sometimes i think that my book is generally tame for a fantasy, but when i'm asked to list out all the trigger warnings, i realize that there's actually quite a bit of intense stuff in here 💀

She loved him. He betrayed her. Now, the angel Illeana searches human lands for the boy who took her eye. But she quickly learns that his betrayal was only the beginning of a plot to free a demon queen… one she must stop, unless she wants to watch the world burn.

Wrote a short story for my writing fellowship! It’s a bit different from the kind of thing I talk about writing here, but I’m pretty proud of it. Give it a read!

my current WIP is also a YA fantasy but sooo different from TOEA that really shows how diverse the genre can be!! i love fantasy so muchhhh

She loved him. He betrayed her. But what the angel Illeana doesn’t know is that the boy who took her eye has become a key player in a plot to free a demon queen. It’s up to her to stop his plans… even if she can’t help but still yearn for him.

Now that I’ve got more eyes on my profile, I want to share the absolutely INCREDIBLE character art my friend Vivian (@/vivianisdrawing on instagram) made for Illeana, my beautiful, fiery one-eyed angel.

Want to meet her? Well, I #amquerying !!

It began with a promise, as so many betrayals often do. But now, with one less eye and an oath of vengeance empowering her magic, the angel Illeana hunts for the boy who once promised he’d keep her safe in the human lands… even though her heart still quietly yearns for him.

An angel sets off on a quest for vengeance against her human ex-lover who took her eye for its magic, only to learn that he is part of greater plot to bring about the reign of a demon queen.

r/AmIOverreacting: My ex (18M, human) gouged out one of my (18F, angel) eyes a year ago, so I swore a sacred oath to get revenge and am now hunting him down. Am I overreacting? #UnhingedPit #YA #F #Q
