#DVParty day 3! The opening lines of TO BURN WITH YOU #A #CF As the cloying haze of sandalwood incense filled his lungs, Alex leaned back in his chair and slid a grief shard across the table. “This has to be worth at least three-hundred bucks.”

A moodboard for TO BURN WITH YOU, a story where Alex, a hunter of trauma-born monsters, dies fighting one, fuses with it, and becomes prey to both other hunters and his intruder's self-destructive goals! #DVParty

Moodboard with text "TO BURN WITH YOU" featuring: someone facing away from the camera in a city; dark water; a ghostlike figure; jagged black rocks; the foggy woods.

I'm going through and giving feedback in #PreDV as I get free time throughout the day :)

Welp. This year's been bizarre and my plans got delayed repeatedly, but it's time. #amquerying

Braved the smoke outside long enough to let the dog out and check my plants from the recent heat wave. My snapdragons are currently giving "angler fish" #GardenSky #FlowerSky
