Preorder

I'm slowly expanding my skills! ONE DAY I WANT TO BE A MASTER OF EVERYTHING. But that'll never be the case because the beauty of art is this: you will never be done. The most important thing I've learned by creating throughout the years is that nothing is perfect. Do […]

Romance. It's in everything. No, seriously. It's in everything.  Truthfully, I used to kind of begrudge that fact. In some ways, I still do.  What the hell, Kestra.

It's always a bit of a challenge to strike a balance between that and writing a story within that. Since writing stories is my thing, I probably go about […]

Hello! Nova wants to share her story. In her words: ——————————— Vampirism. An academy made for monsters. A guy I want to eat because of a targeted and insatiable bloodlust. That’s what my life has become. I’m used to being the weird girl. When I look at people, I see […]

Since Marked by the Moon, I’ve been slowly building up a fantasy universe. I’ve always been infatuated with big stories like that, with so many entry points and paths you just want to dive into every story to see how these characters connect to past ones. There’s always the chance […]
