I'm looking for good literature. louiseblackwick.bio.link www.vivianamberville.com. www.louiseblackwick.com www.creascriptum.com
I had an amazing day on set today. 🥰 We just wrapped up filming episode 9 & we are prepping to shoot the 10th (and final) episode. In season 1, I got to meet my interdimensional doppelgängers & explore the vast fantasy world of my novels. I can't wait to unleash this wacky show upon the world! 💙📚
This is, by far, the silliest promo video I've ever shot.🫣 If we never met before, my name is Louise Blackwick: a fantasy/sci-fi author based in the Netherlands.✒️📖 I'm mostly known as the author of the #VivianAmberville fantasy series & the creator of NEON SCIENCE-FICTION. Please don't meme me! 💀
A couple more amateur digital paintings (no AI) I've hand-sketched sometime between 2016-2020. Each one of these 4 projects depict a specific scene from "The Weaver of Odds"- 1st in the #VivianAmberville epic #darkfantasy series Info: www.vivianamberville.com #art #booksky #bestseller #digitalart
#FunFact #2 In #VivianAmberville 's #darkfantasy book universe, a group of people called "WEAVERS" have perfected the art of "Weaving subtle Threads of influence into the fabric of reality" By using a giant cosmic loom - The Pattern of Threads - Weavers strive to bring balance to cosmic reality💙📚
Here are some more progress pics for the #bookcover of "Vivian Amberville - The Empire of Sand" (3rd book in the upcoming #darkfantasy series)💙📚 Everything you see was hand-drawn by yours truly (no AI) Tools: pen, paper & Wacom tablet I still got a very long way to go qua linework & colouring.😊🤞
By the way, here's the #conceptart I made for "Vivian Amberville - The Empire of Sand" (vol 3) book cover. Obviously, it's still rough around the edges and needs a lot of detail work, but I'd still appreciate some thoughts. #vivianamberville #darkfantasy #bookcover #conceptart #pencilsketch
Knowing what I know now about Louise Blackwick books, I shudder to think the "decorative skull" the robots are carrying around with them is actually a real human skull. 😱💀
A Blackwick story without at least 1 beheading is considered a dull affair. 😁😅
My #Gamescom agenda is officially booked!🫡 I also realize - too late - a lot of you only know me as "that one Dutch author who sold millions of books". So here's more things about me in case we cross paths in Köln: linkedin.com/feed/update/... Also: HUGE things are coming. See you all there!❤️🥰
Welp, every now and again, if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing... 👀💙📚 #writing #epic #darkfantasy #cosmichorror #timeloops #pocketrealities #magicsystems
Some of you wanted to see what became of my clay art project.🤗 Here's my 1st attempt at building a Darkthing - an eldritch voidspawn from the #VivianAmberville universe.💙📚 Darkthings have no eyes or smell, but are drawn to the light of human consciousness. They live in the #backrooms of reality.
My first attempt at building a Darkthing* - an eldritch voidspawn from the #VivianAmberville universe.💙📚 Just a skeleton, for now. His disturbing flesh will soon follow!😄 *Darkthings dwell in the Abyss, in the backrooms of reality, beyond the Dark Door (the door between Life & Death in the series)
5) THE WEAVER OF ODDS (6/11) - my debut novel, 1st in the Vivian Amberville dark fantasy book series. - it follows a girl called Vivian whose thoughts can control odds & twist the very fabric of reality. - this story ended up being a huge success & kick-started my professional writing career.💙📚
10) THE BOOK OF CHAOS (11/11) - my most successful & most complex book to date. - has 16 subplots, 9 fully-fledged fictional languages, 200+ characters, 20+ magic systems & 8 time loops (one a quintuple timeloop, the other a trifecta) - if Harry Potter was written by H.P Lovecraft & Sanderson.💙📚
Yesterday I had the extreme honour & privilege to meet & hangout with legendary Game Developer David Fox @davidbfox.com of LucasArts renown: #ZakMckracken, #ManiacMansion, #MonkeyIsland, #IndianaJones & the talented Annie Fox @anniefox.com in Helmond, NL Thank you for making my childhood magical!♥️🥰
A while back, I've created an Indie Game Developers Mega Starter Pack as a way of organizing my professional network & keeping track of my fav #gamedevs & #indiedevs on Bluesky. That Starter Pack is full, so I created part 2. If you wish to be included, kingly drop me a line!♥️👾 go.bsky.app/Pec2oKM
I wasn't always a full time #author with several successful books in print. (1/11) Truth be told, I failed 100x more than I succeeded. But some of the projects I worked on have paved the way to the artist and writer I am today. Here's a quick timeline of some of my projects:
Welp, I guess I've bitten the bullet & hauled my shy, awkward, introverted arse in front of a camera.😶🌫️💀 Watch the full & uncut (1 hour 20 min) author interview here: www.patreon.com/posts/139192... I also included a downloadable audio-only version if you'd rather not look at my uggo mug. O__,._o💙📚

✨Achievement Unlocked✨: survived my first Gamescom! What tremendous fun it has been!🧡 In-between a busy #booksigning tour & having to be on a film set, I could only attend for 1 business day (tho that's definitely changing next year!)🤘🏻 Check out my highlight reel😊: www.patreon.com/louiseblackw...
Morena Maai also sent me a version just with Vivian Amberville and Kaap. She added all the other characters in a later build. Shared here with her expressed permission. I reckon she really captured the essence of the book characters, especially book2 💙📚 #vivianamberville #fantasybooks #bestsellers
I know! That's what I loved the most about David's (and Ron Gilbert's) point-n-click games the most! They were so unbelievably creative (especially with their deaths)!😄 The puzzles were even more creative. Also, some of the game's newspaper articles still live rent-free in my head. 😁
Oh aye. Purchased from "the House of Future Needs". Did you notice the foreshadowing? 👀
This absolutely breathtaking Castlevenia-style artbook sketch by the amazing Dutch illustrator @morenamaai 😍🧡 Featuring Vivian Amberville (crimson cloak), Patricia Kate (black cowl), Lucian Blossom (Indigo Cloak), Acciper Sparrowhawk (furs) & Kaap as the "Bramble-Wolf" 💙📚 #bestseller #fantasybooks
I am Dutch, so every morning I grab my emmertje & my wooden clogs and I go fight the sea.⚔️🌊 I go out there, and punch the sea, and beat it back with a long stick, and I tell it to back off! 💪 It usually listens except for that one time in 1953...👀 (1/?)
