In honor of #Thursdayart, here’s a #beautiful rendition of #Lyra from my #gothic #fairytale #Stain. I love this one. The colors and portrayal of the melancholy mood are STUNNING. This piece was commissioned by @not_so__guilty_pleasures and crafted by @warickaart. Be sure to check out the artist's profile for more gorgeous #bookish #sketches and #artwork! ••• #fanart #booknerd #bibliophile #yalit #litfic #yabook #retelling #aghowardbooks #fantasy #retelling #OnceUponANightmare #bookworm #bookstagram #booklovers #bookaddict #bookgram #booktography #theprincessandthepea #gothicprincess https://www.instagram.com/p/CSM3JMKL8Ns/?utm_medium=tumblr

For #FanartFriday, I wanted to share this darling #chibi-style portrait of #PrincessLyra and #PrinceVesper (along with all their little fuzzy-eared, antennae-wielding, fire-brandishing, and 8-legged friends) from my #gothic #fantasy #fairytale, #Stain. . . Thanks so much to the lovely and talented artist, @agustina_zanelli, for sending this my way! <3 #fanart #theprincessandthepea #yalit #yafantasy #darkfairytale #ireadya #aestehtics #aghowardbooks #onceuponanightmare #Luce #Scorch #authorsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B9rmgD9gopf/?igshid=htct9hxcmfdq

🌟🌟🌟 Top of the #NewYear to you !🌟🌟🌟 I hope everyone is having a great 2020 so far! I am, and am extra excited today because #Stain’s #paperback has hit the shelves! * * * So if you’re needing a #prettybook to snuggle with during the chilly #January days and nights, be sure to pick this one up. 📚 As an added bonus, the paperback version of my #gothic #fairytale #fantasy hybrid includes #Morpheus’ prequel story, #AlicetheAbsent (not available for purchase in any other format). 🦋🎩 * * * I’ll drop in again later this month to share some information on the new #urban #YAfantasy I’m working on. Until then, happy reading to all! * * * #SplinteredSeries #AliceinWonderland #Wonderland #OnceUponANightmare #bookstagram #bookworm #yalit #retelling #theprincessandthepea #gothicprincess #aghowardbooks #Splintered https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Bii5gAt__/?igshid=1ey47qvcdukwl

Looking forward to handing out these signed #swag packs at my #booksigning(s) next week at #SDCC2019. Just like with #Splintered, bugs play a role in #Stain, so I chose some charms to represent them. Personally, I can't decide between the bee and the spider as my favorite. Either way, the detailed artistry proves even creepy-crawlers can be adorable (so long as they’re made of metal). 😋🕷🦋🐝🦗 * * * SIGNING SCEDULE: I'll be autographing in the Sails Pavilion ‪on Saturday (July 20th) from 2:30pm-3:30pm‬, then again ‪on Sunday (July 21st) from 1:45-2:45‬. Hope to see you there! * * * #readers #yallwest #authorsigning #litfic #bookevents #writerslife #writingtips #aghoward #books #stain #onceuponanightmare #darkfairytale #retelling #bookworm #fantasy #authorlife #authorsofinstagram #retelling #freestuff   https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz4AfvugL7h/?igshid=1uvcbvedcv4x9
