Working the holidays has its perks. no one expects me to socialize so i get to stay home with the snacks and books :)

Happy New Year!

2026 is going to be my year. Living in the UK will most definitely give me good inspo for my stories :)

I’m both nervous and excited

making world lore that makes sense is hard + making things coherent and streamlined is a lot of work especially when I’m about to box up most of my notebooks for my stories 😔 At least the notes are on my computer but there’s just something about writing in notebooks.

I’ve always loved pulling harmless heists off in the dead of night. Like sneaking two bottles of iced coffee from the outside fridge while everyone’s asleep.

I’m just glad mine doesn’t end as violently as it does for Alex and Conner in Adrift...

My family’s new kitty. the name will most likely be coconut, coco for short.

This might be a hot take but when I publish my stories I won’t care if someone pirates my work, as long as they’re reading and they like my stories that’s all I want.

The love of stories will always come first before money.

as a child the world was magical. my heart was bursting with hopes, dreams & life.

It didn’t last.

The rose coloured glasses came off. the light became darkness, as hope faded into anger.

I realized the light I looked to was never the sun. it had been the moon that storms had covered.

I talked to the stars and they held the space for which I craved. I cried to the waves and they eased the ache weighing down my soul. I wandered the roads and they left me alone but not lonely.
That’s why I love the night, for it holds the comfort the day cannot afford.

Cryptid-Verse: Ezbin’s Ghost

Here’s some official art of Cedar North. An old friend did the outline and I coloured it.

Math sucks. Especially when 2 of the word problems in the division unit aren’t even division questions and I’ve been doing it since 10 am so my brains fried meaning I don’t catch it right away and waste my time trying to divide the numbers.

Cryptid-Verse: Adrift

Official art of Conner Reuben. Took me two days in total to complete

Cedar has a vigilante persona called Fang that’s not canon.

Fang uses knives as the primary weapon, binds, uses layers and a voice modulator to make ‘his’ voice more masculine. Fang goes after the real monsters in the night.

Cedar designed the entire outfit herself by using cosplay techniques

What’s fun about Ezbin’s Ghost is that Cedar is not the centre of the world. in fact no one except her two friends give a damn about her. She is well known on the streets but it’s how anyone is well known.

Ezbin’s Ghost duology is about Cedar taking her life into her own hands and making change.

Here’s what I wrote now at 19:

Blink, Blink, blink. In and out of existence. like my mind. The fog rolls in deep, red beads onto the silver of the steel. Blink, Blink, blink; my mind comes into focus. The words don’t come. They never do anymore. Fictional books have lost their meaning.
