So if you’ve read the Red Winter trilogy and liked it, the author is having a kickstarter right now for a special limited edition omnibus 🥳 The cover art is absolutely gorgeous! Go back it so we can reach the ultimate stretch goal and bring all of the goodies home lol 🫣

red winter by annette marie

«you’ll forget me someday, little miko.» his voice was even hoarser than hers, rough and coated in a hint of an animal growl.

«i’ll never forget you,» she told him. «i’ll remember you to my last day.»

«do you promise?»

her heart gave an odd little flutter. «yes, i promise.»

in case anyone needs it like i did, a week or so ago i needed something to get over the post-acftl slump and got recommend to me "red winter" by annette marie for having some similarities (the couples dynamic did remind me of evajacks) and i just finished and even though i didn't like it as much, worked so well (and has a much better ending) and now i need something else to get over this new slump lmao

its a really fun story with japanese mythology and yes, its slowburn too

the only downside imo is the ugly cover. but there's gorgeous inside art that kind of makes up for it

just leaving the rec in case someone is looking for something like this

Rereading this series for the 3rd time and it's still the absolute best. I love Emi, Shiro, and Yumei. They're one of my favorite trios in media. I'd kill to see this series animated, or at least made into a full length comic or manga at least

Manifesting that the artist doing The Guild Codex comic series over on webtoon decides to do more of Annette Marie's stories as comics, especially Red Winter.

Seriously I need more of this series, especially since there's really no fanfiction for it that can quench my Red Winter thirst.❤❄

I would pay good money for an animated series of the Red Winter Trilogy.

I mean. Look at my babies.

Look how beautiful and powerful they are.

Darrow and Virginia being equally obssessed with each other is everything to me.

Virginia gets territorial, feels instant lust and love the moment she sees him and he is the only one awakening these feelings in her. Meanwhile Darrow cannot conceive that non-Virginia people could have romantic feelings for him, so his every bit of romantic love is hers only, he is her devoted bitch, her biggest stan, no questions.

It's majestic, it's intense, just absolute perfection, I stan 😤

Talk about your fanfics ask:

1, 3, 9, 12

Thank you for asking this! I am always delighted to talk about my stories.

What story (stories?) are you writing rn that you’ll most likely publish next?

Probably the ever-elusive original novel, honestly. After my current fanfic projects, I don't have any more planned, though that doesn't mean I won't get walloped with a new idea soon. But I'm going to start a new arc of A Lot Can Happen In Twenty Years with a completely new character as the bad guy soon, so I guess that sort of counts since that story is more of a catchall for shorts set in the same universe anyway.

3. What tropes do you like writing about the most?

Answered here.

9. Top three fics you’ve written (in author’s opinion)?

AUGH. How can I pick just three? But...if I HAVE to choose...

First place MUST go to The War of the Ring, my massive LOTR rewrite and probably, if you applied thumbscrews, the story I'd admit is my actual favourite out of all the ones I've written.

Second and third place are a lot harder for me to decide on, because my favourite fic is usually the one I'm writing right now! I managed to narrow things down a bit by picking a favourite from each of the fandoms I've written for and comparing those, but that only managed to reduce the number of contenders to five.

Help.

You know what, you're getting all five (in no particular order because IT'S TOO HARD TO PICK OKAY).

Oath of Fealty, a Dune ghost story that I'm very fond of because I imitated the original's made-up chapter quotes and it involves one of my favourite characters in the novel! Book canon, but it's canon compliant for the first movie too.

Kad'au, one of the entries in my Cin Vhetin series, featuring Obi-Wan raising Luke, Jedi-Mandalorian bonding, grief, healing, Jedi history, and hope.

Bullets and Reactors, a fix-it fic for The Hunt for Red October which largely consists of a very tired submarine captain dealing with the aftermath of Shenanigans while trying to make sure that none of the self-sacrificing idiots he's acquired dies before he can get them all home.

Our Fathers Lied, canon-compliant Spider-man 3 angst. Mostly on this list because the title is taken from a terribly beautiful and grievous poem by Rudyard Kipling that fits the main character so perfectly that I almost couldn't believe it when I found it.

Kintsukuroi, a Bucky-centric fic about grief, hope, and picking up the broken pieces of what you had to build something new. Also features Shuri being awesome.

So...yeah, that's a lot more than you asked for, but I couldn't pick just one, darnit!

12. Write another line in your WIP (rude, productive, but okay).

Oy! Rude! (Just kidding.) Here's the line:

Someone will need to turn the power back on as soon as he's contained, Gwen had said about Max, but Harry was starting to have serious doubts about whether Max could be contained.

Ask game is here.

I got my prints from @vkelleyart today!! The freebies were such a lovely surprise 😍

[creative-hanyou-girl]

I think being a fan of InuYasha has awakened in me a craving for mythology series where it's always an adventure focusing on a human befriending/falling in love with a mythical person from the mythology. Doesn't matter what kind of media it is, if it's like InuYasha, I'm like "sign me up".

Like seriously, my favorite series aside from InuYasha are literally Kamisama Kiss, The Red Winter Trilogy, the Guild Codex: Demonized (not exactly mythology per se, but it's still a human x mythical person adventure series) and now I'm about to watch the Kdrama Tale of the Nine-Tails on Netflix. Literally InuYasha as a series has awakened in me a craving for the mythology fiction genre and I can't even be mad about it.

Hi everyone, I hope you are safe and well! I haven't been drawing for a looong time but I'm finally back with the first sketch of the Tomoe from Kamisama I promised! I'm already coloring the digital version with background and will post it soon.

I need to tell you that I am reading Red Winter by Annette Marie, which is totally amazing and sleep depriving and gives off a lot of Kamisama and Inuyasha vibes. Very much recommended 🩵

Since planet of apes trilogy is the winning vote and I am in the process of watching the third movie. Let’s start with small headcannons;

My reason as to why reason behind Caesar motives on peace and wasn’t keen on fighting the humans was not only for his kinds safety but also because will (his dad) was a calm and caring human.

I read somewhere that in the books Koba’s mom was a mistreated circus animal. Which made me think that maybe after Koba was born she may have tried to protect him and run away with koba. Like when bright eyes did for Caesar when he was born. But it ended with the same outcome.

In the first movie when Maurice mentioned he learned ASL from when he from time in the circus. I believe that he must have been either taught it by a caretaker working in the circus or he observed it from everyone that walked past his enclosure.

I feel like it is a long stretch but I feel that if raka was still alive and managed to make it to the second movie. He would have been a good bodyguard to Cornelia especially after Blue eyes, and Cornelius were born.

Cornelia and Lake would gossip about random things if a day feels particularly long. It would range from medical remedies to who is dating. But I believe it mostly depends on if they’re close or not.

I haven’t seen much in the first two movies but I like to think that Cornelia’s personality must have been the most sweetest and loving to all. But also she must have been stubborn and resilient especially towards Caesar. Since in the book it stated that she had challenged some of what he said at the beginning of their courtship.

Lastly winter is a character I don’t know much about but as far as I have seen. He must have been either easily influenced into helping like red donkey or winter may have been scared into helping the soldiers like he said. But I feel like the second option has not much solid ground to stand on.

Thank you for reading!! Be sure to send me more headcannons!

okay i know we're only at the start of fall but time passes faster than you think it will (see we went from the start of september to past mid september in approximately two days) and what if. what if i made rereading the imperial radch trilogy another winter tradition. rewatch lord of the rings with the fam and reread the imperial radch trilogy.

is 'reading the left hand of darkness for the first time (and then immediately rereading it)' good enough reason to do an imperial radch reread when i just did a reread ... wait, was it really back in december/january? i was gonna say 'sources say: possibly' but no im def putting that on my list. i already have Thoughts and im delighted

list features authors/books that i love (T. Kingfisher, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Ursula K. Le Guin, the collections from the British Library Tales of the Weird, etc.), but also a few that i don't like and some that i have not yet read ;

if upon seeing that list the first novel you check out is by Stephen King's you have not understood the assignment ;

not all of those are strictly horror stories, some are 100% science fiction (Brian W. Aldiss' Hothouse for instance).
