"Sometimes there came a sensation as if a hand was drawn softly along my cheek and neck. Sometimes it was as if warm lips kissed me, and longer and longer and more lovingly as they reached my throat, but there the caress fixed itself"

Someone I don't know tried to *video call me through Gmail*.
I'm sorry Sheryl, but I don't pick up calls from random numbers anyway and you want me to answer a *video* call from a stranger?! Not in this multiverse timeline.

I'd also recommend playing around with the settings of whatever brush you like (tap twice on the brush to bring up the settings). Even if you stick with default settings, it's fun to play around with it and see what options you have

For sketching I use the 6b pencil one from the classic pre-recent update library.
For inking my fave is the smooth natural nib from this set www.truegrittexturesupply.com/products/the... but before I got that one it was the technical pen from the Procreate inking brush library ☺️

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

It's jacket weather somewhere ✨

I miss painting jackets and rocking a cool painted jacket. Lucky for me I have cool photos of my cool jackets 😌

A photo of a black leather jacket laid flat with Dungeon Master painted in pale yellow and blue on the back with a skull with antlers and dice. A lit candle, leather journal and crochet fabric is placed around the jacket.

A pale blue jacket is laid flat with Roll of Cool painted in white on the back in ornate vintage style lettering. Dice, old books, string lights and crochet lace placed around it.

A beige jacket is laid flat with vinyl records placed on and around it. Chaotic Average text is painted on the back of the jacket in white and orange with a d20 illustration in the centre.

Oh you're good, I definitely read it as a 'huh so they're set in their ways for sure' thing!

As someone who hasn't submitted anything for ENNIEs, it was also a surprise that you submitted a product for the awards in general and not for a specific category?
Thanks for writing these! I love the nitty gritty of behind the scenes stuff
