Violet taught me I can play with color and things don't have to "make sense" or be "realistic". I know it sounds silly but at 28 years old I think I'm starting to finally find my own unique coloring style...? I had so much fun with this character sheet 😭💜🌿

Count me in. I can’t do it well, but I like trying build off of it with my attempt at a newspaper clipping #BackerKit: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/e... #BookBazaar26 #BookSky #Bookish #Books #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

A newspaper-styled promotional for the book Heart of Oak. The art feature’s a reference sheet for Oakengrove by @Artcher, and the book cover by @Caranraug VOLUME 12 | ISSUE 27 * @TANGURPLE.BSKY.SOCIAL GELWOOD INQUIRER Beyond the walls of our cities. outside the imaginary borders of our kingdoms, lies an entity with the power to usurp everything. What can be done to stop it from irreversibly changing everything we've ever known? Who has the power to prevent it? Support the Adventurer's Guild efforts to depose this false god * THE FIRST OF MANY * SOMETHING NEW Estimated to be 400 pages large, Heart of Oak is the first iteration of Oakengrove's heroic story against the forces of evil and idle corruption. When everything looks bleak and the gods abandon their world, who else is there to look to? Certainly another god isn't the answer. Perhaps our kings, chieftains, emperors, but their focus isn't on making life better, it's on their legacies, their artificial borders and maps painted with the blood of the poors. But what if this god was different? What if this one cared?

What? Me, jump on a fuckin' bandwagon to market a book? Never! Don't ask me how long this took to make in Krita, along with looking up actual 1910's broadsheets in the Library of Congress. 💙 My store: ko-fi.com/rebeccaevita... 📚 Universal Link: books2read.com/u/mvw8Pe #BookSky #SFF #Fantasy #Book

The US voted against women’s rights at the United Nations. They were the only country to do so. In 2021 they also voted against making adequate food a basic human right. They see people are expendable. They want you sick, exhausted and complacent. It’s a cull to enrich the billionaire class.

This should have gotten a hell of a lot more news! The United States was the only NO vote at the Commission on the Status of Women, at the United Nations headquarters in New York on Monday. America voted AGAINST women’s rights! healthpolicy-watch.news/us-isolated-...

This news is important because all the fucks out there actively attempting to wreck the world want you to think that the work is hopeless and just mitigating the worst case scenario. It's not. Fucking keep going.

We now have rigorous pooled data showing that even without active restoration efforts, cleared rainforest can rebound to 75% of their former species composition and 90% of species diversity within just thirty years. #goodnews

#TBBChat Thanks for the wonderful chat! I have a great book for spooky season coming out on October 6th! It's a cozy horror novella with a MM romance! Uni: books2read.com/u/bw6gwP Itch: applesncinnamon.itch.io/the-witch-of...

Over the background of a dark forest, the cover of The Witch of the Wood by Alex Larkspur with the blurb of the book next to it. Blurb: There is a witch hiding in the trees of Hatwick Wood. They are a steward of the wood, caring for the alders, maples, and cedar within, watching over the home of the beasts and birds. The people who survive on the generosity of Hatwick Wood—every denizen from Farbreak at the south edge to Northpost on the opposite side—respects the witch. Everyone knows the witch is the forest caretaker, and if anything ever went wrong, they need to be found to mend it. When Hatwick Wood is cursed, the witch must be found. It is up to Milo Ashton, an unremarkable member of the Ashton hunting clan, to venture into the cursed forest and find the witch. But soon, he is cursed himself. A mysterious hermit named Cam finds him and swears that he can help Milo lift the curse. Milo is torn between the magnetic draw he feels towards Cam and the certainty that Cam is hiding something from him. Milo must find the witch, lift the curse, and reckon with his own feelings before he is consumed by the wood. Releasing October 6th Cover description: The cover of The Witch of the Wood by Alex Larkspur. It features two men in a dark and gloomy forest. Milo stands in front, a man with tan skin and short, dark hair. He’s dressed in a cream tunic and a green cloak around his shoulders. He has a bow and arrows. He is clearly afraid as he stares at his left hand. His fingers are blackened due a curse that is spreading across his hand. Another man, Cam, is turned the other way and holding Milo’s right hand. He’s looking over his shoulder and looking at Milo with concern. His clothes are bright, colorful, and patchwork. The gloom of the forest mutes their color. The trees seem to close in around them.

#PretendPanel if reading an Old Beast Yaoi retelling is something up your alley, I think you might like my take on it?? 👉👈 11k threadfic (and still going!!) ❤️‍🔥 Full of gay tension, yearning, and old men grappling with loneliness and finding love in each other 🏳️‍🌈 bsky.app/profile/thee...

Screenshot of the start of the threadfic referenced in the post. The text: Beauty and the Beast except the "beauty" is the widowed merchant and the beast is a hopeless romantic cursed for the crime of falling in love with the wrong kind of person.

#TBBChat Q2 I grew up as a summer kid. On break, free time galore, and New Jersey never suffered from triple digit heatwaves (that I remember) As I’ve gotten older and spent more time working, I’ve become fonder of fall because of Halloween and the pretty colors of leaves

#TBBChat Q1 I don’t have a preference within #HeartofOak. I think realistically, this world favors autumn the same way our world did pre-industrialization. I have a month known as “Feast” which I made a modified version of Thanksgiving that celebrates the harvest instead of what ours actually is

#SongsOfSeptember Day 26 Let's Duet: A song that fits the MC vs. the antagonist. It doesn't have to be a duet song, so just have fun with it~ It could be something that fits lyrically, a boss battle theme, or something that just fits the tension between them~ Don't forget to tag!

A card showing today's prompt. It has a rose on a music sheet in the background with a lilac hue, and a gray box in the middle shows the prompt. The title's at the top, and there are song lyrics at the bottom. #SongsOfSeptember Day 26 Let's Duet: A song that fits the MC vs. the antagonist. “You've lost your grip and lost your mind (I'm not gonna lose) All's not lost, don't be so blind (I refuse) Cut your losses, drop the IOUs (I refuse)” (Lyrics from Nothing Left to Lose from Tangled: The Series)
