[ID: a book cover. in the center is a red lute with gold wisps coming out of the hole. the lute is surrounded by blue vines and blue flowers with orange centers.  the title on top of the lute reads “The Stray Spirit.” the text underneath reads “Lutesong Book One” and “R.K. Ashwick.” the second image shows both the front and back. there are more blue flowers and gold wisps on the back. end ID]

The Stray Spirit has a book cover!!

LOOK AT IT

AHHHHHHHHHH

!!!!!!!!!!!

IT’S SO PRETTY IM GONNA EXPLODE

IT’S LIKE IT’S A REAL BOOK OR SOMETHING

ahem. pulling myself together here.

I’m hoping to release this thing in the fall! as always, if you want to be the first to know about pre-order giveaways, ARCs, and release dates, the newsletter’s your best bet. the info will also hit Tumblr, of course, but a bit later.

V is okay!

but i love that for both of them. overly dramatic because something is new or because you love it and so does your partner

2 for clh for the oc nominations! also how are you oleg?

Heyyy, V! (is it okay if I call you V?) Doing fine, thanks! Exam season's approaching and WIPs invading brain simultaneously, good times...

2. Whiniest bitch?

I'd say it's Louis, a newly undead monster hunter, but given his circumstances he can be somewhat understood. Still overdoing it with the constant "woe is me". You're undead, you're not happy about it, we get it. Just, chill a little, won't you?

Evgeny takes second place because he's just overly dramatic about everything, so after half an hour you just want to open his settings and tune the theatre kid down a little. Kudos to Lev for living with that for centuries out of his own volition.

Someone: *says a random harmless phrase or statement to me*

Me, a writer, writhing on the ground like I’m about to transform into a werewolf: Oh God, oh f*ck, I feel—I feel... another story idea coming ooon *rips out notebook paper with a throat wrenching cry*

so what you’re saying is reverse Benedick and Beatrice from much ado about nothing

been seeing this tag on ao3 called “mutually unrequited” and i dont mean to nitpick but like….thats not…..what it means…………..

It’s always “why did you go out in the storm” and “your soaking wet” and never How was the storm The storm looked fun was it fun

hi eve !! kimchi and egg drop soup pls :)

hey rose! thanks for the ask!!

Kimchi Soup: Do you write best in first, second, or third POV? 3rd person. sometimes I struggle to get into characters heads with first, and it makes it harder to switch between povs. also I write mostly in that so practice makes it easier

Egg Drop Soup: Do you have any author/writeblr recommendations? tagging makes me nervous but here we go

@feywhisper @pens-swords-stuff @cloverfieldsforever @dumbbookshit @sleepyowlwrites @ellierenae @enchanted-lightning-aes @strangerays @vampire-with-a-pen @justapotatowriter @amberskywrites @ashen-crest @writing-is-a-martial-art @did-i-do-this-write @pagesofcursive and you ofc

this is mostly based on vibes as I don't read nearly as much of all their writing as I should, but they are all cool and amazing people

also angie sage is a classic for me with septimus heap, as is rick riordan, and I recently read legendborn by tracy deonn
