lemme try this again

Hey Tumblr! I'm writing a book. It's 102k words (and counting) of pure queer fantasy and a year's worth of emotions.

It's about a queer kid finding community and support, and then stepping up to defend the people they love. And it's about falling in love and finding yourself, and it's about trust, and connection, and responsibility, and trying to do good in the world. It is also about gay.

Blurb thing:

Destiny has always been alone, self-isolating so that no one will find out about her magic, the same power that she watched a little girl dragged away for nine years ago. Then she meets Vida, a beautiful fae whose kiss sparks something inside her, and Destiny chooses to follow her.

She's not expecting Vida's family to be a werewolf pack. Or that they'll be so welcoming— she was told werewolves are monsters, after all. She's definitely not expecting them to become her own family.

But when Destiny begins to change, it's the wolves who accept him for who he is. And it's the wolves who are the first to see Destiny's magic and swear to protect them, no matter what. And it's up to Destiny to decide what that looks like.

Even if it means changing the world.

(yes the pronoun shifts in the almost-last paragraph were intentional)

And now a quote:

“Don’t you ever want to do something you’re not supposed to? Love the wrong way, be the wrong person, want the wrong things?”

If this sounds like your cup of tea, rb and let me know! I'm not sure when I'll start posting it, there's still a few edits I need to get done, but encouragement will definitely make that happen sooner~

🧛🏻𝑺𝑰𝑵 𝑴𝑰𝑫𝑶 [𝑫𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑷𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒔𝒆🏰]

🔎𝑨𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 “𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆🔥”

1️⃣ “Flame🔥” was inspired by Schubert‘s ’Devil(Erlkönig)‘, which is a metaphor for my deep anxiety, represented as being chased by the devil👹.

2️⃣ “Flame🔥” was the first track to be composed, setting the thematic tone for the entire album.

3️⃣ This burning building is from a video I created using AI🧑🏻‍💻, and it captures the atmosphere I envisioned when I was composing the song🎶

—a scene of immense chaos where everything I once believed in becomes meaningless and burns to ash🕯️.

4️⃣ Which song from my album do you wanna see as a video? Leave a comment below! 📝

I would love to make more stuff with her. She's Denise the strawberry tiger. Someone so ambitious and ready take on the world in this small town. She's a shortstack with big dreams.

I want to draw her up more after this. Maybe clean up the design.

Hello!

I’m Enola M. Douglas, and I’m thrilled to share the heart of my debut novel, Whisked Away, the first book in the Jewels of the Nine Kingdoms series.

What’s Whisked Away about?

Artwork by @sayuri-liu

Imagine this:

When Princess Reiyana unexpectedly presents as an Omega at age twenty, everything changes. Once a Beta with dreams of love and adventure, she’s suddenly a political prize coveted by Alphas from across the Nine Kingdoms.

Enter Prince Kaelendrin and his half-brother, Prince Alarik of Asadia, two fierce and captivating Alphas who compete for her hand in a royal tournament. But it’s not just their strength or charm that shakes Reiyana—it’s the way they stir something deeper, something she thought was forbidden, within her.

Caught in a world where power belongs to the privileged few and an Omega’s position is the most perilous of all, Reiyana must navigate dangerous alliances, uncover hidden truths, and reclaim control over her fate. Her journey is one of self-discovery, slow-building passion, and the courage to forge her own destiny.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Slow-burn, why-choose omegaverse romantasy!

• A richly woven world with secrets, power struggles, and strong characters.

• A heroine who challenges the odds and learns to embrace her true self.

• A focus on shared love, while respecting personal boundaries (1000% consensual relationships and no M/M romance between the brothers).

A Little About Me:

I’ve always been captivated by stories that transport readers to faraway lands, where love and courage intertwine with destiny. Whisked Away was born from my love of nuanced characters, intricate relationships, and exploring themes of freedom, identity, and choice.

This book is for anyone who’s ever felt caught between expectations and desires and dreamed of breaking free.

Follow Along:

If you love romantasy, slow-burn tension, or just want to see how Whisked Away unfolds, I’d love to connect! I’ll be sharing snippets, behind-the-scenes peeks, and updates about the Jewels of the Nine Kingdoms series right here on Tumblr.

Thank you for letting me share my world with you. I’m so excited for this journey, and I hope Whisked Away resonates with you as much as it does with me.

Whisked Away is coming at the end of May 2025! Let’s escape together.

Would you date a Duke who thinks he's in an action-adventure story rather than a bad romance novel?!

Indie Author Update# 38

I broke through the wall! Woot woot! I knew it would happen eventually. It has been a more productive week than I've had in a while. I'm quickly tying up loose ends that I know will have to be rewritten again. But what's important is just to get it down on the page.

@author-a-holmes had some good advice on how to combat writers block, by doing 20 minute writing prompts. To keep working your creative/writing muscle without the added pressure of a fully written story. I do them on occasion to get out of Moira's mind set or just to dip my toes into a completely different genre. Last week I ended up writing an exploration piece about a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by monsters and government experimental super soldiers spliced with said monster's dna. Sci-fi meets dystopian fantasy.

I also finished setting up my ARC of Phoenix Caged's distribution. They will all be sent out via book funnel on Saturday. I'm excited for book two to reach more readers.

Next week I've gotta keep writing book 3 (fingers crossed i finish it), post more about the upcoming release of Phoenix Caged and go to bed earlier.

Thank you @vicemag for interviewing me about my book Romantic Lowlife Fantasies !

Vice was the first magazine to interview me about my photography back in 2010 (and how my sister and I "borrowed" a child mannequin we were obsessed with from a local tuxedo shop to take to my Grandmother's birthday party). What a cool full circle moment to talk to them again 13 years later as we've both evolved. Swipe through for highlights and headlines from now and then
