Another book cover I was happy to draw for J.E. Ridge!
#mmart #bookcover #bookishhart #coverart #MMromace #BLart

Cover of "The Mage and his stolen prince" by J.E. Ridge

A young man in black clothes and long silver hair sits on a stone ruin. Another man with bright red hair sits near his feet and leans his head towards the blond man's knee.
They both hold magical purple flowers in their hands.
A beautiful mysterious garden is in the background.

The sketch from a client vs The finished work

I LOVE when clients communicate their ideas in those sketches even if it’s just two stick men together!
It’s always so cute and I feel the connection immediately!

#coverart #mmart #mmromance #blart

A sketch from a client with simple figures showing character 1 sitting in a throne and character 2 leaning towards them

A finished full colour of “the prince and his stolen throne” book by J.E. Ridge with the same concept but made into a full illustration.

And the second character sits on the handle of a throne holding the first one from behind. Putting his hand over the character 1 shoulders

If y'all haven't gotten your fangs into Inhuman Nature? Oh, you don't know what you're missing. This book was funny, emotional, and incredible to read. @marramooreauthor.bsky.social created a world of mystery, BDSM, and drama that just sucks you in.

No, we will not stop with the vampire puns.

Every day at the moment just feels like I’m shouting into the void about my book, but the most horrifying part is knowing that it just…won’t end? Like, this is life as an indie author and there’s no escaping it 🫠

How do people manage to take a break from it? I feel like I’m working 24/7!

Some fun Inhuman Nature excerpts for today 👀

Pre-orders are up now, and ARC applications will be opening shortly!

#mmromance #shibari #meninrope

A red tinted picture of a man in shibari with text reading: “How does rope sound?” Rake asked. “Tight over your body, leaving plenty of indentations. DJ can trace the marks with his tongue after I let you loose.”
Oh. Oh. “That sounds perfect,” Shaun said.

A red tinted image of a man in shibari with text reading: DJ was a vision in white, his body contorted in a way that arched his back, with a single piece of rope between his teeth. He wore the ropes like his body had been built for the purpose of being tied; the indents in his flesh exquisitely accentuating his full figure.

A red tinted image of a man holding some rope with text reading: Shaun’s reactions to every added loop and cross Rake made with the rope were a wonder to behold. When Rake peeked at Shaun’s face, his expression was that of serenity; his head tilted back, mouth parted, his eyes fluttering closed every time Rake’s fingers ghosted over his skin.
