[crookedsmilesnovel]

Crooked Smiles is a 2-part LGBTQIA+ supernatural horror romance series written by H.L. Holmwood, largely presented as novels, which will include insert comic pages within chapters.

Supplementary zines— a mixture of prose and comic— will be published alongside to expand on characters and plot points; the artwork for these is being created by the amazingly talented Kit Buss / @anemonetea

Set in Victorian London, the series follows Kostya, a working class werewolf, and Ivan, a back-alley vampire doctor, as they battle a threat to both themselves and to the unsuspecting humans living alongside their kind.

Kostya is a cocky northern bloke with a chip on his shoulder. Ivan is a bookish, introspective Czech smartarse with lofty goals. Both characters are queer and have physical disabilities.

Be sure to follow for more updates as the project progresses! Volume 1 Kickstarter to be announced...

JUST AAAAHHHH!!!!! ^_^<3<3<3<3 I LOVE THEM AND I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!!!! I MEAN, JUST LOOK AT HOW THE LOVE IS CLEARLY DISPLAYED BETWEEN OZZIE AND FIZZ!!! ^_^<3<3<3 James and Alex were so sweet, especially considering I gave them free range to leave anything cute or funny (if they wanted to), so it seems they went the "Awwww-inducing" route and I'm so glad they did, making it a total surprise! ^_^<3<3<3 I got it in the mail on Saturday, where you can bet that as soon as I took a picture, I sent it to my friends using all caps and a LOT of emojis. ;) ^_^<3<3<3 I'm so happy it finally came! I'm going to put it in my bed room! ^_^<3<3<3<3

'Ehhh... I mean, it is a stupid idea, but if you insist.'

Ivanichek 'Ivan' Vorobyev

Appears 27 years old

5"8

Intelligent, awkward, closed off.

Working out of a dilapidated clinic in the attic of a disused building just off Frying Pan Alley in Spitalfields, Ivan gets by feeding on the sick and infirm whom he is unable to treat.

At odds with his own kind for not fitting their into their stringent society and for being unable to accept the nature of his condition, Ivan strives daily to understand the parameters of what he is and how he might change that. His journey has brought him to studying other supernatural beings more closely... and has brought himself and Kostya into contact.

With innumerable walls up to keep others at a distance, Ivan has struggled to maintain human connections throughout his whole life; and this has certainly not eased throughout his afterlife. But he's never met someone like Kostya before, and finds his attention captured by the other man more and more.
