Would you go? I'd go. I say that skirt counts as mind control.

Also this is the only real meaning of BYOB.

Not everything's what it seems at the beginning of "Kiss, Magic, Kill"... 😘

Yep! It started as a webcomic though. You can read the first three chapters here: www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/ki...

Kiss, Magic, Kill

Professor Athena Verity—the uptight Astrology Professor who looks like she could kill you, but is a cinnamon roll. Professor Holly Jones—the dangerous magical outlaw who looks like a cinnamon roll, ...

I used Upwork and landed a lot of narrative designer and game writer gigs for small studios, between 5-10 years ago. Unfortunately Upwork is not what it used to be, but if you can get even a small job you might be able to start building that resume.

Self-pubbed three dark fantasy books on Amazon a while ago, now I mostly write comics and stuff for Merryweather Media while working on that light novel. 😊 The light novel is a fun experiment in collaborative writing with readers, cause I like working with a "team" even when writing alone 🥰

Not really! Cozy mystery is a new genre for me, although I do love to read mysteries. I'm a bit more comfortable with sci-fi and fantasy. Got a sci-fi shonen comic coming out soon!

Cozy magical yuri murder mystery...very exclusive genre. 😆

Trying a new thing: applying comic-writing principles to book writing.

I always draft the dialogue of a comic first, to make sure the panel count is right and pacing is good. Then I go back in with scene descriptions

Doing the same now with my light novel chapters and it's both fun and effective!

Being recorded makes me anxious and I hate the sound of my own voice (too sibilant).

But there are so many VAs in my feed I kind of want to join them? They make it sound so fun! 😆

It was raining when I got off the night bus at 4:40 am. A random Japanese man handed me his blue umbrella, told me it was a present, and walked away.

Following is a picrew reenactment; certain elements have been dramatized for storytelling purposes.

The Grave Conversations show has David Dastmalchian (Polka Dot Man, Dr. Gurathin, Gemini Killer) interviewing other celebrities while they're both lying down in their own premium coffins.

The fact that this show has less than 30k subscribers on Youtube is a sin.

Fix. It.
