In a far future garden world, young Gwhar inherits a sacred Rilk and descends through the Deep to keep “the One” alive. Each step draws him closer to the truth, and to the voice inside his Rilk that may be the last light in the dark.

In a world where more and more people just take the easy route, be PROUD of yourself for taking the hard route. Be proud of the mess, the struggle, the frustration, the blood and tears, getting back up again. You're not the stupid one here.

that moment when you’re sitting down and slightly adjusting the make up of the novel you’ve been picking away at for years only to realize that there’s enough to fill an entire new part

Do you like dark fantasy?
Did you like Tales of Earthsea?
Small slow burning stories that eventually overrun to cosmic changes?
What about lots of lore and connections waiting to be found?
You will like my writing, give it a read and let me know what you think. It's the only way I can get better

Something I wrote because I had such a vision in my head I couldn’t rest until it was on paper.
A Vulpine wakes on the shores of a strange land. He does not know who he is or where he’s from. But he finds another clinging to life that offers him his first clue.

Just some morning inspiration thoughts as I listen to Beethoven this morning!
Where does your inspiration come from? Do you think it's the beginning of the process or part of it?
I'd love to hear what your biggest inspirations are!

I LOVE old 60s-80s fantasy book covers. They can be absolutely insane in the best way. I've started trying to find the best ones whenever I am in a book store.

Just a random rough animation I did the other day of my design of Allan from Smiling Friends! 🧀
I've done animation off and on just for fun as a hobby within the last 20 years! (I made my first flipbook in 2004!) I like to practice with doing these short clips to try and improve more at it! :D

Finally beat Ghost of Yotei
Going at it on lethal was not the greatest decision but I got through the whole game without changing it once (including Takezo the Unrivaled)
