I wanted to draw the Menke family, but I had no specific ideas so have some doodles instead!

To clarify more, if it wasn't clear already;

Christopher Menke - BLU Engineer

Stephen Menke - BLU Engineer

Carl Clover - BLU Soldier

Evan Croft - RED Demoman

Stephen and Chris are twins (Chris is also trans, FTM)

Chris and Carl are a couple

Stephen and Evan are a couple

Evan and Carl are bff

How where and when really depend on the story/universe, but in the very original Evan and Stephen got together after the war was over, and before the Robowar started (Mann vs Machine)

A quick little sketch of these guys in ICARUS, I still have yet to design them, but their looks are pretty much the same (Evan and Carl have a little different haircuts, tho)

Introduction

Hello! I'm Mythie, a fantasy writer looking to share some of the things I've been working on recently. But first, a little more information about me as a person:

Pronouns: She/They

Hobbies: Reading, Writing, Drawing, D&D

Genres: Fantasy, Adventure, Romance

Current Projects: The Softest of Petals (TSOP), Undying (UD), The Curse of Athena (TCoA), The Lady by the Sea (TLbtS), and more.

Other Projects: Vampire & Nun (VAN), Greek Myth Game (GMG)

While this account is dedicated to TSOP, I'll also answer any questions you may have about my other stories! Feel free to send asks, comment, message me, and so on! I'd love to create a little community on here based around these stories and a shared love of reading and writing.

WIP / Writing stuff below the cut.

My Writing

In general, I write a lot about:

Fantasy

Sometimes Romance

Royalty

Assassins

Magic

Probably way too much worldbuilding (TSOP has a conlang, an original board game, and two songs in the conlang)

Enemies to Lovers

Mental Health! Mainly anxiety and PTSD

Immortals of all kinds (fae, deities, etc)

Myth-inspired stories

LGBTQ Representation (often main characters; sometimes just casual background mentions)

I've been told my writing is comparable to: Throne of Glass, The Cruel Prince, Lord of the Rings, An Enchantment of Ravens

Story Breakdowns

This will be more of a summary of my stories I guess. If you want to know anything that isn't mentioned here, feel free to send me an ask or something! :D

This is a genuine question that I’d like as many people to weigh in on as possible, especially if you’re a fan of ANY facet of my work. So if you’re able to/willing, please reblog! :)

Considering that Castel will be the ONLY pov character for Ailurocide’s canon books, sans bonus scenes or epilogues/prologues:

Udělal jsem knížku!! A ještě k tomu s mojí malou nebinární postavičkou!

Celý proces trval tak přes půl roku, ale konečně to je hotové. Neumím vůbec psát a nejspíš tam bude milión hrubek, takže mi můžete říct, pokud tam bude něco až příliš otřesného, abych to mohl spravit. Příběh by jste měli pochopit i bez textu.

Je to celé zasazené ve světě, na kterém pracuji již nějakou dobu. Jsou tam jak novodobé kreatury tak i věci folklórní. Prostě tam do těch lesů strkám co chci.

Tohle je jen taková ochutnávka a vůbec to nezahrnuje hlavní děj příběhu, který mám v hlavě (ani tam nejsou všechny hlavní postavy), ale doufám že se i k němu v budoucnu dostanu.

Zatím to mám vše zapsáno pod pracovním názvem 'O.CH.B.', to se možná však ještě změní a finální název bude jiný.

Tohle je zatím největší projekt, který jsem kdy dokončil. Po té dlouhé době mi to přijde až bizarní, že to je opravdu hotové.

Není to dokonalé. Možná to ani není dobré.

Ale já jsem na sebe pyšný. Jsem na sebe pyšný a hrdý.

Do reblogu přidám i ilustrace bez textu, protože tady se mi to nevleze.

Day 5 of trying to get you invested in my original book "Bound By Name" by posting short character intros!

"Spring", one of the cooks in the Palace kitchens and also the resident mother figure. A chubby satyr woman who always has a hug and a plate of delicious cupcakes for anyone who's struggling just a bit too much that day.

Random notes: Her name might be revealed in the book but honestly I dunno, maybe not. Her apron is also constantly covered with flour as she specializes in baking. The magic she has is almost entirely fire related, and while it could be used for destruction, it's mostly used to make sure no food gets burnt

#id say shes one of my favorite characters #and it is true #however everyone is one of my favorite characters #i love em all sm #but here she is!#mother figure #heheh #original books #original worlds #original book #original character #character intro #character info #fae #fae folk #Bound By Name #BBN #BBN daily

The Illustrated Atlas Of Wonder-Evoking Animals

My graduation project is almost finished. Now I have to make the book irl instead of just a 3D mockup. (Which is gonna be the better part!)

I try not to worry about the fact, that we'll have to present it in front of all the teachers and the students that happen to pass by. At least I get to nerd out about animals and I can also talk about how the project went. :D We'll see how that goes.

I don't think we told you but @alxina and @merinnan have officially started our book!

As in just started, just prologue and a bit of first chapter done!

No idea how I will write a book without the feedback that I'm used to getting during writing when I post fics.

~*~*~ Christopher Menke is my TF2 BLU Engineer OCs, and be's become kind of a self insert of sorts by now. Here is my TF2 Chris and ICARUS Chris talking about me. I wanted to make this as sort of a reminder for myself, draw these two versions together, and possibly let other artists know that it is ok if you don't draw your OCs all the time. It is okay that you don't have time, motivation etc to make content about them. They won't disappear. If your OCs are as important to you as they are for me, don't beat yourself up about not being able to make content about them as often as you'd want to. Sometimes life is like that. Let's be more forgiving to ourselves. ~*~*~

12 years ago (2012) I started writing and drawing about my TF2 OCs, and many years I wanted to do something big with them. I envied the people who had a big fan base on their TF2 content, comics and stuff, and I wanted that too. I never had it, but I've had small fan bases on other fan content. And I've always wanted to write an original story, but I never had a good enough idea for it.

After deciding I didn't want to, or need to, share my original stories/writings about my TF2 OCs, I figured I could do something else with them, something that's not TF2. And here we are. ICARUS is on the works, and all the OCs I use in it are my TF2 OCs.

*~*~*

If you are interested in my fanfictions, I can be found from AO3.

I also have a TF2 short story collection right here - I have gotten inspirations and ideas for ICARUS from my short stories as well!

Hello everyone, and welcome to the blog that is here to hopefully keep me motivated to write.

Those of you who are already following me likely came from AO3. So you all are a bit aware of the concept for this book. However, there are going to be many changes to the original story, as I'm sure you all guessed. I'm happy to answer any questions, excited even! I hope to share art, progress work, and more here while I work on this.

In the meantime, here is the basic jist. This story is an adult dark romance novel, focused on a jaded lich and a human woman. This story is heavily themed around reincarnation, Celtic folklore and Arthurian legends. Previously the story was very loosely based on a Japanese demon from myth, but since I'm rewriting this with more knowledge behind my work, I'm revisiting my roots.

The biggest difference from the original story as some of you know it, is that the main character is now an adult, bisexual woman. As a bisexual woman myself, there will be some queer tones in this story, but I wanted to write a character I could fully understand as I do myself. Hope that makes sense.

Eldritch horror, psychological horror, monster fucking, and more will come up in this story. I'm likely missing some things here but I'm sure I'll remember and share as I go. My next step is to make some character sheets for at LEAST the two main characters if not others.

Please feel free to ask me any questions!

DON’T THINK I TALKED ABOUT IT HERE BUT HERE WE ARE!!

*khm khm* I WROTE A BOOK! AND IT GOT PUBLISHED!

It’s about a boy, who became a child of the Goddess of the Moon. The book tells us about him finding out more about humans and gods, and dealing with his family. It’s not really a book for kids, although it really looks like it ahah.

Sadly, right now it is only available for people in Austria and Germany and there is no digital version (I will talk about it with the publishers, but I think it will only be available in November? I’m not sure.)

You can buy it here:

#writers on tumblr #writer #author #original book #published book #A boy with feathers #YOU WANT A FUNNY FACT?? THIS IS BOOK IS BASED ON MY MINECRAFT CHARACTERS BACKSTORY AHXHZHAHA #THIS IS ALSO KINDA SAD BECAUSE I HAD A WHOLE FANTASY BOOK READY TO GO BUT IT WAS TOO BIG #AND THIS BOOK WAS ORIGINALLY FOR A COMPETITION SO THERE WERE SOME RULES HOW MUCH I CAN WRITE AND IT SUCKS #original character

No Rest For The Innocent.

" Falling asleep usually leads into dreaming or darkness, and thats held close as relief. Calming, safe, and wanted...

Though, for some, when they slip into sleep?

It's not the same peace and relaxation.

For some, it's a reenactment.

A WarZone for others.

Never getting to feel the grip of sleep, instead only waking into alternative realities. Replaying the familiar scrips of their own stories, beloved creativity and creation. Turning sour as they're forced to live it's story out at night.

Writing, recording, all expressions leading into those hellish nights.

Leaving,

No Rest For The Innocent. "

Colored Comas. Prequel, Completed.

Upwards Bound. Early Story, WIP.

WarZone.

No Rest For The Innocent.

After Hours.

HellBent.

[ TBC ]

While this is not the main or core part of the story, I feel the need to address it before continuing on:

This story covers incredibly dark topics, the storylines and characters are reflections and/or projections of the people writing the story. We do not support nor glorify any dark topics such as abuse, child experiments, or forms of extreme violence and harm. It's all in the name of fiction, or things that the authors are projecting from our own bad experiences.

This story is not aimed for those under 15 years of age, it includes dark and serious topics, possible adult content, and themes of harm. Be careful and take care of yourself, please.

The authors of this story are all 18 and older, despite the story not being focused on such themes mentioned above, they do appear within the text at times. Thank you.
