I'm a bit behind on my reading atm, so I wanted some light-hearted, fun, and relatively short reads. I'm hoping that these will fit the bill!

Nadine J Cohen's Everyone and Everything is Spectacular

Everyone and Everything by Nadine J. Cohen is a stunning novel that will grip your heartstring and tug every emotion out of you. There are so many things to say about this and yet I don’t think I ill be able to fully articulate the brilliance that is this book. One thing I absolutely love is fractured timelines in stories, especially in personal journeys and stories involving trauma and mental…

an audio narration/excerpt from an unreleased chapter, re: emily's changes to the timeline in dh2. i guess this is a behind the scenes???

reading aloud is one of my fav editing tricks. v minor spoilers for unreleased chapter of the monster in the hull

#dishonored #dishonored 2 #billie/emily #the monster in the hull #dishonored fic #read by author #woe. aussie accent be upon ye #no idea if i ended up fixing the volume. its my first day using audacity decided it was time to pick up a new skill #as an editing technique i only listen back if its like. a mouthfeel issue im having trouble putting my finger on #but i do try and have fun with it - for me its easy to wrack up high word counts but editing can become extremely tedious #so forcing myself to fuckin READ it. helps a lot? you know?#a post for the two people that might want this #ah well only postin' for the real ones <3

Whenever I’m reading fanfiction I can never hear the word mate without hearing “G’day mate how you been?” In my grandfathers voice, it could be omegaverse it could be soulmates, no matter what I can’t read it without hearing “G’day mate”

It’s the Australian curse

srry I got a little sidetracked & am now disproportionately mad at a fic I’m reading bc someone wrote an Australian character who can’t swim but it’s literally taught in school here…

#No hate to the author but bestie she would NOT fucking say that…#Like I get a lot of Aussies might not be able to swim #but this character is from MELBOURNE which is like TWO SECONDS AWAY from the ocean #And it’s LITERALLY IN THE SCHOOL CURRICULUM #Anyways #the pain of being a nitpicking bitch…

*Stitched Me* by Bron Rauk-Mitchell [text + image versions]

he loved only these specific parts of me,

and hated everything else about me, so,

I cut away the unloved parts,

and discarded them in the trash;

stitching together everything else that remained …

but this Frankenstein’s monster no longer appealed to him, so,

he threw me in the trash, with those unloved parts,

and went off in search of other parts to love.

Alfred Burke strikes a husbandly pose as concerned neighbour Mr. Barnes in The Man Upstairs (1958)

#fave spotting #alfred burke #the man upstairs #1958 #british cinema #public eye #character actors #the film is about Richard Attenborough as a tenant of a boarding house who has a breakdown and the reactions #of the other tenants (and authorities etc) to the situation. alas‚ of all the tenants‚ Alfie is the only one out of the house at the time #and returns (and thus enters the film) only at about the halfway point. this means that whilst the others have all had rather nice little #characterisations set up and been introduced to the viewer‚ Mr Barnes ends up having little personality beyond 'husband of Mrs Barnes'#Mrs B being one of the main supporting roles. needless to say Alfie attacks the role regardless and manages to bring out some subtle shades #of indignation at injustice (and even a hint of socialist conscience) to a fairly underwritten part. also of note‚ Mrs B is played by noted #Australian star Dorothy Alison‚ so Alf finds himself doing a modest little attempt at an aussie accent... I'll be honest i didn't even #notice the first few times he spoke‚ but it come out a little more when he's heated (a nice touch of realism actually)

Another one bites the dust!

So, last week my first TCC premade cover sold to a gorgeous woman who left me the most amazing 5 star review!

"The seller was awesome. Super fast and communicative and took extra effort to make sure the cover was 100% what I wanted. The level of pride in her craftsmanship is superb. Would HIGHLY recommend. :)"

Now, another one bits the dust ha.

Apparently keeping to purple-aligned tones may be key here so in light of that I also introduce the latest premade design that (don't worry) is still available!!!

Grab it now before it also bites it ;)

(ALSO TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO GRAB 35% OFF !!!! :D )

One of the fun things I’ve gotten the opportunity to do over the last year and a half is this series of book covers for author Matthew J. Barbeler’s LitRPG series Edge Force. The books are—in image order—Bleeding Edge, Claws of the Dragon, and Bury the Hatchet. They’re a fun read, and available through Amazon if you’re interested!

These are a mix of digital painting over pencil drawings and ink washes. I love doing book covers, especially in the sci-fi and fantasy genres. It’s all I’ve ever wanted to do since I was a wee one, so if you know an author needing some colorful art, send ‘em my way! Much love, everyone.

Me watching Australia Border Force Security like: damn that was an entire violation of human rights and a pretty good insight into the extremely questionable pedestal upon which Australian authorities have been legislatively placed upon

#my fave was that one episode where they brought out A4 printouts of messages on this lady's phone #like whole ass A4 printouts of her iPhone messages right? lmao #and they could do that because authorities in Australia have the legally enshrined right to confiscate your phone #or any other device #and peruse it for 'evidence'#anyway that was glossed over because this lady had committed the horrific crime of working at a chinese takeaway on her vacation visa #(and probably being underpaid for it too)#so she was arrested and banned from Australia for three years #aussie aussie aussie tho amirite?

YouTube channels that helped me grow as an author

If you’re like me - a starving artist - then paying for classes and tuition can be difficult. I’d prefer to save my money for editing and the front cover design, so it is with thanks to the following who’ve helped me grow exponentially as an author.

Caveat: needless to say, I am in no way affiliated with these people overseas. I’ve never met them/spoken to them, but I felt I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention their channels. I always believe in paying it forward. ENJOY!

https://www.youtube.com/c/JennaMoreci - if you love sass, savagery and sarcasm, this is the channel for you. Jenna’s dark fantasy books have won multiple awards, and she has a non-fiction book coming out soon. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed harder with another BookTuber.

https://www.youtube.com/c/NataliaLeigh - an indie author who also runs her own business helping authors - Enchanted Ink. I love Natalia’s warm energy, and she dishes up some pretty neat tips.

https://www.youtube.com/c/AbbieEmmons - an indie author who delves into the science behind storytelling. There’s some truly fascinating stuff here.

https://www.youtube.com/c/AlexaDonne - a traditionally published YA author who loves dishing out tough love. Love her inspiration.

That’s all from me today - until next time ...
