cheers to the reader who caught the Silence of the Lambs homage in Splintered Mind; the Hannibal ref in Splintered World is just between the two of us ;) (the Martial Law/Grace Chen one is there for all of us, though)

i always love overturning tropes, and this time i'm having fun upending the "he can heal her trauma" and "she can fix him" tropes this is turning out to be a fun and profitable foray into romantasy

welp, Thornbound is now a healthy 5k and growing. a reminder that this is not my wip. this is a rage-write that came to me yesterday. i already have two wips that need to be finished this month and next month respectively, plus a third i'm just beginning scribblies on

this is bc ai is one of the biggest modern cons, and like most cons at some point, they need to buy time it's literally in the con manual they're buying time bc it's still not working like it should, and their emperor is beginning to be seen to have no clothes

being a chaos goblin auntie is all fun and games until two accusing pairs of eyes are on you while they ask what you had for breakfast and you have to say ginger biscuits and sour worms and the youngest one says in a very firm, kindly voice, "THAT IS NOT A HEALTHY BREAKFAST AUNTIE WENDEE"

that there's a nearby tree w/two eagles in it, and that i purchased a zoom lens for my camera, is CAUSATION that i prefer short kings, and that i wrote a feral Aussie short king who occasionally wields stock whips and faces off giant crocodiles, is CORRELATION* *that you can prove, anyway ;)

It's the week of What the Sea Brings 1-year anniversary! I can't believe that my quiet book with my Convent kids has been in the hands of readers for an entire year! I'm so thankful to everyone who has found and loved this story. If you're new, you can buy it today! bevtwomey.com/books/what-t...
A collage of photographs representing the aesthetic of the book, What the Sea Brings. Starting from the top left corner - a conch shell held up in the air, a white dove sitting on a tree branch, a wrecked ship on the beach, an illustrated portrait of the main character, Lynnette. She is a young 10 year old girl with brown skin, black hair that is in braids on either side of her head and wearing a simple white shift with purple shell embroidery. The title of the book, What the Sea Brings, sits in the center on top of a seascape. Beside it is another illustrated portrait of the character Maddox. He is a shy 11 year old boy with curly brown hair and wearing an oversized red tunic. The third row shows a picture of a long corridor of an old building, then a zoomed in photo of The Little Mermaid statue in Denmark. Finally, gold coins buried in the sand.

i wrote a whole series around a messy, self-gaslighting, not-so-reformed assassin and a complicated, bloodlusty, angry gumiho (plus a housekeeper who loves tea, poison, and being right) and it's all soaked in my time spent in Seoul, where there really is magic...
