A graphic with the 'Kickstarter' logo at top, followed by "Launching 1 April 2026"

Underneath is a screenshot from a Kickstarter campaign that highlights the "Notify me on launch" button. The campaign is about TROUBLED BODIES: A cannibalistic horromance novella by Jake Vanguard. The cover is displayed as both ebook and paperback. The cover shows a red skull, black background, title and author.

Gonna have a Kickstarter campaign to finance my horromance novella TROUBLED BODIES in April!
If that sounds any good to you - I appreciate any shares and saves 🫢

There's also the option to sign up for ARCs!

Hi guys I made another. Symbolism is ruining my life. Themes of motherhood and systems and harm and perpetrating and victimhood abound in me...

i think the fact that i can say over and over again 'i am not being ironic, this is not a bit, my books are not a joke' and have people on the right AND left just say 'NO YOU ARE' to my face (or my mask) over and over again is very telling. culture just cannot deal with neurodivergent people yet

post depicts OCs. twins Dio and Alex to lyrics from Space Song by Beach House over them "Were you ever lost?" as Dio questions if his fear of returning home and resentment towards their mother justified the price his sister paid to find him again and "Was she ever found?" as Alex put her life on the backbench looking for someone who didn't want to be found for the approval of their mother who would never be pleased with the false hope that if she brought what was left of her family together again things would change

rain and ripple. guilt and grief.

In other words, my presence on bluesky is starting to turn into a French Revolution fan page except I'm not even a fan I just casually really enjoy drawing these two fucking characters me and friends created

The good news is all the brazen, cartoonish corruption makes it easier to run on an anti-oligarchy, good government platform. The bad news is you still need candidates who want to do that
