Art Dump!

The next few weeks will feature some lovely book-related posts, but before then, I decided to crawl out of the woodworks of my current commission and share some art! Aka I have five pieces of character art (three fan art, two of my own characters), that I want to share. XD Hope you enjoy! Which…

Presenting… Lady Stalhb’rin! (ANW Character Spotlight)

The soft notes of a well-known waltz fill the air, the tempo tapped out by dozens of pairs of dancers as they swirled across the lengthy hall. A small thrill shot through me as the beat increased, and I swung in a wide circle around my brother, Fritz. ~ Marie ~ Cassian sighed, turning towards…

Art Reveal!!

I have been working for quite some time on a secret drawing. I probably could have finished it much faster, but writing ANW (it’s at 27k now, btw! And my characters are not happy with their current situation…) and working on another secret project has taken up much of my time. XD But…now the secret…

Lowly Farmer? Or the Exiled Prince… (ANW Character Spotlight)

My mask itched against my face, the rough wood compared to the silk around me a fitting ode to how far I had fallen. How far I could still fall if Mouse King found me. ~ Cassian ~ This was why I needed to hide. Why the prince could no longer exist. The mere mention…

Art Dump!

I have been drawing a ton lately, in preparation for a secret project of mine. But…I obviously have not been sharing any of these drawings. It’s been long enough that I felt like I should dig through my files and pull out some of my most recent drawings for another art dump. XD Hope you…

Countdown to Christmas Day 9

Lights flicker on, and a girl steps in. “Welcome, welcome!” She smiles, clearing her throat. “Today, I have dragged a couple of Lucy’s characters here, and they have… agreed to answer a few questions.” A mischievous grin plasters itself across her lips. “Come on!” She leads you through a door and into a square shaped…

(Do you know how hard it is to think of something bookishly christmas for a BLOG POST. Kill me now and save me from the pain) Ehem. Well, from the title you can…

Art Dump

…I have spent more time drawing than writing recently, and as a writer, that may not be the best thing… Oh, well. I need the practice. I also needed something to post tonight, but had nothing to write about, so I figured another art dump couldn’t hurt. 😂 What is your favorite type of art?…

Character Art Dump

I’ve been doing a ton of drawing lately, and since they are all character/book related, I figured it’d be fun to share them in a mini art dump! Well, that’s all I’ve got. 😆 Hey! Maybe I’ll do this again sometime!
