ID: a pinup portrait of edward little from the terror, illustrated in soft muted blues. he is a white man with a muscled but soft build, with dark wavy hair and mutton chops. he is posing demurely on a chaise, head turned so as to look over the shoulder, with a shy but pleased expression. he wears a scant, lace-lined lingerie set, adorned with a small rose at the bust. a single strap falls off one shoulder. he wears stockings that come up to the knee, fastened with matching rose garters. end ID

I unfortunately was not selected as an artist for this year's pinup calendar, but here's hoping for next year! I thought, what a perfect opportunity to share this little thing I did some months ago!!

ID: a digital illustration of edward little from the terror. he is a white man with thick eyebrows, wavy dark hair, and mutton chops, wearing a buttoned up navy coat. he has a weary and dismal frown, with dark under-eye circles, and written around him are the words: “every day I get emails.” end ID

public libraries in the usa offering free digital library cards to people not in their areas (as of october 2023):

these cards (part of the books unbanned initiative) get you access to each library's complete libby/overdrive collection (unless otherwise mentioned), no hoopla/kanopy/physical copies included.

ebook collections are expensive to maintain (many american libraries have annual fees for non-residents because of this) but because of an uptick in book banning (particularly brutal in mississippi last summer) larger libraries have opened their doors more, which is very kind of them!

i've used my seattle card for the last several months and their libby collection has about three times the books that my local library does, which is wonderful for accessing more niche titles or skipping a waiting list. would love to hear of similar ebook initiatives internationally!

i use library extension (firefox/safari/chrome compatible) to check all my collections (+ the internet archive) at once, works for several different countries highly recommend it.

spotify seems to be offering 15hrs/month of audiobook listening to premium subscribers and while that does seem useful if you're already paying and are after a new release with a long library waitlist, libraries are better for everything else.

TREKTOBER 2023!!!

We're back!!!

For the fifth year in a row, Aisha and I are kicking off the first phase of Trektober with release of the official 2023 prompt lists. Releasing the lists now gives everyone participating plenty of time to plan ahead before posting starts in October.

As in previous years, there are three lists, each with their own theme.

As always, the third (spicy) prompt list can be found below the cut, for those who prefer to avoid.

Have another fake preview…

You guys are just encouraging me with these notes. 👀

I promised Twitter that if my tweet about this gets 300 retweets I’ll post another fake page. 👀

So, for anyone who remembers this old comic that started it all… I’ve made a GAME inspired by it!

🖤My free-to-play visual novel, “Phantom of the Black Rose Revue,” is now available!🖤 This nostalgic yuri game features 19 animated CGs, 13 original music tracks, and an introduction to the world, mysteries, and love interests of the Revue! 🖤

Signal boosts greatly appreciated, especially as this game is entered in the Spooktober Game Jam!
