Do you have a bluesky account?

Yeah, but I'm not active on there! I'm mostly on IG and TikTok nowadays.

Hello! I love your artwork, and I really am excited about reading SoulSkin, but I can't seem to find anything about the book's release date. I was just hoping to ask when that may be?

Hi! Thank you so much! I actually just signed with a publisher to have it released in France!! I can’t disclose any information for now, as it is all extremely recent, but it will be available in bookstores in France and how well it sells there will impact its availability everywhere else.

A year ago, as I was struggling to work on my novel, despite making concept arts and writing daily, I doodled the main character, the princess Blanche, with who I assumed could be her father's jester. The character didn't even exist in the story yet, he came out of the blue, out of that sketch, but he put everything else into place. Something had been missing, and that "something" was a fool. Now, A year later, the book is written, and I'm looking into finding a publisher. There's nothing more I can do at the moment but wait, and I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the overwhelming support you showed me throughout the year. Writing this book was necessary, I had no other choice but to follow those characters into their world, but all your comments, your fanarts and even cosplays made the journey a million times better! I hope I'll be able to share their story with you soon ❤️

It's been too long since I wanted to do a fanart of Auren, from the Plated Prisoner book series by Raven Kennedy The first time I drew her was a commission and I hadn't read Gild yet, so glad I picked it up 💛

[crimson-spine]

I was wondering if you will be posting your plated prisoner art to tumblr? I saw it on Instagram and fell in love and would love to reblog it from you on this platform!

Oh yeah, sure! Let me just slam a lil watermark on it, and I'll post it. Thanks for asking!

Always a pleasure to work for you ♥️

This stunning Suren (the Stolen Heir) commission was done for me by the amazing @crimson-spine and I love how well she managed ti highlight Suren’s fierceness while keeping the inhumanity and beauty still♥️

Two days ago, the bae @jmlascar finished the first draft of her novel!!! I was extremely lucky to read it along; it's a beautiful goth love story, and a powerful tale about living when it seems there's not much left to live for. I can't express how much I adore her way with words and how blown I am by the depth of her characters, but I hope this illustration gives it an idea. So proud of you Jules, you're such an inspiration, the world would be duller without you ❤️

From the bae's post: "Soo, if you're interested in a dark fantasy sapphic story about a cursed woman and the revolutionary she falls for, powerful women with dubious morals, a strange plague, and a climate similar to France in the 19th century (aka: messy) — hang around this space, because [ @jmlascar ] I'll be looking for beta readers in a couple months"

Have you read any other books from sarah j maas, other than ACOTAR ? I love your fanarts <3

Thank you! I started Crescent City when it got out but couldn't get into it (I really need to try again), and I have a copy of ToG that I haven't had time to start yet. Which one would you rec the most?

[crimson-spine]

Where can I access your books

They aren't available yet! The Tears of Mercury is on its way to publishers, and I'm still in the middle of writing Soulskin. Thank you for your interest!

"They believe us pawns. You, their queen, me, their bishop. Our gambit is acceptable, never doubt it."

SoulSkin/Peau d'Âme is my WIP novel, a retelling of the Donkeyskin fairy tale centered on: daddy's issues solved by cannibalism, fucked up fairy curses, internalized misogyny, and a journey of self-discovery through bestiality :)
