Zara 🏳️‍🌈

Oh nice! I do also love doing two handed , especially the war hammers 😌.

I love being a sneaky archer! Though my abilities with a bow are abysmal at best, so It's more of my backup/secondary build 😅.
I'm usually an elf (either wood or dark), one-handed + magic, then I swap between the different types depending on the unique ones I've acquired at the time.
What about you?

I go by: Zara, or Tori

My Zone: Mountain, US

3 fandoms: The Locked Tomb, Skyrim, and Vox Machina

3 Pet Peeves: adds in paid subs, coconut, and when books in a series aren't the same size

My Outlet: creating worlds that are as different from ours as possible

I've been working on a new story and it's also got creepy forest vibes and I'm having such a blast with it already 🥰.

I've actually been toying with the idea of doing this sort of thing for the short stories I've been working on publishing (first one is already out), give a cheap option for physical copies. I wasn't sure if there was a market for it though, will definitely give it some more serious thought now!

I miss having access to fresh tomatoes, they really are the best 🤤.

Hmm, hard to say as a lot happened in my life between the start and end of this story, but at least two years. I started it as a story for myself but fell so in love with it, I couldn't keep it hidden away.

Thank you!! ✨

While driving across the country, every campground I stopped at got a tiny dinosaur.

Also I made a new friend yesterday & they decided to return for a brief photoshoot.

Awesome! You're welcome.

Hey, just wanted to let you know your itch.io link is saying 'page not found'.

It's never too early in the year for Halloween decorations 😏.

I'm working on setting up a shop for my art, so I figured it was about time I start posting it 😅.

I took this when I was in Maine around this time last year, and aaah I want to be back there so bad right now.

I love to get hardcovers of novellas 🥰. They're so fun and cute and un-intimidating. I have 7ish right now but want to have a whole collection of them.

Advice from a 12yo:
12yo, "[When life's being a dick] you gotta fight back."
Me, "Ok but I'm small and weak."
12yo, "then kick it in the balls."

I'm almost out of my favorite coffee, & since I will no longer be shopping at certain stores, I was very sad I wouldn't be able to get it anymore, & then I had an epiphany: I can just search the brand and what did I find but a website to get it from the source 😱.

When my kids are grown I will absolutely shed anything resembling societal standards and become the nomadic queer your parents warned you about.

A little iced coffee in the sunshine to make things seem a tiny bit less bleak 😅.

I got a new drawing tablet! I can't wait to put it to use on the cover I've been working on.
