He planned to ignore her.
Neither planned on saving a crumbling empire from a tyrant—or falling in love.

My wuxia fem rage short story, "The First Woman of the Qingyan Sect," is out now in the @awwlitmag.bsky.social Into the Dark anthology! This anthology is jam packed with amazing dark fantasy stories by so many talented authors, and I'm delighted to be in such good company. ⚔️🧟‍♂️

I wrote A FATE WOVEN IN STARLIGHT inspired by Daughter of the Moon Goddess, Cowherd and Weaver Girl, and my own love for cdramas ❤️ It's my love letter to the stories I've adored over the years that punched me right in the heart.

Just some graphics because I haven't posted here in a while😘

Thank you!! She did an amazing job!

Here's how much I wrote the first week of November! Trying to finish the first draft of my latest project by the end of this month 💪 Wish me luck!

This is a flowery graphic with post-reincarnation Yoon on the left and pre-reincarnation Max on the right, but turned at an angle with their character artworks facing each other. Above fancy robe-wearing Yoon there are lines that read: In the stillness of death, he immortalized her as his ever-loving, ever-living flower. It would be an eternity of affection. Above florist-uniformed Max are the lines: It wouldn't be so bad if this were the end, he thought... In their family, inconvenient things were silently buried. Especially death.

MARTYR! x THE NAMES but isekai

Max sees no future for himself until death reshapes him into a noble in an alternate ancient East Asia. As Yoon, he has it all: status, affection, & a prediction that his love is lethal. Is life worth living if it comes at others’ suffering?

A MEMORY OF MOONKISSED MALICE Fantasy Dark Academia Feminine Rage Vampires Corrupted Moon Magic Villain Era Protag Queendoms Enemies to Lovers Found Family

THE PITCH 18-year-old Alyss Veylas wishes to attend Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school's guardian, she finally gets that chance. Armed with a Moon Fragment granting memory magic and the aid of her ex and his new girlfriend, Alyss must confront the woman who took away the person she loved most.

CHAPTER ONE The rain made it easier to rob his grave. My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night's whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us. Us. As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

FOR FANS OF... The lush, gothic prose of... A fantasy academia setting similar to... A supernatural mystery like...

ONE DARK WINDOW X KATABASIS

Alyss attends Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. With the (reluctant) help of her ex, her ex bff, & a devious half-vampire, she'll use memory magic to uncover the truth behind the murder that destroyed her life.🌙🦇⚔️

An agent’s guide to: HEART OF THE BAYOU A YA Horror-Romance

The pitch: The deadly legends that prowl the bayou eat more than just souls— and one wants Elle's heart for her own ... When a paranormal migration brings a slew of deadly soul-eating cryptids to the quiet swamps of Louisiana, subsequently cornering the paranormal clinic 17-year-old Elle works at—she must find out why the bloodthirsty monsters are migrating before BOLT, a paranormal branch of the FBI, threatens to shut down the clinic and arrest its supernatural patients. But when she discovers her crush is hiding some monsters of her own, the kind of cryptid that might just take down the clinic and Elle's heart—she'll have to decide if she's ready to take the girl's advice and finally risk letting her own inner monsters out of the closet ... Comps: They Bloom at Night, I Feed Her to the Beast, A Feast for the Eyes, This Ravenous Fate, Hear Her Howl, The Coven Tendency

Snippet from HEART OF THE BAYOU: I'd heard of the brutality of how these cryptids killed. How the survivors were lucky if you managed to escape with only an arm lost. How they enjoyed ripping people from flesh to tendons and finally bone, before they dove for the final kill and snapped their prey's neck, the tell-tale halo of blood flowering above their victims' heads I only hoped there was something I could salvage once the beast finished. The man's shrieks didn't cease until the monster's eyes glowed brighter, rubies sparkling in the center of a dangerous black mass. His body stilled, transfixed in terror. A silent scream began to pry his lips apart as if drawn by an invisible force. I winced, the sounds of bones clicking, dislocating, and popping as the man's eyes rolled to the back of his head. A fleshy lump burst through his shirt, pulsating and twisting like worms had taken ahold of his skin.
