Who has time to finish bad games? I could list off the top of my head 10 good games that I'm not even close to finishing, and 10 more I'll be lucky to play in the next 10 years. Sometimes being a creator is such a downer 😭😭

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

Currently bundling copy edits and line edits together at 4.5 cents per word. DM about project scope and a free sample 🤗

I specialize in fantasy and horror, but will take any type of fiction if it fits (sci-fi, speculative, smut, etc.)

Between the state of the world, my October editing client bailing at the last second, and neverending edits on my own WIPs, I'm just saying screw it and going back to posting thirst traps on here. It keeps me going 😅

I have editing slots available for October/November btw, pending the coIIapse of the U.S. obviously. But hey, these are the times for REAL art, not the AI plague

SFF books are political.

Now go read The Planets on Earth to see how beauty, kindness, music, and elegance triumph against ignorance & tyranny on a fragile dystopian Earth.

The apocalypse is also caused by a planetary alignment. So naturally, there’s one irl rn 🪐

Time to try this! Be forewarned, I was a music major/teacher, so all of my choices will be undoubtedly awesome 😉 There will be mostly instrumentals, and few guitars

Bence & Greta. 2 custom #MTG cards created by me & my co-author bro. Like Ravnica except better, we created an original world w/11 colors & 14 4-colored guilds, then used this as the basis for our #fantasybook 📚💙

Sauzberg, the setting of #OperaOfSouls, country of fire, lightning, dark, & darker🔥⚡😈🐦‍⬛

A hand-drawn pale long-haired man in a purple cloak with red straps, gold embellishment, and a katana. MTG text and keywords such as "hero, champion, partner, lightningstrike, and intimidate."

A hand-drawn pale girl in a magenta dress with black-red eyes and brown hair on her hands and knees. MTG text and keywords such as "rogue, skulk, unleash, other heroes and vampires."

Here's another painting I did. This one was for #OperaOfSouls, my epic dark gothic fantasy book with vibes inspired by Magic: the Gathering, Dark Souls, Parasite Eve, and Vampire Hunter D.
