Excited to see all the art!! On my part, here are some illustrations I made of my protagonists and a short animation meme to the song Harpy Hare! (TW for the video: mild flashing)

For today, I thought I would repost something I originally posted on my Instagram (anais.garnett) - a "what's in my characters' bags?"

I've only included the protagonists here, but if you're curious, I added the bags of some secondary characters in the original post on Instagram!

So many other WIPs... But at the moment, I'm drafting a NA political romantasy that follows a self-made courtier as he trains a pretender to be the missing Crown Prince of the kingdom! Court conspiracies, tragic romance, revolution... all fun things ✨️

Here's the moodboard!

My gorgeous rough collie Nessie and the void (that sometimes goes by Otto) 🫶

I find I can't start a project without a playlist to set the mood, what about you guys?

It's so tough to only pick one 😭 But for me, it's gotta be The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater!

There's so much to love about this book, but what always stands out for me is how it feels like being a teen again, off on a somewhat magical adventure with friends during the summer <3

Here's my moodboard and a few sensory descriptors! Shedding Velvet...

Smells like: a forest after a storm, cigarette smoke, old libraries

Sounds like: pen on paper, heavy rain

Tastes like: bitter black coffee, blood

Feels like: scratchy woollen jumpers, chilly Irish mornings

And it looks like ⬇️

Nice to meet you! I have a cat too, his name is Otto <33 What are your cats called?
