Fantastic book! I remember borrowing my dad's copy a long time ago & he was so happy I liked it.

Glad I could make it on time this week!

As always my debut novel is available through my pinned post, but I'm here this time to hype my upcoming super short novella. A man enjoying the homestead life winds up having to do battle with a *supremely* fucked up deer in SOUR DOE. Coming soonish. 🤣

Thank you Eryn, lots of brain teasers

Thank you for hosting another lovely week, Eryn!!

As I've stated before, I've begun the work on Land of Gold's third and final draft! Going back to the Conceptualisation phase to shake things up a little bit.

Here... have a teaser 😈

#HorrorWritersChat
- Blink Sigil: Lucius can phase between spots to confuse, befuddle, and ambush enemies. - Sight-Split Sigil: Lucius splits his iris in eight ways, enhancing his peripheral vision and information intake in combat with multiple enemies. - Body Molt Sigil: each time Lucius’ bone is broken or muscle ruptured, he immediately heals that injury without the enemy noticing (hopefully). Works only once per body part/bone/muscle. - Moongash Sigil: when Lucius hits the target, their wounds burn with moonlight, heightening his accuracy. - Shadesilk Sigil: household sigil of the Shadesilk Denomination. Lucius perpetually emits a sonic signal that makes others instinctively less aware of him, especially when he’s in shadowed spaces. This signal also impairs their memory, worsening their recollection of his overall features. - Faces are a critical part of their design; they are slightly misshapen and discoloured. That is because a literal part of their face and head has been replaced with the Maven’s own design. Lucius will notice that it seems as if their heads is made of two skins, two eyebrows, two cheeks. One of their eyes has a different, darker colour and shape; each time a Demon tries to speak as themselves, the eye looks at their own, real eye, immediately rewiring their thought process. When activated to fight Lucius, the false parts of their faces grow even darker and pulsate with energy. - Their walk is oddly unnatural; everyone walks the same, with the same pace and gait to it. Essentially, every person’s individuality has been violently cut out. - Their hands and wrists are permanently angled and indented with fieldwork tools, like flails, pitchforks, etc. This would also give them a permanent threatening/about-to-attack poses.
