Is it hot in here or is that just sapphic romantasy page overlays for Faebound by Saara El-Arifi? This is the German edition, I believe, but this artwork needs no translation! ๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿ”ฅ

Books 1 & 2 are out now.
Book 3 next year.

Took me years to put it to paper, but itโ€™s *always* been there. Itโ€™s a difficult world to revisit.

When WHO FEARS DEATH was in development at HBO, I deeply understood that I NEEDED to finally write Najeebaโ€™s part of the story. Otherwiseโ€ฆsheโ€™d get erased.

I don't know anything about the Met Gala, I don't know the date or the theme or most of the celebs or any of the designers but once a year my social media is flooded with pictures of beautiful people in weird fashion and I love it. Aesthetic enrichment for my enclosure.

I got commissioned to paint griddlehark imagined as a classic romance novel cover, which needless to say is one of the greatest commissions of all time and I had an absolute blast.

a very good feeling is getting a book from the library that you were considering purchasing and then finishing it and thinking "that sucked ass, i'm so glad i get to give this shit back"
