Asking an artist if they can draw different shaped bodies (plus sized ones in this instance) feels like such a loaded question, but there's just not that much in the way of diverse body types in the character art I'm seeing.

Any tips/recommendations would be appreciated? 🙏🏻

I've had a weird couple of days and am going through a whole lot of feelings, and the only thing that is going to make me feel normal again reading is Gideon The Ninth for the forth time.

I have an international agent in my sights, and the only thing keeping me from hitting send is the uncertainty of whether an Australian Gothic Eco-Horror Thriller would land with non-aussie audiences.

Like, I'm obviously going to do it, I just need to fret for a bit first.

That thrill when a betareader is mad at a twist is better than sex 😘
