Canvas of Scars is a collection of dark poetry, short prose, and art by a trans masc author with themes of PTSD, psychosis, and other dark subjects. It's my first art/poetry collection, and it's my own story of what I survived and the art that helped me cope 🖤 #transpoetry 🌈📚 ♿♾️📚

Queer, slow-burn erotic gothic horror.
The book cover is shown surrounded by tropes. It reads:
Sapphic,
Overcoming trauma.
Polyam F/F/M.
Kill your abusers,
Standalone,
Hurt/comfort,
Kinky lord,
Blood-drinking & cannibalism.

Lord Deminas is known to be cruel. Yet, he's rather protective of Meya, his new chambermaid, and punishes anyone who dares hurt her. Servants regularly vanish, and with the Lord now drinking her blood, Meya and her paramour need to avoid the same happening to either of them.

I kept forgetting about it for a while too 😆

Posted more art on Cara. This one is the first time I drew Ifris, who appears in my book, It's Only A Little Death, which was written years later. The story of how he came about, which I wrote in the Cara post, is pretty interesting 💙 (he was trans before I knew what trans was 😆) #art #artwork #ocs

I might. I've made so much art through the years that I've got plenty to share 💜

Shane💀Blackheart (they/them) @shaneblackheart.com · 1d

I changed my avatar again 🙈 Just gonna keep my self-portrait up for the foreseeable future because I like it more, and I'm embracing being an artist for a change. People's positive opinions on my art lately, especially the art my poetry/art book, have really been uplifting.

New blog post up on my more personal dark side blog. I'm actually making progress with my mental health, finally. It's usually really hard to see it because it's so gradual, but writing about it really helps put it in perspective.

The censorship and sanitizing of the internet is just really getting to me. Like bad. I've literally melted down over it. I'm tired of it.

It really does 💜

Shane💀Blackheart (they/them) @shaneblackheart.com · 1d

For the record, there is no cursing. It's not explicit.

Oh no *gasp* I said the word 'sexual' 😱 or was it the even more naughty word 'desire?' Much scandalous. Very shadow ban. I am tired, Youtube. Very much so.

Great thread:

Since I see misinformation spread about Pillowfort often, and I think it’s a great site to join if you don’t want all your social media eggs in one basket, here’s a thread debunking common misconceptions I’ve seen over the years. 🧵

It seems to be picking up finally now that people are mad at Bluesky and finally saw that Pillowfort is basically what they've been wanting all along 😆 I just hope people don't bring the angry stuff over there 🙈 Pillowfort is like a cozy corner of the internet.

Yeah! It's really nice. I haven't been as active over the past few years, but I used to be a bit when it launched. It's cool though that I actually do get interaction on my art and stuff over there. It's just a different environment solely for creativity and just having a good time 💜
