the patrician is just a guy to me

#havelock vetinari #discworld #doodles #before you ask why just know this #i actively avoid looking at any discworld art book covers included #i specifically buy those hardcovers with graphic design on the front #so any kind of a visual context doesnt exist for me except what my brain sees when im with the guy in the room as i read #so anyway Lord Vetinari is like an old suit and tie guy to me #he is proper arguably a minimalist calm collected and always two steps ahead #he is pushing 50 #doesnt even have to be fifty but I know this in my soul: to be like him you have to have seen life for many decades #his monologue at the end of GG is driving me craaayyyyzayyy #a man that wakes up and does a thing not for fulfilment but because. because its like one of the world truths or some shit #part of me would love to put him in a fancier suit but in men at arms he literally sits on a wooden chair next to the throne #hello?#in his little (huge) garden with his little (huge) stacks of paperwork #and he has a shitty terrier #what a guy #this granpapi is my chewtoy

One of the fun things about lore usually happening earlier in the morning for me is that often I’m a little sleepy, and just kinda say shit without registering what I said.

The other day in Skybound I inadvertently said that Virgil has read Bound by Ancient Magics: “like six times” in the canonically 2 weeks since he found it.

He saw the trashiest romance book ever and something inside his little bird brain was like “mmm, yes, interesting… I will study it in extremis.” And it’s so funny to me

#bound by ancient magics woukd do NUMBERS on booktok #it’d be right up that demographic’s alley honestly #the cover I drew was making fun of old 80’s Fabio books but god #I bet there’s one out there with those modern overly cutesy pastel Icebreaker/Love Hypothesis/whatever minimalist illustration covers #y’all don’t understand how much I want to design and print a fake copy of that book as a prop #my oil painting skills were good in highschool #but not that good lmao #sky bound smp #bound smp #bound smp virgil

Nobody can definitively say the means which lead to the tragic ends of two such beloved public figures. Nobody can name what it was that brought the last Targaryen heir to the throne and the only daughter of House Stark together in the first place. No one knows exactly what happened, not in truth, but people can speculate. And speculate, they do.

A SONG OF INTERVIEWS AND FAKE NEWS: Retrospectives on Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark

#rhaegar targaryen #lyanna stark #asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #pureasoiaf #if they look more minimalist than the others. thats because the magazine covers theyre based on are extremely minimalist lol #thats just how Respected Publications handle the deaths of beloved public figures #prince rhaegar is based on a princess diana cover even tho elia is definitely more princess diana or even lyanna #lyanna is partly based on a few time magazine covers and partly on the same diana cover lmao #its meant to look more true crime ish and less picture perfect nostalgia memorial #originally i was going to make article samples like i did for the arya ones and then i was like. lmao no #i could do a jon centric spread and i have a couple ideas #but i would rather he have his own set of 4 like arya #so. thus. as a result. tosses this at your feet #that being said i prefer rhaelya divorce!verse over a more book timeline modern au #bc its funny to ME #and i have written a little bit of fic for it feat stealth jonrya #but mehhh idk. id have to edit to post #this is not smart or pretty enough to throw into every single possible canon tag. i just want it out of my drafts #hewantshisedits #hewantshisposts #hewantshisaus #hewantshiscontemporaryaus

Honest question for writeblr and readblr here. Why do some people not like book covers with people on them? I'm curious about it, because I've always enjoyed those kinds of covers.

#writeblr #readblr #booklr #genuinely! i am curious #perhaps also because i am a little baffed #i think covers with people on them are fine?#if the people are posed and drawn well and if it's not like. a blank cover with a guy standing on it #and there's an actual background and/or nice framing elements then it's nice #is it just that silhouette/minimalist stuff is in vogue right now?#or is it a genre thing?#there are plenty of nice ways to do covers without people but i just . . . see so many boring canva covers lately #and a nice character cover is like “look! that's Blorbo from The Book!”

love it when i'm in the middle of a task and realise i really can't be bothered to finish it

#was getting stressed out about needing to pack for uni in the autumn #so decided to combat that by reorganising stuff #but consider: i am far from a minimalist and have a small bedroom and wayyy too many books #so my floor is covered in books as i sort through them and i have more boxes to sort through outside my room #and it is half past four and i have had enough #i've been sorting through things for like two and a half hours #on the upside though i have got a box made up of books i will be taking with me #and it will just be the one. no more. i will have an entire library at my disposal.#and turns out i bought the same copy of wilfred owen's complete poems from two different secondhand places at least two years apart #would love to strip everything back and be brutal with things but alas i'm too emotionally attached to stuff for that #and also have a tendency to keep hold of books that i probably will never read bc of guilt for giving them away without reading them #ahhhhhh #fucking moving places you inhabit man #personal #lit talks

An Angel Passing Through Cover Art

Read my short story here:

Archive Of Our Own

Fictionpress

Tumblr post

Oil Spill Photo: Photo by Daniel Olah on Unsplash

-----------------

Read the rest below:

This story was part of my final assignment for the creative writing course that I took in 2022. For a smaller assignment, I had to design a cover for my story. This is what I came up with.

I wanted to try a minimalist cover that was more symbolic instead of too on the nose. It features the silhouette of the main character, fourteen-year-old Claire Baptiste. She's crying tears that fade into an oil spill rainbow (read the story to find out what that is). That's to hint at what she's witnessing. The thing above her head is a neuron cell. These are the cells that send and receive signals from our brains. It is supposed to vaguely resemble a halo (hinting back to the name of the story) and also hints at her mind being tampered with.

I love the font I found for it. It's called Vallium. I was thinking along the lines of delicate and shaky. Seeing as the cover was solid, it would be easy to see a font like that.

It's quite funny that I was drawn to a minimalist design when I'm an artist that loves pattern and detail.
