Tapas App - Tumblr Posts
Why do most of the webcomics on Tapas' home page look like they were all drawn by the same person with pretty much the same look as all the other protags.
Chapter 28 of Soulless Prince (not posted yet, you have to wait until Oct 18 to get context)
Gasping a few times, Lily swallowed. "I'll ask Marigold. Don't… Don't come out before I see what Lady Gwenivar is doing?" She lifted her head to look up at him. Her face was still flushed, cheeks wet.
Despite that, Reed still thought she looked cute. He didn't like that she was crying for him, of all people.
This situation could kill me… I could die tomorrow. Do I really want to die without having kissed her at least once?
But part of him still didn't quite believe that this might be the end.
At least it wasn't like his first death: helplessly stuck in a pothole and hit by a truck going eighty. Still… it was a pretty pathetic death. Hanged by his superior officer because Small Dick Energy.
Reed kissed her.
Lily went stiff in his arms, but her fingers clutched the back of his coat, preventing him from withdrawing from her embrace. He broke the kiss to see what her expression was.
She stared up at him, lips parted. The flush had turned from tears to embarrassment. Lifting slightly onto her toes, she kissed him back.
Lily didn't know what she was doing but was a quick study. He slid his hand into her hair, savoring the sweet taste of her mouth, and taught her more when she let him slide his tongue in. She arched against him, gripping his back.
Fully flushed when they parted lips again, Lily took several breaths in preparation to say something, but whatever words she wanted to speak kept getting caught. "This isn't goodbye," she choked out. "No." Reed shook his head. "But I'm probably not going to be your captain for much longer, so I figured it was alright to do that now."
Her brows rose. "Is that it? You… because you were my captain? You break all the other rules all the time!"
"Yeah, but I didn't want to force you into something you couldn't say no to… and what if we get into an argument? It was awkward enough with Timmons and Avery at each other's throats," Reed explained. He cleared his throat, "Besides, I'm really not good at the whole commitment thing and…"
"And?" Lily demanded, raising her voice slightly. "Are you saying you're not going to take responsibility for this?"
"It's just a kiss—"
She pinched his back. "Not to me!"

...I need more writer friends on here.
@lunatic-fandom-space - for funsies.
friday kiss tag!
thanks for the tag @the-golden-comet!
Rules: From your Story/WIP, post a kiss scene. It can be any kiss, from familial pecks on the cheek, platonic smooches, forehead kisses, to full-blown makeouts.
If you haven’t got a kiss scene to share, no worries! Think of this like a writing share!
Rules: Share a snippet from your story/WIP
its been ten days since i was last on tumblr, its been a busy few days but i logged back in and saw this tag game and i just couldn't resist!
(also thank you to everyone that's tagged me over the last few days- im so sorry i wasn't around but i'll be doing my best to catch up!)
and to ease myself back into writeblr i thought i'd share a little snippet from a new story i'm working on! (as yet unnamed, but i'm very excited)
the snippet:
"Step back Freckles or I might get the wrong idea." "Wrong idea? I'm holding a knife to your throat." Nick lowered himself, resting his chin on the tip of her blade, smirking. "Precisely." "What on earth are you doing?" She gripped the knife with both hands, forcing herself to hold it steady. For some inexplicable reason her fingers wanted to tremble. "Testing your limits, as per usual." "What?" Her throat grew tight. Why would he admit to it after all this time? "Actually... No. I'm seeing how you'll react." "To what?" "To..." Nick wrapped his hands around hers and forced the blade down, out of his way. "This." He slammed his lips into hers.

New chapter of Empyreal Calamities is up! Emotions are running high, the siblings are snapping at each other, & Len is just trying to help them as best he can.
New chapter of The Weak Dwarven Prince is up! We meet Rustam's uncle, Ignacia's grandmother, & the kids have a sleepover after sneaking out of the party.
“Think about it. The Soulless Prince wakes up on Blessing Day, just before the crown competition announcement. Nyltia herself said Gwain was to be king. She’s been insisting Solace not be composted for seventeen years. Y’all’s goddess has been all over this mess from the start. Yet you’re denying that maybe she knew this shit was about to explode and gave us a weapon?”
Turning to look back at Reed, Captain Raccoon lifted both his brows to his hairline. “A Han lecturing a Dur on Nyltia’s faith? Now I’ve seen it all.”
Reed shook his head, lifting his hands out. Figuring he’d gotten as far as he was going to get on this, he stood. “Just tell everyone to stay indoors at night, no wild parties.”
Raccoon lifted his brows again, this time sarcastically. “You tell the Hans that.”
“Yeah. I know. They’re loud.” He waved his hand dismissively.
Chapter 1 of The Midnight Hand releases on Tapas on October 1. A little bit of horror, a little bit of fantasy, and a lot of weirdness.
Something dark and ancient stirs deep underground and there is but one choice, finding The Midnight Hand. Five lives, five stories, converging into one as they must discover what lies beneath the earth itself. Will they destroy each other first, or will they find a way to work together despite their inherent chaotic nature?
New haiku is up! Today's haiku is about people asking questions...not even five minutes after waking up. Like, why? Please don't.
Chapter 20 is posted, but don't worry, Soulless Prince will continue to chapter 30 before the entry period ends!
Did Vice-Captain Fisk actually give Reed permission to fight Sir Blanch, or was it a lie to trap him in assault charges? High nobles can't be trusted, after all…
I’ve started making character drawings for my five mains from my new web novel, The Midnight Hand. First out is Sigurd! He is a country boy who gets strange, alarming visions about events that have been and events not yet happened. His village has secrets buried deep down, which will affect his whole life. 👀
He is one of five main characters in The Midnight Hand, all with separate stories, until somehow they are pulled together.
New chapter of The Weak Dwarven Prince is up! Rustam visits Ignacia, who's been working nonstop for the past 4 days & her explanations get...cheesy. Luckily for him, Daelyniel & Galenova are kind of there to help sort through the madness.
The next two chapters of The Weak Dwarven Prince are now up! Chp 17: Rustam attends a meeting & Dael & Galenova are researching & receive unexpected help. Chp 18: more Rustam & Igy friendship moments. And Rustam receives a new gift & a letter w/some encouraging words.
