Excited to reveal my artwork in the special edition of “Iron Widow” and “Heavenly Tyrant” by Penguin Random House and Xiran Jay Zhao

Thank you to my AD Gigi Lau for her guidance :)

The author's poorly disguised fetish

The author's proudly displayed fetish

The author's fetish you're pretty sure they don't realise they have

The author's fetish which they're firmly convinced everyone has and is just pretending otherwise

The author's non-sexual special interest which just sounds like a fetish because of their habitually unfortunate phrasing

The fetish the author is making a well-meaning effort to cater to in spite of clearly not understanding it themselves

The author's fetish that never quite makes it into the text because they keep getting sidetracked by the requisite worldbuilding

The author's utterly pedestrian sexual preference which the text treats like a bizarre fetish because they've got shit to work through

The author's seemingly innocuous recurring trope they're going to have a personal revelation about ten years down the road

The author's fetish you missed on a first reading because it's so far out of pocket, it never occurred to you that you could sexualise that

More art I suppose

I recently started to write again too, so idk how much more art I'll make lol

[egophiliac]

bring back zooterkins, the best 17th-century swear word

I don't normally do Just Characters Swearing, but. ...this kind of wrote itself and then wouldn't leave my head. it comes from both a piece of character-writing advice that has always stuck with me, and also my conviction that Leona is 1000% funnier as a character if his dialogue has to stay G-rated. let Kalim say fuck, but don't let Leona say bastard.

(I'm sorry)

tumblr has an AI toggle you should turn on to prevent your work being shared with training models/etc! it's under settings & visibility.

[sbeep]

Go to Blog Settings on desktop and scroll down to Visibility settings for each individual blog.

[koyoriin]

Sending a message to artists I follow in case they haven't heard about Tumblr selling their art to MidJourney and OpenAI - you need to manually opt out in your blog settings.

thanks for the heads up! i set my settings to opt out, and for anyone who isn't aware already, you need to go to your blog settings (on a per-blog basis) and opt out manually.

That's fked up, what

December + January Art

I've mostly been doing redraws and redesign recently, I really should try to do some illustrations again (and maybe actually start doing a comic lol).

Also, I still don't know which social media to use the most, especially now that I have BlueSky.

I may just use Tumblr as a portofolio lmao

[virgilnolwen]

I'm still drawing, I just don't know what to post over here lol

So, well, here's some wips I guess
