Sorry I haven’t been too active lately. Aside from a busy few weeks I’ve been working on something with Jen I’m really excited about! The Romeros in their first short story! I’m still working on the pictures for this so no release date yet but I’ll let you know closer to finishing! #MeettheRomeros

Definitely the ending of Captain Sally's first story, where we see a side of her that recontextualizes her motivations for treasure hunting. #indie #📚💙

I FINALLY got Sally's reference sheet done! So happy I get to finally share them. I'm currently working on a series of short stories following their adventures, the first one I'm hoping to have published by the end of the month! #indie #oc #📚💙 #artsky

The primary reference of Captain Sally. She has a last name, but it is crossed out. She is a cambion with long light purple horns, though her right one (image left) is chipped. She has a short crew cut with purple hair and split eyebrows. Her eyes are narrowed and yellow. Her skin is blue. She has a long tail that is curved at the end. She has scars on her face and arms, which are purple because her blood is purple. She is wearing a black, white, and gold pirate outfit, which has been ripped.

Sally is lunging forward. Her normally slender fingers are thick daggers. Her sharp teeth are barred. Blue fire balls are by her head.

How to get good at writing: - Become obsessed with RP - Microblog a lot and work out your internal dialogue - Journaling privately and developing an inner voice - Just making shit and doing it badly, at least taking the time to try earnestly is what gets people from A>B cuz you learn along the way

We're normal about leather and kneeling women here

Drawing of a short haired woman in a leather jacket and boots standing with hands in her pockets over another woman with hair in a side braid and wearing a simple ankle-length dress as she hugs onto her leg. The woman on the ground has one hand gently caressing the standing woman's boot, a soft and hazy look on her face.The woman standing over her is smirking at this situation.

He/him lesbians, drag kings, and every popular main character trope but with a woman. Not a lesbian, but the MC of my Sleeping Beauty retelling is a he/she bi woman, and he's also an example of the Goofy but Suave Knight-like character who's female. #indie #📚💙

I think it's time to remind y'all that I've written some things you can read! Enter the world of Val'hoon and follow diverse, queer, and neurodivergent characters in their heartfelt tales of perseverance and healing. SoBB: buy.bookfunnel.com/rktaq3muij WW: voicesofvalhoon.itch.io/without-wings

Even Broken Bells Can Rings
Songs of Broken Bells cover: It features the four main characters Líadan, Minno, Aila, and Vasil arranged in a diamond and all holding candles. Aila’s wings are wrapped around them. The top of the page is a stained glass window with a sun on one side and shadows on the other and strings of broken bells hanging down from the sides

Cover art by Heavenlystarr

Blurb: The hungry flame inside Líadan has been silent, kept hidden, for the last fifteen years. But something has called out to it, awakening it from its slumber. And it is oh so ready to burn.
Vasil, her best friend and the one sworn to end her life should her magic reappear, defies his pact and spares her life. He vows to keep her safe, no matter the cost.
Minno, a follower of the saint of truth, was never meant to find themselves caught up in the wildfire of Líadan’s life. But the fates must have had another path in mind for them.
Aila, daughter of the god of entropy, promises herself as Líadan’s only chance at surviving the torment of the hungry flame. Though, perhaps even the child of a god lacks faith sometimes.
Their fates are intertwined in the never ending motion of the Maelstrom, and it is their choice alone to decide it they walk the road the fates set before them, or choose another path.

https://buy.bookfunnel.com/rktaq3muij

When going back is not an option, you must move forward

Without Wings cover: An angel statue descending from the top right corner with a sunset cloud filled sky in the background.

Blurb: When a fallen angel is pulled from icy waters, they expect to be met with the wrath of hell. But instead, they are welcomed into a small island community that offers nothing but love and kindness to them.
They struggle with mortal life and their lingering faith for the saint that has forsaken them, but gradually they begin to accept the path they now walk thanks to the patience of their newfound friends.

It's not enough to make me dnf, but phrases like "their heart beat in their chest." It's a minor quirk of mine, but I hate that redundancy. Imo, you don't need to specify the heart is beating in a chest because that's normally where you find a heart. #📚💙
