Hello there, everyone! My name is Rook, but you can also call me Lark, if you’d like! I’m a latine writer and artist who uses they/them or he/him pronouns. I’ve been creating things for as long as I can remember, and hopefully I’ll be able to share more of the things I create here with all of you! My previous writeblr was @bluejaybabbles and it got a little cluttered over there, so I’m remaking to get a fresh start.
I mainly write fantasy novels with LGBTQIA+ themes! I’m a big fan of the found family trope, so you’ll see a a lot of that in my work, along with polyamory, strange magic, and fair folk.
Currently, I have four WIPs bouncing around in my head, all in planning stages. You can find my WIP page any time here, but they are as follows:
Iron-Bred, Violet-Born
Previously known as When the Waves Kiss the Trees, or WTWKTT!
Iron-Bred, Violet-Born was its original title, but that didn’t fit one of the drafts I had been working on. Surprise! It fits again!
Short description: A newly-discovered changeling and a human prince come together to find a city the gods abandoned. This city, which may or may not exist, could be the only hope for the survival of their world.
Like Thunder Below
Sometimes you hyperfixate on The Witcher but you’re also thinking about life in Ohio and also also you’re thinking about cicada brood x and this comes about, y’know?
Short description: A monster hunter who prefers to use a catch-and-release method joins up with the local witch to help someone who seems to attract monsters and strange phenomena, all while navigating life in Hedgerow, Ohio.
An Anchor in the Overgrowth
Some of you may know this as Juniper’s story! It finally has a title! I came up with it while trying to come up with a title for Adrift!
This one is the result of me thinking about media that shows how bright and beautiful a world can be far past an apocalypse, and also me wanting to deal with some very specific trauma, so there you go
Short description: Deep in the forest no one returns from, there’s an inn that serves as a waypoint on the path through the trees. Juniper, the current innkeeper, does her best to help those that come to the inn, all while struggling with her own trauma.
Adrift
This one’s fairly new!
Short description: Trapped in a manor they were supposedly sent to deem safe, a prince, an apothecary in training, and two loyal knights must face the possibility that they are not alone.
And there you have it! Feel free to send me asks or dm me any time! I’ll be hanging around, and hopefully I’ll be making more thorough introductions of my WIPs sometime in the future. Thanks for reading!
