A note from the Author

Just some boring updates

Hello hello

This post is really just me, in part setting new year resolutions, and in part just letting you know what I am going to be up to.

I don’t do so well sticking to my resolutions, but I have realised that the year becomes a little less purposeful without me properly aiming for anything at all. So there.

Special months:

• April:

  • I will likely be taking the month off to focus on my WIP.

  • I’m still wondering if I should promise a post a week in April here on Substack, but it is not something I can commit to at this point, since it really depends on how free I am in the month of March. Will try to let you guys know then.

• August:

  • SMAUGUST!

  • Focus on world-building.

• October:

  • INKTOBER!

  • Maybe another custom prompt list?

Ongoing art projects:

• Slowly churning out Pirate Dragon story illustrations.

• Illustrations for BentButTrue’s Fairytales for the Damaged.

  • So far there are five in the book… If I try to do one illustration (or two) per week, I should be done by February/March 2026.

• Learn landscape digital art so I can do Kivith justice when I draw him and Ryn.

  • Again, if you have not read Morgan A.Drake’s Mountain Bond, you really have to give it a shot. There is a reason why I am so obsessive about it.

  • Try to get good by end-January and start churning out illustrations.

  • In the meantime, Kivith silhouettes xD

• Cartoon dragons for a children’s book illustration. Not sure how this would turn out so keeping it vague.

Want me to draw/paint something for you?

Most commonly requested pieces

• Open to commissions, but my limits are:

  • I’m still working full time hours, so if you have a big project and deadlines, I might not be the best person to work with.

  • If you want pretty looking humans… Can’t help you there HAHAHHA

  • DM me.

• Teacup dragon screensavers

  • For those who want a custom-made screensaver with a teacup dragon inside, read about them here:

• If you like my art and you:

  • Want to receive regular hand-painted post cards every other month

  • Like to receive letters via snail mail

  …maybe consider becoming a paid subscriber?

• Subscribe for free if you want your feed to be flooded with more dragon art MUAHAHAHA

Ahem. Right. Moving on.

Ongoing series

• The Fields of Asphodel (supposed to be cosy horror.. eh.. I am trying lolol)

  • Which I will try to post at least once a week.

  • With my/my hubby’s own narration.

• Morg, the Dragonologist (A famous Dragonologist and specialist in the Uncounteds moves into Kingsland to learn the lore of the land and of the dragons who live there. Two of the King’s Dragons are assigned to assist her. Guess who.)

  • A cosy collaboration with Morgan nic Aoidh and myself

  • Look out for a chapter (usually split into parts) at the end of each month

• Meanwhile I chip away at my own WIP novel, “The Circus Dragon”.

  • Okay okay. Mello says I should set a deadline. I’ll churn out a chapter a week.

Also…

Help me vote on a pen name? (My hubby thinks I should use “The Circus Dragon”, so that’s worth, like, 10 votes hurhur)

That’s all, folks!

Thanks for reading <3
