Talli 🦇SILVER BLOOD audiobook! @tallimorgan.bsky.social · Jun 9

Hello, fellow vampire enthusiast. Do you enjoy:
- forbidden vampire x hunter romance
- slow burns
- reluctant allies to lovers
- mutual pining
- sensual blood-drinking

Yes? Excellent. Read SILVER BLOOD!
https://books2read.com/silverblood
https://tallimorgan.itch.io/silver-blood

An arrow chart graphic for “silver blood” by TL Morgan. Surrounding an image of the book cover, text reads: gothic decadence; forbidden romance; reluctant allies to lovers; a blend of mystery & intrigue; many, many nods to classic vampire lore; trevor belmont x alucard vibes (but like if trevor was bad at being a vampire hunter); slow burn; m/m vampire x human.

Hello #Portfolioday
I'm a book cover artist and character designer for Achillean romance and MM books in various sub-genres.
I work with fantasy, urban fantasy, historical romance and adventure, and can do cyberpunk, steampunk. I'm style-flexible if a project interests me.

Cover art for a 2nd book in the series called 52 HZ
It shows a young man with black hair and his eyes closed floating in water and a huge whale is visible behind his head.
Another man with read hair is sitting in the director's chair in the front plane as if he's imagining the first young man as his creative vision.

Book cover art for "Blood Sails" by Sierra. J. Meril
Two white men caught ina dynamic fight on a deck of a pirate ship.
They are both dressed in richly decorated pirate clothes. One is a mage and has a fire spell ready to launch that is in a shape of a fiery bird. The other hold a sabre. Despite them fighting some erotic tention is palpable between them

A book cover: Rears & Vices by E.M. Caro. The cover has three men: an auburn-haired man, a black-haired man, and a blond man, all dressed in early 19th century clothing, all clearly sailors. The auburn-haired man is embracing the black-haired man across the shoulders. The blond is standing protectively by, holding the hilt of his sword.

Cover of "The Mage and his stolen prince" by J.E. Ridge

A young man in black clothes and long silver hair sits on a stone ruin. Another man with bright red hair sits near his feet and leans his head towards the blond man's knee.
They both hold magical purple flowers in their hands.
A beautiful mysterious garden is in the background.

If you like your vampires weird, horny, violent, noble, AND monstrous, THE FEALTY OF MONSTERS is set in a world where vampires live alongside humans, both as nobles and as beasts,

The beasts are based on mosquitos and bats because I wanted to honor where I'm from in Poland and nod to common lore

The vampires in my series are diverse. We start off with elegant, aristocratic Blood Mages, but that's only the veneer. Slowly, we unveil the rot underneath, the hunger that turns man into beast as vampires are born, and we don't stop there.

Interested? The story starts in MISTRESS OF LIES.

Cover for Mistress of Lies by K. M. Enright, The Sunday Times bestseller. Black cover, with a scowling long-haired woman in a Gothic style red and gold headdress and brocade sleeves like wings against a background of red and white roses. Her hands are tipped in gold claws and she holds a long dagger. Blurbs from Melissa Caruso — “Dark, dangerous, and entrancing” — and Sara Hashem — “A decadent story that won’t let you go.”

Messy, horrible, morally-dubious, sexy, funny, substantially-queer vampires.

I could get wayyy into the vampire lore in this book but I'll save that for a different post perhaps not on a site with character limits lolz

VAMPIRE SEASONNNN 🔥

This is Lucien from my book SILVER BLOOD! He's the heir to an elite vampire family, but he's mostly interested in keeping his extensive library organized. He's a big ol hopeless romantic nerd 🖤

An illustration of my character Lucien against a bright red background. Lucien is a vampire with pale skin and very long silver hair. He's dressed in fancy clothes and holding a goblet.

A meme about the book Blood in the Water. Blood in the Water will turn your children gay! Strong dominating woman/weak pathetic man. These are telltale signs of bisexual propaganda!

*psssst* your books deserve love too! The impostor syndrome is so real and I feel it often, especially in regards to my books not having enough meaningful rep, but it's not a competition. Your work matters as much as any other trans author's and absolutely belongs with them 🖤

I truly wish that the author dashboard on GR allowed you to see your book's page *without* showing the ratings or reviews. Like let us have an author-specific page for the book where we can make sure everything shows up correctly but don't see any reviews :')

Drawing one of my favorite scenes from Silver Blood :3

Talli 🦇SILVER BLOOD audiobook! @tallimorgan.bsky.social · 2d

Cyrus has always been the odd one out among his siblings and was often bullied by them throughout his childhood, left behind and sometimes outright scorned. The only one he's sorta close with is his sister Poppy, but they don't truly understand each other. (2/2)
