At the beginning of HOUND FOR HELL, Tristen has fucked around (tried to exorcise the wrong person) and is about to find out (be taught the error of his ways by a fallen angel) though Zophiel's methods may be a bit unorthodox.

When you’re trying to get some writing done, but the dog is staring at you like this 😂 guess it’s dog-petting hours instead

Rainy evening reading: delving into the art of book for Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein. This book is a TOME. I adored the movie and it is an absolute feast of gorgeous design, so excited to stare at all the details in this lovely giant book.

Out of context snip from my #WIP, Hound for Hell

Things are weird in the infernal realm and sometimes there are tentacles where you least expect 😂

Did I NEED to render my nsfw of Zophiel the fallen angel and her priest puppy, Tristen, to look like stained glass? Lol, no, but I’m sure as fuck doing it anyway.

Pre-raphaelite stained glass smut illustration coming soon 😅

“I think I enjoyed it more than I should have.”

This might be my favorite review of my sapphic horrormance, Swim With Me, Darling yet 😅

Does your Halloween read list have man-eating lesbian mermaids on it? If not, I can fix that for you! sylviehelstaff.com/swim-with-me...

Artist! Quote with your strong woman art!💪

My Dnd GM gave me a beautiful orc NPC girlfriend for my astral elf druid, so I had to draw him absolutely delighted at being carted off to get wrecked by her 😂

Her name is Zorugh Backbreaker, she works for the God of Death and I love her

Tenebrae, my shadow elemental OC, because he can turn into a 12ft tall indestructible spiky tower of rage

Some days I feel that way anyway, but he's got the claws (& lack of impulse control) to do something about it

Plus, his husband is a hot witch 🥰

As if I wasn't already so fucking excited to see this movie, the whole thing looks amazing, BUT...

Look at this hot skeleton person 😍😍😍

Hello??? I'm in love.

A moment of vulnerability as Zophiel explains the reasons behind her fall from "grace" to Tristen, a human priest who finds himself in the fallen angel's custody following a failed exorcism.

Working on art of Tristen getting up to some very wholesome Sunday activities. A different kind of religious experience courtesy of the fallen angel Zophiel 🙏
Both characters from my upcoming book Hound for Hell (and as side characters in Lust and Found out now!)

Tristen has unwittingly activated one of Izra's autistic hyperfixations. Our priest is about to get a Ted talk on pet play from his new infernal acquaintance.

I hope this doesn't awaken anything in him 👀 (spoiler alert: it does)
