Look at this gorgeous Cleric of Aphrodite character art @ruesparks.bsky.social did of my MC Lauren. It’s her before AND after she wound up in a video game. I loved the depth of symbolism Rue put into this work.

I’m shopping around for good resources on the history of illuminated manuscripts and their art. I’d love to find some that folks here personally recommend.
Yes, this is for a book.

Your "dumb little projects" are so important during this harrowing time. Don't forget that. Your creativity has value, for yourself and for the world.

True story. You can find this line and many other examples of creative swearing in my #LitRPG book with bi and polyam rep called “Cleric of Aphrodite.”
