I’m picking my in-progress series Blood Ties and Brickways, and while I’ve cast everyone in stock photos for reference I haven’t looked at actors yet - until now!

having a protagonist who hates cops is probably the best choice I ever made just on a structural level, to say nothing of what it says about her as a person

I don’t have any art of him yet, but my most beloved Jamie Fern is currently in one of my stories and will show up in more of them! He ran away from home with his faerie alchemist girlfriend who helped DIY his transition. He likes motorcycles, basketball, and Transformers.

Throwing some fanart up here that is tangentially connected to the concept of Werewolf Wednesday, but in this case the girl herself is holding the skin of another animal.

From “The Summer of 1871”, a prequel story to my novels featuring romance, neo-Victoriana, magic, and accidental Chicago slander. #WIPSnips #amwriting

Spoke too soon, forgot they upped it last year to $12, but still, $12/yr is less than I spend on anything else. And the features on the free app are still good; you just don’t get access to every one of their in-house assets

Today’s #WIPSnips took me to Toby, a physics teacher with a complicated parentage, and Meg’s own quest to solve her parents’ murder.
