My two series are very different from each other.

Sigils is cheekier and my passion project where I shed more of who I am. I fade to black in it, but I'm otherwise unafraid to be sexual in it.

Lamia, no sex or romance at all. It's character driven without it, getting through the grim universe.

#Caulktober Days 8 & 9

The most powerful and important cock owner in my books is Alderius Gladium, one of only 12 human clerics. Now, I've not written about Thalia (his first real girlfriend and the MC) giving him a blowjob, but that is absolutely something she would do.

#OctoberWorldbuilders Day 9

Pocks is short for pocket bocks. In Sigils of Blight (Book 2), I use it to show a certain side of Malakos and how bored everyone is cramped in a ship cabin they cant leave. It's not important beyond that.

October Worldbuilders Day 9
Board games in your books world?

Snippet from Sigils of Blight (Book 2):

Cards were not the most exciting way to pass time after only four games. A gameboard was delivered to the room. Malakos surprised both cousins with how calculated he could be in terms of strategy.

The game was called ‘pocks’, an abbreviation of pocket rocks. The goal was simple; collect all your opponent’s ‘rocks’ without gaining too many, otherwise resources would run out to maintain them.

Before the cousins knew it, they had lost all their glass marbles, but Malakos only had ten of his own on his side. The game started becoming less fun when Calliope and Thalia could not beat Malakos, even working together.

Depends on my mood. I love all strange creatures, but cryptids top the list. Uh... Ever heard of the boqs (pronounced box)?

He's like Bigfoot, but his long dick is rolled up in his arms and he hits trees with it.

Acrobatics are sports of a kind. Thalia was raised in a circus, so she's been working out longer than an someone trains in a paladin order.

In book 1, her current and popular act is a high flying, fabricated beast taming show.

Fellow autists, I've never answered this one question correctly.

On a scale of 1-10, how much does it hurt? Smiley faces for reference.

🤩😀🙂😐😑🙁😟😥😭☠️

I think doctors are all taught to interpret it differently too.
