Aït Ben Haddou, Morocco. The closest you'll get in seeing Amaveriel's buildings in real life. 💙📚
A scenic shot of Morocco's square, carved buildings catching the golden rays of a setting sun. They're of different heights and widths. With the different elevations, you get to see them stack upon each other like the sea. At s closer look, you get to see their walls carved designs near the top of their flat roofs. A strip of pale blue and yellow sky lies at the top of the photo.

TW: Pet grief

Richard's paw print impression finally came in and I'm blown away from how beautiful it looked. Most if the ones I had received were usually white putty with the name inked or scratched in (still made with love, of course). I didn't know this could be done and I'm so thankful.
A golden paw print impression of Richard's two paws shaped like a heart. Scratched in it was his name, with two stylized hearts, 'beloved', and an image of a cat lounging at the bottom. There's a white ribbon tied at the corner.

Penny for the guy?
Voila! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villian by the vicissitudes of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi. Now vacant. Vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guardin vice and vouchsafing the violenty vicious and viracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance. A vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

Happy Halloween everyone!

Thank you everyone for letting me take some time off to mourn Richard's passing. Tonight, there'll be a small memorial for him and my beloved cats. After all, it's also a day to remember and celebrate those who passed.

Don't forget, Danse della Morte is(1/2)
Me, no makeip, wearing my glasses, and my hair is pulled back so you can see my smiling face. I'm wearing my black sweater for Halloween. A view of the black embroidery on the black sweater: a little ray of pitch black. The letters were surrounded by bats.

Art stream was a much needed stress release. And they came out so pretty!

ecit: I realized my dyslexia flipped the e and a with Rhyllae's name. *sigh*
Watercolor. Shades of blue and purple arranged as bl9cks of rapid brush strokes. In front of the color blocks is "Aramis" written in sharpie black ink. Then the whole page is dotted by specks of blue and purple. The backdrop is white. Similar to one prior, but the blocks of color is a range of yellow, orange, and peach. They were diffuse throughout the page, bathing in a warm sunny glow. "Rhyllea" was written, but the character's bame is Rhyllae. It too is speckled with orange and yellow dots. Similar to Aramis page. A watercolor blocks of red, pinks, and purple in that order. the red block at the far left has one drip line down. in the upper middle of the colors is a dash of yellow. there's also a horizontal streak of a rust orange at the bottom right of the colors. "Dawn" is written in black ink. There are red, pink, and purple dots all over the page.

#booksky 🌈📚
In a smoky haze, there's a gilded mirror reflecting a man's face. The mirror is cracked. "Who's face do you want to see reflected in the mirror? A friend? A foe? Or something much more... Monsterous?" Same backdrop as before, with these following words: "The Doppelganger Queen Buy Now in bookstores near you"

Through the lavender and blue smoky haze, there's a gilded mirror with a man's reflection upon it. It's also cracked. The text reads from top down: "Who's face do you want to see reflected in the mirror? A friend? A foe? Or something much more... Monstrous?"

Going to do my first Humblewood campaign with the fam!

(Blondie is excited, but she's pretending not to.)
Me smiling in the background (brown hair down and wearing a grey light sweater) with my champagne blind tabby, Blondie. Another picture of me and Blondie, but now you can see her face in profile.

I found them. I found my father's book. I know it's silly to cry like this, but I'm immensely relieved that they're not gone. Here are photos of what they look like.
A black binder with bold letters "History of the Second World War" is displayed upon it. It lies diagonally on a box of the other volumes of the same binding. The box is nestled with other packed away items. The carpet is beige. The first page of the first magazine of the serves. The headline is "Prelude to Disaster" and there are three columns of text. Also, there are two blue color blocks. One runs as a header and the other in the bottom right corner as a box. In the blue heading, there's a black graphic of a soldier raising his arms up as if he was hit in the back. His rifle floats vertically before him.

If you want to read a hero that is old and still have to save those he love...
If you want to read a hero who might be just as twisted as the villain...
If you want to read a hero who falls, but gets back up again...
Then read the Doppelganger Queen and meet Aramis.

A blurred background of gray blue, navy, light brown, and beige. In the foreground, to the right, you have a poloroid photo of the Doppelganger Queen book cover. Written on the pooroid "Aramis Feres has failed..." In the foreground, to the left, were two texts. One says "A LGBTQ, Dark Fantasy" The other text is written on a scrap piece of paper with tape. It reads "What is the weight of a soul burden by grief?" Same bluured background as one prior. A white square not was taped up to reveal the following text: "Failed his friends on an expedition gone awry. Failed to keep his marriage intact. Failed his city. But what promises he couldn't keep, he swears to rectify. Having unearthed a tome that can raise an army of ghouls, he finds himself surrounded by thieves and cutthroats--all vying for ownership of the book. After it is stolen by the last person he would have ever suspected he must race to recover it before the tritual is completed by the insidious Doppelganger Queen. Witness the stunning inception of the Silver Fox series: a LGBTQ+, dark fantasy adventure set in a far flung future. Perfect for D&D fans who want humor and horror in their next literary escape."

Sorry for the lack of posts, everyone. I have been knee-deep in my research. Here's a kitty post to appease you.

Beginning my research for the fourth book of the series and whew is it hitting close to home 😬
A text of dictatorship from the Britannica. Dictatorship, form of government under which one person or a small clique exercises autocratic control of a state. In the Roman Republic, the dictator was a temporary magistrate with extraordinary powers granted to deal with state crises. Modern dictators, like the ancient ones, have taken over the reins of government in times of emergency, but they have used the powers thus gained to establish a permanent, autocratic, and sometimes, despotic rule. Examples include Atatürk in Turkey, Mussolini in Italy, Hitler in Germany, and Salazar in Portugal. They resemble the ancient tyrants rather than the ancient dictators. Plato and Aristotle both make lawlessness—either rule by personal fiat or government in violation of standing law—a mark of tyranny...

Finished both the 'Gods of Jade and Bone' and the 'Tale of Two Cities.' It took me months to find the time to read them, but I finally did it.

So, for the next several months (or next year) I'm going to read 'All the Light We Cannot See' by Anthony Doerr. This might end up being part of my...

There's a new plant baby in the house.
A small and wide snake plant in a clay and white planter, on top of a black coffee table. An arrangement of my plants in top of the bookshelf by the window. Tom left to right: snake plant, a cactus, a poinsettia, a tiny pine tree, an olive sapling, and a tiny holy plant.
