A black and white image of a girl with long hair looking down at a sliced off marble head of a man with a bloodred “tear”. Behind them is a collage. A girl sunken in water with a white dress flowing. A pearl with fire swirling around it. A boy, up in a tree, laying on a branch. A hilt of a jeweled sword, a stone bridge across a small river in a forest. A curled, pink, rosebud. A stone carving of a qilin. An open book laying upon leaves. A vial of liquid in an enchanted forest.

An Owlbound Spark 🦉🔥❄️

The world is ravaged by eternal winter and the magic that can end it is dead, until a crew of queer teens embark on a fantastical journey of self-discovery to thaw the seasons with the help of a mysterious owl.

#QuestPit #Q #YA #F
A boy with a woolly hat shrouded in the shadow of two lit full moons and an aurora borealis, with purple and blue flames hovering over his outstretched hands. It's snowing, and a magical blue owl is displayed, wings spread wide with those same flames inside its eyes. Art by @bauxxi.bsky.social An Owlbound Spark | Blurb Tyrus is a hot-headed boy who lost both his parents to the cold, and Lyra is a thieving girl with a knack for finding trouble. Their destinies collide when Tyrus bonds with Flake—a supposed-to-be extinct owl capable of lost fire magic—and helps Lyra as her settlement suffers a terrifying attack. Through new friendships and encounters with fantastical creatures, Tyrus and Lyra find out how to stop the eternal winter from claiming any more lives. Will they be able to collect the five splinters to the key that can save the world? Or will the world as they know it soon end as the last humans and elves perish to snow and ice? Tyrus, armed with Owlfire, and Lyra, wielding wit and daggers, are forced to face their fears and insecurities, navigate love and their sexualities, and figure out who they are, in a frozen world that is out to claim their final breaths. Two Comp titles are displayed over a blurry blue background. The Dragon Prince (Netflix) X Celestial Monsters (by Aiden Thomas) The "witty banter character dynamic" and "found family" of The Dragon Prince, meets the "fantastical creatures" and "queer cast" of Celestial Monsters, making for a "magical adventure".

A handy burnout timeline, for anyone who needs it:

Phase 1: Inspiration/joy block. You can still do your necessary tasks but anything extra and anything creative feels sapped, empty. You think some sleep can fix it.

Are you hungry? There’s a site widesale on the Hachette US website until December 03, and you can get your claws on VILE LADY VILLAINS for 30% off!

As to why I chose this specific picture… I guess you’ll have to read the book 😈

New interview with Danai Christopoulou about VILE LADY VILLAINS!

"So Klytemnestra and Lady Macbeth had always been favorites of mine, and growing up I started seeing the parallels between their characters, how they were almost an allegory for female ambition and power."
