"There must be something he wants. And whatever it is, by God, I'll find it and make a collar and chain of it with 'Douglas' in fine Gothic letters on the neck."

George Douglas has some A+ ideas in Game of Kings, no notes.

I will always show up for an sorceress with eldritch and unspeakable powers and The Black Sun trilogy by Jo Spurrier is just wall to wall Sierra kicking ass. Love that for her.

#jo spurrier #black sun trilogy #winter be my shield #fanart #fun fact i apparently find it really hard to draw people in heavy heavy winter clothes because it makes the proportions look all weird

pro tip, cover up something hard to draw (hands) with something easy to draw (anatomical heart)

Hey, I loved The Last Binding trilogy, and your art is beautiful. Do you have any recs of similar (as in queer, not necessarily historical or magic) writing, that you have enjoyed?

Thank you @vmcgmidlifecrisis!

As for queer recommendations...I read a lot! And a lot of what I read has queer characters, but somehow I always immediately blank out when doing recommendations. So here's some that I either JUST read or have been rotating in my brain lately.

I've been re-reading Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner and it's sequels and prequels and it's been a great time! Almost everyone in the stories is queer and also probably involved in a murder/learning to murder/doing advanced mathematics.

I read Long Time Dead by Samara Breger in the fall and it's still constantly on my mind. It is a sapphic gothic vampire romance that is very very fun and I really appreciated the characterizations and relationships, even outside of the main couple. Poppy Cavendish is a delight and her biggest regret is that she can't eat human food anymore when she becomes a vampire.

For contemporary queer romance, I read the Carlisle duology which is Truth and Measure and Above All Things by Roslyn Sinclair in August and was delighted the entire time. It is an adapted Devil Wears Prada fic, but I think it stands really well on its own! It is also super hot! I normally hate romance novels where a character is pregnant and yet?? AND YET?? I loved this one.

They should let you keep your artwork in the spaghetti phase. Since it’s your favorite

While spaghetti phase is my favorite...to stay in spaghetti phase would mean never having the joy of "Finished" where you get all the endorphins from having Accomplished A Task, so alas, I must push forward.
