... don't do it. You dont have to put yourself through that. Its not too late. Save yourself. Sincerely, Your friendly neighborhood author with a headache (Disclaimer: this is a joke, totally gimme more labyrinth books. Just know they are HARD.)

I love Met Gala season because it gives me great references for fashion in Aos Si. Everything is so fantastical, I can't wait to figure out what ridiculous outfits I'm going to put my characters in.

Mawce Hanlin ||Author @mawcehanlin.bsky.social · 03/05/2026

Finally getting back into drafting mode, and I just need everyone to know that I'm hilarious. Thank you.

Brat, I couldn't help thinking as I glared at them. They knew very well that I was clearing the kids out of the house this weekend for a reason. "You're on thin ice, mischief."

"Good thing you got me ice skating lessons for my fourteenth birthday then."

🦋🦋🦋 All Things Devour is now available in paperback, eBook, and on KU! You can also get signed editions on Etsy! 🦋🦋🦋

Mawce Hanlin's All Things Devour is romantically haunting, poetically stunning, and will strike a visceral chord with anyone who has ever hungered for a taste of belonging. Theo, Azizi, and Kolfina are each brilliantly crafted and Hanlin brings them to life in a way that will leave you yearning to witness their respective arts with your own senses. This is a triumphant work of gothic romance that I could not put down!

#QueerPrompts April 2 In Under the Dragon Moon by @mawcehanlin.bsky.social, the MC Mael has sensory issues related to being autistic that include "Acute Arcane Synesthesia," which means he senses magic and it can overwhelm him. This makes the story's magic more immersive.

Just a reminder to anyone seeing all the "(blank) is a sign of AI in writing", please remember that AI is trained off writers. AI uses em-dashes because WE use em-dashes. Dont go accusing people without better evidence, it can end careers/books that may have had absolutely no AI involvement at all.

Just finished this ARC by @mawcehanlin.bsky.social and wow, this was fantastic. I don’t even know when to say that won’t be a spoiler! Paranormal polycule, shitty people getting what’s coming to them, finding where you belong in the world? Idk, get this book when it releases and see for yourself!

Hey computer? It'd be super nice if you could not start freezing on me and glitching out while Im trying to finish edits. Im on a deadline. Be nice to me!

020

Mawce Hanlin ||Author @mawcehanlin.bsky.social · 26/01/2026

Thank goodness I have @eldritchflower.bsky.social to help drag me out of my last minute editing spirals because I was about to scrap half of the second part of ATD only a week or two before ARCs went out before he helped me figure out how to fix it.

Mawce Hanlin ||Author @mawcehanlin.bsky.social · 24/01/2026

The problem with the bestie being out of town for family stuff this weekend is that I'm working on final edits of ATD before the ARCs go out, and I need him to bounce changes off of! 😭

🫀 ANNOUNCEMENT 🫀 SURPRISE! I'm finally coming off hiatus, which means something exciting is coming soon!!! Keep an eye out for the cover reveal for WallpaperWIP! 🥀🥀🥀

Is it the nature of monsters to be drawn to the dark, or is it fear which drives them to hide within its empty embrace?
All Theodore Villin has ever known is hiding from his own monsters—be that the feminine stranger he sees in the mirror, the sinful cravings that claw at the pits of his stomach, or the devil Father Thompson says has taken root in his very soul. His running never ends.
But when the abandoned manor atop Widow’s Peak is purchased at last, Theodore finds himself surrounded by monsters he does not wish to hide from. An artist who paints death and decay. A ghost being devoured by the wallpaper. And himself, whose monster lingers behind his teeth and waits.
He need only open his mouth,
and eat.
