Today's #charactersketch shows An-Yin, Halfsoul's second MC. As the heir to the Fiveleaf clan, he was taught to kill vampires on sight. But what do you do when the vampire in question just saved your life?

Another #charactersketch from #Halfsoul. Today it's the vampire MC's turn.
Afya is torn between befriending humans and snacking on them. Originally from a desert continent to the south, she finds herself stranded on Ulong-Dan as a bodyguard to An-Yin, the second MC.

Our editors always urge us to keep it short. I guess that message has also reached the Berlaymont.

It begins! I love backing crowdfunding projects. My favorite thing that a crowdfunder has done in the past is always signed copies of books (because I almost exclusively back books lol; I am obsessed with having pretty books on my shelves) #TBBCountdown #TBB2026

It's time for #TBBCountdown... Where we give you one question a day, and you tell us ALL your thoughts. 7 More days until TBB launches, so we're asking today: what is one thing you wish all crowdfunder creators did?
