I've become addicted to commissioning art of my characters, I fear. Someone please stage an intervention. (or buy my book so I can afford more art)

In the home stretch of editing the secret project

Another WIP Wednesday for the super secret Demon of the Deep project.

Just a little snippet of Demon of the Deep book 2.

Attending my first ever event as an author in a few weeks!

Since we're almost at the end of January I figured it's about time I gave a sales update for Demon of the Deep. DotD came out on October 15th of 2024 so it has been about 3 and a half months since it's release date, so here are it's sales (to date 1/27/25) 🧵

Going through my manuscript and editing out as many instances of the word 'was' as possible. This is mind-numbing.

Hand wrote 40 pages of sequel today and my hand/wrist is ✨suffering✨

Book mail 🥰

The most beautiful cover art just landed in my inbox 😱

WIP Wednesday, secret 'Demon of the Deep' adjacent project

In the editing trenches once again. Just cut 100 words from the super secret project

Daily(ish) wordcounts: Jan 15th - 557 Jan 16th - 449 Jan 17th - 339 Jan 20th - 120 Not my best week but not too shabby!

My spicy little pirate book, Demon of the Deep, is a finalist for the Indie Ink Awards in the Writing the Future We Need: Bisexual or Biromantic Representation category! Thank you to everyone who nominated and voted.

Just finished reading ‘Don’t Let the Forest In’ by C.G. Drews and let me tell you I am genuinely distraught, this book has ruined my life and sanity. 5 stars

First post on Bluesky so I guess I will introduce myself! I'm Briar Belmont. I write spicy LGBTQ+ romance, and my debut book, Demon of the Deep is out now! It's a spicy MM romance that follows two rival pirate captains as they go from obsessed with revenge to obsessed with each other.
