Slayer of Yggdrasil has a brand new cover!

This webnovel updates Monday!

It's free to read and features an asexual lesbian & agender bartender who's host to a sentient weapon on a quest to defeat a corrupted magic tree.

Digital art of a buff woman with stawberry blonde hair in a braid leaning her arms against a gigantic bronze axe made of countless interwoven metal vines. Behind her, a tree burns from the inside out. Text on the image reads "Slayer of Yggdrasil"

Really hoping the pain I have when I breathe is just a muscle I pulled in my back somehow during the night.

Lots to do today and this week.

Gonna stay off social media now. If you need to reach me you can do so via email, phone, or discord.

Stay safe, everyone!

I mean, if the CEO of Microsoft wants us to start calling it "AI Shit" and the machines that make it "AI Shitters" then there's that too.

Digital drawing of chibi cute versions of three characters from Outside Cats. Leaping in the air is Odin, a scarred up gray tom cat with one bright red eye and one normal gold eye. In the middle stands Freyja, a woman with red hair in a little pony tail and green eyes who's wearing a gray t-shirt and jeans. Below them is Sprinkles, a big headed kitten with light yellow spots and stripes against cream colored fur. Text on the image reads "Happy New Year! Outside Cats"

Huh.
Screenshot of Merriam-Webster's Your 2026 Word that reads: Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg (It's the name of a lake that was trending for much of 2025 on Merriam-Webster's site. I kept seeing it every time I checked the spelling for things while writing last year.)

I'm not going to bother setting goals for myself like "get a literary agent" or "get a book published" or even "get new glasses" for 2026.

Things never work out.

I'm just going to keep my head down & keep writing, drawing, & working on comic flats as best I can. We'll see where I wind up next Dec

Oat milk kept telling me my story ideas were too weird and readers wouldn't connect with a non-human main character.

May write a short story where people strip all the silver and gold out of AI data centers after the AI bubble pops like people stealing copper wiring from old houses.

I love the Eric Carter series! He's my favorite dirtbag wizard.

I need more people to read these books so I have folks to talk to about them.

I also need spare time so I can finally draw some fanart. I've wanted to draw fanart of Eric Carter for years. ;A;
