Outstanding work by talented people 🌟✨

Bound: isn't a kingdom by @garagepaperback

Dust jacket and end paper art by: @kk1smet Typeset and bound by: me, @phoenixortheflame.

“Pride must suffer pain.” - Hans Christian Andersen A fairytale retelling featuring: barnacles, pine trees and coarse beaches in Maine, a heart-attack, hair-pulling, fireworks, and loving someone whether or not it's enough, whether or not there's a real chance to.

When I first read isn't a kingdom, it was still anon as part of this year's HD Hurt/Comfort Fest, but I knew - I just knew - it was the work of Silly Goose Supreme @garagepaperback, and the next thing I knew I was banging on her front door (DMs) to scream about the puddle - ney, salty tide pool - she hath reduced me to.

At the same time, I was banging on @kk1smet's door, because while I had already decided I was going to bind the fic, getting an artist to collab with me on the project would be not only a super fun way to spend my time, but also be the thing to make garage fully lose her mind.

Two months later, and garage has finally received her copy of the bound fic (!!!!!!!).

A few details on the bind:

This was my first time doing a lot of things, like using colour in the typeset, gold foiling, and hand-sewing the end bands (shout out to @maleekamolscreates for holding my hand through the latter).

I'm really happy with the final bind - and how everything came together so beautifully. I might share a bit of the BTS of the collaborative process between @kk1smet and me, if that's something y'all would be interested in. It was really fun and energizing to jam on this with someone, and I could not have asked for a better collaborator. Thank you, K!

Do u have a Spotify playlist for Drarry that inspire you that I would care to share? 🤭

Not necessarily!

For The Boy from the Piano Shop, I had a playlist of classical music and piano. But generally, I try to listen to music that matches the mood of the chapters I'm working on.

As I wait for intermittedly for your chapter updates I’m rereading the boy from the piano shop and I wanted to say my gosh do you write so well holiday chapters. The Christmas chapters in this book feel like this couple be a yearly holiday read. They’re prolonged, special and ripe with traditions and they feel very quietly mature. Very demure and mindful of you will.

I hope in the coming books (/series) you write for Drarry this is is selfishly, a regular occurrence (could be idk Fourth of July or Halloween season for example), bc it’s so lush and wonderful when you put your all into drarry’s takes on them <3

Thank you 🥺❤️

I've never thought of myself as a particularly good “holiday writer”, but I'm glad you think so! It might be because I love Christmas, haha!

I definitely want to write a Halloween one-shot in the future 💕

The chapter with this quote is out now 👀💙🌟

Draco had looked at him and wondered if it was worth growing up and meeting new people if he would never love any of them as much as he loved Harry.

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous 💙

Posted a new chapter on my Drarry artwork collection! | View full update here.

Every month (or every other month, really), I draw some drarry microcreations based on discord prompts here. This month's theme is epistolary, where you’ll find some prissy Draco, a three-day stubbled Harry, and an owl named Wuzz.

New drarry fanart/schedule of updates in my archive will vary because yours truly rolls like a tumbleweed
