The first snow ❄️
It's the first snow. The butterflies are outside and building a butterfly-snowman (wearing a carrot nose and cozy scarf). The full moon shines on them. Alien looking flowers are giving them warm light. This way spending time outside it more enjoyable! https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-01122021-899521546

Good heavens this cover

There is a story of a widow woman & her daughters, Snow White & Rose Red, the most darling little girls who had ever lived.

This is not—quite—that story.

BONE & BLOOD is out in March 2026! #booksky #preorders #fairytales #retoldfairytales #fantasy

www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXFPLQW...
The staggeringly fabulous cover for CE Murphy's upcoming BONE & BLOOD, a retelling of "Snow White, Rose Red" features two women standing back to back: one is garbed all in blood red, with dark red hair and a black mask; the other wears flowing white, with wheat-pale hair and a glittering mask. Cover art & design by Ravven.

"A wyvern, director. It has two legs, two wings, whereas a-"

"Which flies, breathes fire, and is intelligent?"

"About as intelligent as a border collie."

"So, intelligent. Why?"

"You asked us to invent measures to take down small drones."

If I found out you asked an LLM anything about me or made a decision related to me using it at all, I will not be one of your loved ones again until you fix some things about yourself.

A thousand times brighter than a typical nova, a kilonova occurs when two neutron stars, or a neutron star and a black hole, collide.

Annette is just like me fr.
Comic Part 1/4 - a group of witches is huddled around a teacher showing them how to collect mandrake. The teacher pulls one out, explaining that mandrakes scream and cry when you pull them for their comfortable soil bed, causing a student called Annette to react by saying "it's just like me for real." The teacher then tells Annette to stop relating to potion ingredients. Comic Part 2/4 - a group of witches is huddled around a teacher showing them how to collect mandrake.

It's never too late to learn something new.
It's never too late to read dusty books of dark magic.
It's never too late to weave a cloak of moss, feathers, and thorns and become the horror that haunts the forest north of town.

I prefer telling this story in a video rather than typing it out but here's some holiday advice for trans & queer folx in video form.

(No, it won't work for everyone. Only use it if you feel safe doing so. Yes, I'm still proud of my daughter for doing this. She was 17 at the time.)

“Help me name this creature”

This little emerald green Llamhigyn Y Dŵr needs a name and I’d love to hear your best creative / scientific names. What would you call this beastie if you discovered it? The best names will accompany all the printed artworks with credit of course 🙂

Big Dreams
A little red dragon (Ember, from the book "The Bakery Dragon" by Devin Elle Kurtz) is seen from above in this digital painting. He is sitting on cobblestones, which are wet with puddles after a rainstorm. He gazes up at the much larger dragons in the sky above him. They have dropped some gold coins they carry.

Nature Spirit Oracle: how it started & how it's going.

Lol at the contrast between the first card & the most recent card.
'Potential' for my oracle deck. A dryad that looks very much like a tree, holding a magnolia in front of a twilight sky, with a hopeful expression. Abstracted airy lines swoop upwards, representing potential. Made with colored pencil, watercolor, and a little white gouache. 'Resilience' for my oracle deck. Phoenix harpy rising from the flames, with curling black smoke behind her. She flies onward with a resolute expression.

cover of THE SHAPE OF MONSTERS, book 2 in the Moon Heresies Trilogy, by Tessa Gratton against a dark teal background with stars and threads of magic. Cover depicts a brown skinned young man in a sleeveless red-brown robe pulling apart threads of magic with his bare hands. His left eye is golden and possibly connected to the magical threads. Beneath him is a magical bronze city-scape, and in the gray-brown sky a single bright blue star falls.
