I wish I could comp Dungeon Crawler Carl lol it’s too big now but the survival is very similar to CRIES OF THE AGON’s contest rounds. Theres a dungeon in my book’s sequel 🥹 the biggest difference is my danger is slightly higher, there’s no level up& it’s romantic instead of a cat & her bodyguard 😂

Rosafière, an amnesiac vampire, is on the run from her husband (and sire). Trapped between the urge to return or to trust August, who promises answers and a love that’s real, her only hope for freedom is to drink her sire’s blood—which he refuses to give.

When an island whispers different versions of unwritten local legends and turning into a creature of the deep as a result of heartbreak makes you want to drown your ex- no one is safe

Especially not the ex boyfriends

So another author friend of mine is reading CRIES OF THE AGON and sent me this 👀👀 &oh indeed, the entire contest’s design is to (swiftly) harvest souls, but alas, there are opposing powers of mythical legends toying with the results. Poor Diarmuid, Haley & other souls 💔🫂🤗

I’m such a sentimental sap! I’m crying! I fully completed the game! Got all 86 ham chats, all 10 songs & all 12 stars! Oxnard, my favorite ham ham, had given me my last chat tofulfill my dictionary! My soul 😭 Now onto Ham Ham Heartbreak, probably one of my fav games of all time!

I cannot wait to receive The Sorceress of the Bone Grove to physically have in my hands. I’m so happy to have read it and can’t wait to read it again. It’s just so good! I want more!! Give me more!! 😩💕😁💙

Making tweaks on pages based on agent &editor feedback & giggling. They all love Diarmuid's voice. That makes me happy. ;-; He's a great character & I had fun writing whatI feel comes after his #myth when a Greek goddess curses his soul & he must fight against other mythical heroes to save it. <3

My very first original #character. Shes involved in a million fanfictions (particularly DBZ, Fate, Pokemon) where I imagine my characters in their worlds or their characters in mine. She’s the heroine in a story of gods, the supernatural & magic that I might publish one day 💙

In Honor of Pitchdis: I've written a blog post on Substack linked below.
I suffer from many professionally diagnosed health issues like idiopathic insomnia, ADHD, spinal nerve damage, and so forth but I'll always write and give the best version of myself for me and all you <3

I just finished my (too many to count) query rewrite after a god awful week testing my sanity & will to live after putting hours upon hours into Diarmuid’s stakes of the query and highlighting the agon more. Please let this be the one that sells the characters’ mental health arcs & the high stakes.😭

My completed duology is a dark mythic fantasy about an Irish hero whose soul is cursed and trapped in Hades and the healer who tries to save him to remove her bounty in a tortuous agon among the dead. It centers around the duality of mental health where one heals from past trauma and the other

I’m just trying to do things right, and respectfully. Sorry if my questions are annoying. I just don’t want to mess up or be a worse pain by mistaking foolish mistakes 🥲 But somehow, I feel like the biggest burden. 😭

In leu of being hyperbolic about how show don't tell sometimes manifests generic and overused phrases—I think I permanently scarred one of my writing mutuals.

It was:

"Eyes widen bigger than a woman giving birth lalala,"

They'll definitely remember that when reading "eyes widened" lol SORRY! XD
