The cover for my new #mmromance with a touch of fantasy and #horror. There is no preorder link, because there is no preorder. Sorry. I was too busy with editing, translations and going to Christmas markets to get it done. It wil be out later this month. I will let you know.

This is a vintage (50s) ice bucket my sister gifted me because she knows I like old stuff. But because I don't need an ice bucket, I turned it into a lamp and it's cute. So I thought I'd share.

WTF was this last #Talamasca episode? I'm glad the twins got to see each other, but I thought Jasper would be smarter, and the big reveal wasn't one, and of course the Order are forever the bad guys. Can we put even more freaking clichés into this show? I'm sure we can find some in a basement

I wrote the blurb for I Wish He Was Dead, Hellflowers book 5, today. But I fear it does not sound like a romance. It sounds like a horror story. Kinda wanna keep it anyway. Sent it to my betas for feedback. I mean, the book deals with a plant demon eating bad people, so maybe it's fine?

Episode 5 of #Talamasca was weird. And I still don't care much for most of the characters. I'm kind of glad there is only one episode left, and I will be done with this mess. It would surprise me if they should get another season...

So, on episode four of The #Talamasca. I don't hate Jasper that much anymore (might change next episode), but Guy is still a fucking idiot. At this point he deserves to be slapped hard. Why is this show so meh?

I'm watching The #Talamasca, and every single episode I ask myself, is Guy (why is this his name?!) stupid?
And the answer is sadly yes. He is.
This show has none of the lush academia/magical aesthetics either. I dislike all the characters that are still alive.
In short, I'm disappointed.
