The fae are invading and disaster bi Torv doesn't have any magic of his own. Luckily, his best-friend-sister-mommy has death magic and can kill the dragon they plan to weaponise. All he needs to do is not get distracted by the agender fae defector he is deffo NOT into 🥵

#DVParty behold my completed set of main character memes 😘

The most common error I see as a book editor is incorrectly punctuated dialogue.

NO: “Nice to meet you.” She said.
YES: “Nice to meet you,” she said.

NO: “Likewise.” The editor said.
YES: “Likewise,” the editor said.

NO: She smiled, “Hi."
YES: She smiled. “Hi.”

Repost to save a life 😂

So glad I already got my ticket! Can’t wait to attend this (online bc chronic illness) 🥰

#DVParty day 4 came at just the right time because I recently started collecting memes/text posts that describe each of my characters 😅 Here is my MC!

Okay I just read chapter 19 of the Second Death of Locke someone SEDATE me thanks #BookSky 🥰🥰😏😏😏❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much 🥰

#DVParty Day 3 is opening lines! Very happy to repost my recent Opening Lines graphic for No Gods No Kings because I’m proud of em 😘

a flow-chart with 2 islands. "Do I need AI?" that flows into a final island saying "No"

My offering for #DVParty is art of my MC that I commissioned after I finished my 5th draft!

When magicless Torver isn't working illegally to save for fake magic reg papers, he's yearning out of the window at the mountains of the hometown he was driven from 😌🌲 If only he knew what was coming...

I’m about ten chapters into the Second Death of Locke atm and the queernorm of the world is just UGH 😩 chef’s kiss

I could not agree more!! Preparing for it and then actually being in it - two entirely separate things…

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

Thank you 🥰 that's kind of why I wrote it. Always a win when I'm not crying 😌

Something a little different - thought I would make a nice graphic to share to my IG with actual text from my book in it!! Never done this before so I’m nervous 🫠 what do we think? #authorsky #booksky #amquerying #querytrenches #writing

I thought I was prepared for the mental struggle but I really wasn't!

Yes! None of them have gender and they use the same pronouns they use for trees/plants in their own language! I just feels like it makes sense for them 🙏

I’m also wondering that! Have I sent out too many? Too few? Is there a way of knowing?

It really isn’t!! It’s such a strange and difficult experience 😅

I've seen another version of this pitch and this version is definitely my favourite!

Haha I love the final line! Gives a sense of tone

Thank you so much! I was worried my comps were too Vibes-based so I wanted to have concrete links between them! I would have added more comps but there has to be a limit 😂

I really like this! Very clear but also draws me in
