Fake seller alert on Amazon. If anyone sees Webdelico and Amasinbooks selling books on Amazon, watch out. They're a scam/shell company claiming they have my books (and millions of others books) and don't. They never send a book, just get your money and to date have never given out one refund.

Gamewise, probably either Golden Sun or Devil May Cry 3 Bookwise, easily Eragon or Through Wolves’ Eyes. I have trouble picking one favorite. How can I pick between so many greats?

Next #writingprompt - talk about a character you'd consider to be a "rules lawyer". I guess this is most common in fantasy role-playing, but maybe your character is just a rules stickler? There's a great explanation of that here: tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwik...

Well I made my Hunters a wild and probably certifiably insane bunch. Probably the closest character to this would be Edwin. He doesnt show up until later in the series. He believes the rules and laws of his homeland are key to lasting peace. He executes his orders without hesitation.

Have you listened to Across The Sun by @silkrhodebooks.bsky.social, it's on YouTube. #manga #anime #fantasy #dnd #writer #author #booksky #readsky #drawing #sketch #digitalart #ink

Does anyone know reliable places to source free or low-cost illustrations that I can use for social media marketing? I'm trying to make a TikTok video about what inspired my book, Eltaris, but there's so much AI everywhere that I'm nervous to use the images I find. #indieauthor #art #selfpublishing

For our first #writingprompt, share one of your pacifist characters. Here's a great explanation of that: tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwik...

I try to make it so, still a long way to go

Hmm I do have one that comes close. He is only passingly mentioned in Beatrices’ book. Blagden comes from an order of monks that refused to hail the Demon Emperor’s call. They were wiped out by him, with Blagden the only survivor. He escaped to the human world, but never helped in the war efforts

Pssssshhhh! Do you need an artist or illustrator or just want to read a new manga? DM me or check out the link in my bio for either option. #balance #manga #anime #artist #art #fantasy #kidsbooks #readsky #booksky #drawing #sketch #dnd

Potentially…. 😅 I try to keep “poetic” sentences to a minimum, as I view too many as hindering. Still trying to find a balance

Another image from the project I am working on with @silkrhodebooks.bsky.social and another author. If you want any artwork I am available for commissions. Just DM me or reply in a post. Hope your having a great weekend. #manga #anime #comcis #art #artist #kidsbooks #illustrations #booksky #read

Well… there was the group story my siblings and I made with all our toys and stuffed animals. 🫣”Team Warrior” lmao (we seriously had whole arcs and big scripted battles. Mostly influenced by DBZ 😆 Personally, I literally spun an entire new universe based on DBZ, that went on for years.

This one is for @alenewolf.bsky.social, this is part of the lore around today's patreon drop. www.patreon.com/posts/128046... #balance #manga #anime #comics #graphicnovel #drawing #art #artwork #artist #illustration #sketch #monster #creature #mushroom #fungus #fantasy #dnd #author #writer

Probably the biggest thing would be a change to Beatrice’s overall personality. They way I wrote her makes it very integral to the story’s tensions. And, probably Roy’s and Beatrice’s relationship. It has always been a central part of the story since its earliest phase

Blazaken remains one of my favorites. Although I love pretty much everything Sinoh and before. (hoenn remaining my all time fav)

Game : Absolutely! My current project is heavy inspired by (and is a “love letter”) to Devil May Cry. So to have my book adapted into game form would be an absolute dream. Film and TV… I have been back and forth on. “The money could be good!” Vs “I really don’t want my baby distorted”
