Forest Raven - and here was me thinking they all hung out in medieval towers.
In Welsh ravens are called 'cigfran', meaning 'meat crows'.

My debut novel Rise of the Sparrows is NINE years old this month! 🥳😱 And Book 1 is free everywhere, don't you know? 😉

storyoriginapp.com/directsaleeb...

Tropes in the comments!

A digital copy of the fantasy novel Rise of the Sparrows placed before two large cream-coloured candles, both lit. To the left is a stack of old books, their titles not visible, and an empty inkwell with a feather inside stands atop the books. To the right is a skull facing the book. A single dry pink rose lies to the left of the novel, another two to the right and before the skull, slightly see-through like they themselves are ghosts. All this is placed on a dark wood floor and before a metal-looking or black-plainted wood background.

TEMPEST, TAKE ME HOME is a cozy seafaring romantasy that leans heavily toward the romance.

🍑 Established romance
🏴‍☠️ Polyamory done right
🍑 Trans joy
🏴‍☠️ Disabled MC saves the day
🍑 Map magic
🏴‍☠️ Crew = Family

Seeing Stone of Farsight - illustrated for Swatches Academy's fantasy RPG item challenge.

[ #art #fantasyart #propart #emidraws ]
Illustration from first person view, showing a hand holding up an opalescent stone with a hole in the center. The stone has brass filigree, and through the hole is a view of a mountain sheep. The background is a mountainous landscape. There are slight magical effects showing that the view through the stone is a zoomed in view of the background.

TEMPEST, TAKE ME HOME is now on itch! It's itchy? Stop it, Charlie.

You can choose what you pay because, unlike these characters, I would be a terrible treasure hunter 🙃

We can't wait for you to join the crew.

Stuck at work daydreaming about how Teddy would just curl up in a stack of books until Maddock found him…Think curling up in a stack of tile would get me fired? 👀

Black lesbian vampire book rec of the day.

A former slave becomes a vampire and lives a wild, beautiful life for 200 years, building community and falling in love. As the world changes, she does what she can for her people.

An incredible work of art.

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

I just keep coming back to the fact that supply chain issues are going to create even more work for women.

Who is more likely to know how to make and mend clothes? Cook from scratch? Who is going to have to stay home to take care of ill or disabled family members?

I've encountered a few people arguing that tariffs are good, actually, because they will force us to consume less and while I think our consumer culture is problematic in many ways, I don't think things such as 'food' and 'medical supplies' fall under the category of unnecessary purchases.

It hasn't been *that* long since I wrote this book, but editing it now I've no idea what happens 😅 My main character was just waiting for a client, and I forgot it's actually [redacted] so we're both shocked 😆

ONE MORE WEEK!!!

To celebrate A BALLAD FOR SLAYERS & MONSTERS making its way into the world next week, I’d like to show you this absolutely stunning art of Kas and Claudia by @finnfrei.bsky.social
An illustration of Kas and Claudia from A Ballad for Slayers & Monsters by Rita A. Rubin. Kas is the woman with short red hair and she is lifting up Claudia, a woman with long white hair. They’re smiling lovingly at each other while surrounded by purple flowers. The background is of a starry night sky

I'm thrilled that my "Swan Warrior" was accepted into the Infected by Art artbook vol. 13 🎉😍
Congratulations to everyone else too!

I want to draw more women in armor ✨
A young woman in 15th century inspired black plate armor, looking wistfully and holding a longsword that has a magical golden light emanating from it. Behind her is a rich colorful tapestry with late Medieval motifs that's interwoven with gold thread.

Hi #PortfolioDay ! ✨

I'm Nika, an illustrator based in the Netherlands, and I paint stylized fantasy characters that fit into imaginary worlds. I enjoy working with strong color identity, and I love implementing hints of storytelling into my work!

An illustration of a messy desk with many messy, crumpled up and torn papers. The illustration zooms in on a golden pendant, which is open and has an image of Stede Bonnet from OFMD. The other side of the pendant interior says "To Edward, S.B." There's also ink, ink stains and a quill, as well as what appears to be an old letter, and an attempt at a response starting with an awkwardly written "Dear Stede".
