Text image titled "Demon King's Gardener". Text body reads: “I was a gardener before, so I recognized the plants here weren’t human ones,” the man went on, “As I was starving, I saw one bush bearing fruit, and so I approached it and asked for one.” “You asked a bush for fruit,” Jurao interrupted. The human nodded, “I always heard demon plants were sentient, so I thought it was only polite to ask.” “Even though you were starving,” Jurao said. The human frowned, “It was hardly the plant’s fault I was starving.” Text image titled "Demon King's Gardener". Text body reads: “You have to come in,” Jurao said gently. Braelin grimaced, “I do?” “You do,” Jurao confirmed. Braelin sighed, then peeled himself off the wall. Jurao stepped back, giving him room. Braelin poked his head into the room again, then bit his lip and looked at the floor. “Would you all look away,” Jurao said, waving a hand at them all. Text image titled "Demon King's Gardener". Text Body reads: “He certainly is plain enough,” Feyl agreed, studying the now awake human. Braelin didn’t seem to take offense to this, staring back openly. “I heard you were shy,” the head valet laughed, “Am I just that beautiful?” “You are pretty,” Braelin replied, looking away absently, “But it only bothers me when a lot of people are looking at me, not one or two.” Feyl didn’t seem to know how to reply to that statement. Text imaged titled "Demon King's Gardener". text body reads: They cleared their throat, cheeks darkening again as they asked, “Have you really been hiding in the gardens for ten years…?” “I have, probably,” Braelin replied. “Then… you’ve… seen me here before…?” they asked, voice kicking up an octave as they asked. The human nodded, “Your voices have gotten a lot better.” Gaele looked like they wanted to hide behind the gazebo railing again.

Get yourself someone who makes the world soft like how Raum makes Asher feel, even though Asher is going through a time in this novel. Another week, another snippet!

Errant Wings releases April 22nd!

Snippet graphic from Errant Wings, releasing April 22nd. The background is a photo of an alley street where a tree with golden autumn leaves covers the sky. There is also an illustration of Asher and Raum embracing with big smiles. The snippet in the center reads: "Asher rested his eyes and happily breathed the bed in. It felt like a hug in and of itself. He would have drifted off too, if Raum hadn’t bent over and peppered a dozen kisses along his jaw, sending a pleasurable tingle over him." At the bottom is a URL for where to order Errant Wings. It is: "books.earlronove.com/errantwings". Trope map for Errant Wings, on sale April 22nd. The background is a photo of an alley street where a tree with golden autumn leaves covers the sky. In the center is Errant Wings's cover, featuring Asher with his angel wings against a blue sky as he kneels on the corner of a building, spray paint can in hand. Around the cover and pointing toward it are the tropes. They are: gay disaster punk, coming of age set in a fictional 90's, staying true to yourself, graffiti art as catharsis, angel & devil wings, relationships that need mending, punching assholes, and more fire symbolism than you thought you needed. Below the cover is where to pre-order your copy and it is: "books.earlronove.com/errantwings"

A snippet from Curse of the Crowned: Chapter 2 - Beginnings...

Halla the monster hunter sets eyes on her newest prey for the first time.

#trsbwriting #originalstory #writingsnippet #curseofthecrowned #monsterromance #enemiestolovers
The vampire’s eyes glowed like cold stars in an otherwise empty night. She was too far away to make them out in detail, but they seemed to shift in colour occasionally, from silver to lilac and back again. Halla had mentally prepared herself for the inevitability that he was beautiful. The primer had stated such in a very academic, clinical way, as beauty was a trait of all the Fey. So it was easy for her to dismiss the fluttering in her chest and the mild heat that was summoned to her cheeks at laying her eyes on him. It was definitely him. There was no mistaking him. ‘Eldarin.’

I grinned at Dante in the rearview mirror. “Question, are you really volunteering because you want to join up, or just for the access to a lot of nice, muscled men?” Dante grinned back. “There are many benefits to being a firefighter.”

» “You’re looking a bit pale.”
“You scared me to death.”
Kyle giggled. “That’s my specialty.” «

felt inspired to finally draw Kyle again; he's one of my fave characters, the incarnation of a bisexual mess and has a big fat crush on a certain someone--

digital headshot of my OC Kyle; He's a 19yo white man with green and red splitdye hair, piercing blue eyes and eyebrows dyed green and red as well, just mirrored to the hair. He's wearing a silver septumb, silver snake-bites as well as silver cheek piercings and a big black plug in his ear. also you can see some leaves tattooed on his neck

[Pixel art image set on a black screen, with story text below it] A nondescript house next to a back road surrounded by some evergreen trees, the bright night sky lighting up the road and red wood paneling and shingles of the roof. The text at the bottom reads. “He walked, one heavy foot in front of the other, through the quiet whisper of the rainfall. The scattered moonlight gleamed off every trembling leaf, and the serenity of it all helped him to forget. NEARLY forget. But he was finally here. And it was time to make THEM remeber.”

“Varlen loved his father. More than Asrim loved him.” You take another drink. You neither know nor care how strong the alcohol is. Maybe it will burn the memories of Varlen from your mind.

Finally making some headway on my WIPs again! I'm finding that I like writing mildly-drunken banter.

Transcript: "That's not-" He choked on his words, falling out of step with her before shuffling back. Sputtering, he said, "That liquid death you chugged must've gone straight to your brain." It had for him at least, because his thoughts wavered like rippling water as he fought to keep his composure. Rin laughed, the faint discomfort of her comment fading beneath her buzz. "That's sorta the point of drinking, isn't it?" His shoulders hiked up as he jammed his hands further into his pockets, though he was already losing hold of his embarrassment. "So then what's the point of this walk?" "Hmmm… Guess that depends. I'm nothing if not a gracious host, so the least I can do is offer my guest a say in the matter." Seiji grinned at her mock seriousness. "You're fucking weird, y'know that?" That strange something about her snaked its way past his walls again and slithered right into his chest. He found he rather liked it there, curled up within the warmth of alcohol and his empty heart.

used the word stars, an essential thing for this book to work.

And, in weakened moments, when defenses fall and the spark of happiness stutters and dies, it calls for tears. Big, fat drops that course down reddened cheeks until I’m dried out, leaving nothing behind but a deep, angry pulse of want. A want to step into nothing. For the darkest void to pull and for the stars to reach into my soul, burying their beauty there. I want to walk among the stars.

An incomplete column stood amid the ruins, rising just above her height. It’s green marble glinted as the light from her lantern hit it. The worn and eroded edges offered only a glimmer of its former grandeur.

A battle of the snark between my two MCs - one of many.

It’s safe to say they don’t like each other at this stage. 😏
