Canvas of Scars is a collection of dark poetry, short prose, and art by a trans masc author with themes of PTSD, psychosis, and other dark subjects. It's my first art/poetry collection, and it's my own story of what I survived and the art that helped me cope 🖤 #transpoetry 🌈📚 ♿♾️📚

Please watch this and know what is happening to trans people right now in the US, if you're an ally. Do not ignore it, do not bury your head in the sand, do not give up on us. To do so is deadly. To ignore it is to quietly accept it.

Please consider voting for my book 🥰
Yay 🥰🥰
Now I don't tend to have much hope for contests that need votes as surely there are other books with more fans, but still: LET'S GIVE IT A TRY💃
Please, if you've read My Lord & think it deserves a vote in any of these categories… Help me stand a chance 🥺💜

A much-needed 'lol' moment from tonight's editing session. Ludoviko, 'Mr. Prim and Proper,' is feeling sexy things and it's consuming his mind the more he fights it 😆 #AmWriting

Me, editing: Everyone is coming in and out of doors, making noise, and talking in the hall.

Me, not editing: Dead silence.

Me, back to editing: Everyone is talking and making noise and leaving their apartments again.

I'm so annoyed help 🥲 People around here need to get hobbies or something.

Oh boy. This word is asking for some spice 😆
From Ludoviko, 'position' is the closest word. Warning for mild NSFW.

I did not expect this dark fantasy romance to be healing, but it somehow ended up being that way. The final poem that ends it is very telling. (I interspersed poetry throughout the story to give it a musical feel)

I'm concerned I haven't heard from my parents since Thanksgiving. I couldn't go because of chronic illness flares, and mom said she understood. It's a couple days to Christmas and I've heard nothing about an invitation or plans. Nothing at all otherwise either.

I also did something with this story that I never do because I'm always too impatient. I haven't read back through any of it. Usually I start at the beginning and read through it while writing, but nope. I just kept going. I remembered everything, every detail. That's how you know it's a good one.
I've got one more chapter to write and my gothic fantasy romance is done. That'll happen tomorrow. I went from thinking, 'I don't/can't write romance' to writing one of my favorite books I've ever worked on. I was able to take a villain I created years ago and finally give him the story he deserved.

Oh my god 😆 My cat just sat and stared at me with a literal 🥺 face. Because how dare I starve him, he ate 30 minutes ago and that is SO long to have to wait.

I'm honestly shocked that a cat litter brand put BORAX of all things in their cat litter. I didn't even realize it until after I'd filled both boxes. I spent my laundry money buying new litter & a scoop to get it all out. I cannot afford a vet bill. Why would you put Borax in CAT LITTER???

It is almost 2 in the morning and my arms hurt from writing all day, but I was deep in the hyperfixation until eye exhaustion made me stop 😭 The story started taking on a mind of its own and it tore my heart out and stomped on it. Now I gotta go to bed with that 😭
