#thank you silly phang!!!

[just-miru]

I will pay you to drink water. do you accept cash or rock?

!!!

rock i like rock!!

[thebibliosphere]

I am re-reading Phangs - again - and it's still a lovely, comforting read. The writing style is easy to enjoy, the dry humour and pointed social critique is *chef's kiss* and I want to bundle up Vlad just as much as I wanted to since before the book came out. All that aside, Nathan is just so Damn Attractive. Damn steady and calm confidence and caring! I am v happy Vlad got to climb that man as one ought to.

Continuing on, the 'Nathan suppressed a groan. There would need to be some seriously attractive benefits to this position coming forthwith, or Nathan was going to turn tail and run' part made me cackle out loud enough to scare my sleeping cat into wakefullness. Oh Nathan. If you knew.

------

Thank you so much for such a wonderful message, this really made my day! I love that you love Nathan as much as I do, and my sad goth boy Vlad.

I'm also glad I could make you laugh with my silly puns 😂

[snakesinsocks2005]

wishing you the happiest of birthdays, silly snakey :3

Thank you bestie phang!!

[generouslyandrogynousdragon]

Less than 10 hours to go, and Phangs has increased its vote share once more. This is honestly incredible, Destiel and Vlathula fans alike have put up an amazing fight so far.

(Also, we made it to over 1000 notes without (much) clownery, yay!)

To repeat what Joy has said above, a huge thanks to all of the fans - on both sides - who were normal about this poll, and managed to understand that it's just a silly little Tumblr poll, and not serious enough to be worth harassing anyone over. I'm proud of you all, let's make sure we keep it civil for the remainder of the poll too.

Since Joy (@thebibliosphere) thinks Destiel will win, I want to be scientific about this.

Now whichever you pick, y'all be kind to each other in my notes, y'hear?

(And yes, I'm fully aware that this is likely going to kill my notifications. But isn't that half the fun?)

Floating on a Feeling: One Night at Rainforest Camp

After our amazing first day and night at the aptly-named Elephant Camp, we woke up raring to go for the second and third days of our adventure with Elephant Hills in Khao Sok National Park.

Elephant Camp, with its luxury tents set in the jungle, was already quite the departure from reality. Rainforest Camp, the sister property nestled even deeper into the wilderness, took an even greater leap into getting away from it all — no internet, no phone signal, not even solid ground beneath your feet — the twenty tents that make up the camp all float peacefully atop Cheow Larn Lake.

But first, we had to get there. Waving goodbye to Elephant Hills, we piled into decommissioned Thai military vehicles and made our way to a local market in Takhun. I’ve seen more than my fair share of markets in Thailand, but I still enjoyed having a brief wander and stocking up on snacks before the next leg of our journey.

Next up, a quick stop at the Ratchaprapha Dam, where we got our first glance of Cheow Lan Lake and started to learn the insanely fascinating history of the region.

And then it was onto the lake, where we hopped into a traditional long tail boat to sightsee.

After a gorgeous ride admiring the jungle and the towering limestone karsts that define the lake, we caught sight of our final destination — Rainforest Camp!

so distracted by our welcome drinks, we could only manage a silly iPhone selfie

Opened in 2011, Rainforest Camp is still one of the only floating tented camps in the world. Powered by solar and wind energy and using a unique waste management system, the camp is a model of low-impact accommodation.

And we had the wild neighbors to prove it. We might have left the elephants behind at Elephant Camp, but we still had monkeys prancing in the jungle behind our camp and fish darting around and below our tents. And there was way more going on than what we were lucky to see — just lookwhat gets caught on Elephant Hill’s hidden cameras!

Inside the tents, however, was a human-only zone. Somehow, thought I didn’t think it would be possible, I loved these tents even more than the ones we’d spent the previous evening in.

And we got right down to the business of enjoying them.

After a few hours of chill time, those who wanted to join for the afternoon’s jungle trek were rounded up and set off in boats bound for the shore.

As we touched down on land again, our guide began to elaborate on the fraught history of the land beneath our feet.

The story began in 1944, when a deadly epidemic wiped out almost the entire population of the Khao Sok region. The village became known as Ban Sop, or Village of the Dead, lying in the shadow of a nearby mountain known as Khao Sop, or Corpse Mountain. The morbid name was later rebranded to Khao Sok.

In 1961, the region was forever changed by construction of the 401, the first and only highway connecting Phang Nga and Surat Thani Provinces. Needless to say, the untouched wilderness of Khao Sok suffered.

In the 1970’s, tragedy struck Khao Sok again. In Thailand, October 6th, 1976 will always be remembered with sadness — it was the day of the military government’s fatal attack on student protesters at Thammasat University in Bangkok. The forty one recorded deaths are suspected, in fact, to be a low estimate. In response to the massacre, hundreds of students fled to Khao Sok, fearing for their lives. The deep, untouched forest provided cover for the newly-formed insurgency groups who buried explosives and patrolled the area with gunfire. The very caves we were hiking through provided shelter from air raids by the Thai military.

The rebels formed an unexpected sanctuary for the environment — they may have been aiming to keep the army away, but they also scared off loggers, hunters and miners for the seven years they controlled the area. In 1982, the government changed hands, and the students slowly returned to their lives. Allegedly, the last of the rebels left Khao Sok in 1989.

Thanks to the unintended protection of this unlikely ally, Khao Sok staved off development and exploitation long enough for the National Parks Division to take notice. With many rare species of flora and fauna (including the spiders I was very unwillingly sharing the previously mentioned caves with), Khao Sok was announced Thailand’s 22nd National Park in 1980.

But the area wasn’t done changing. Around the same time Khao Sok was applying for National Park status, EGAT (the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand) discovered that Khao Sok was the largest watershed in southern Thailand. And so, before objections could be raised by the area’s newfound status, a massive portion of the National Park was intentionally flooded to create a 165km2 reservoir for generating hydro-electricity. Today, this reservoir is known as Cheow Larn Lake.

The flooding was a tragedy for wildlife. Many animals, including elephants, were forced into islands created by the rising water levels, and EGAT attempted the largest rescue in Thailand’s history… which was, unfortunately, largely unsuccessful. Of 1,364 “rescued” animals, the majority died of stress and the rest were relocated into areas overpopulated by other refugees.

It was a rocky, controversy and scandal-paved road that led Khao Sok to where it is today — 739 square kilometers of protected land that is a popular eco-tourism destination, and a sustainable source of hydro-electric power for much of Southern Thailand.

Back at camp, we marveled at an absolute stunner of a sunset and the fact that we could leap off our porch into its reflection in the water, if we wanted to. It had been the perfect day.

At Elephant Camp, the lush surroundings hid the fact that there was indeed a highway not quite too far away and at night,  you could hear the occasional truck passing by the main road. But here a Rainforest Camp, this, this was pure peace.

In the morning, we sprung out of our tents for one final breakfast. I have to give kudos to Elephant Hills for being super accommodating to various diets — I had marked on our intake form that I eat no seafood and there was always plenty of variety for me, and others in the group with special dietary needs were also well tended to.

After, we had a bit of free time to go for a final adventure — a kayak down a snaking arm of the lake. We were kicking ourselves the entire time for not reserving the four day tour, which would have tacked on another night at Rainforest Camp, along with 24 hours to pretty much just kick around at your leisure. If I have one piece of advice for anyone heading to this particular experience, it’s to make room in your budget and itinerary for one more night!

At around 20,000B (about $560) for three days, this experience is not for those on a shoestring budget. However, when you consider the included transfers especially, and use Khao Sok as a stopover between Thailand’s two coasts, it represents pretty great value. The only things not included are soft drinks, alcoholic drinks, tips, souvenirs, and extras like the foot massages offered at Elephant Camp (heck yes I had one!). The included transfers will pick you up and drop you off door-to-door in Phuket, Khao Lak, Phang Nga, Krabi, Surat Thani or even from Koh Samui.

When to come? Well, basically, whenever you have a trip planned to Thailand. “Green season,” as Elephant Hills optimistically refers to Khao Sok’s monsoon, lasts from May to October, and comes with cooler temperatures, lush green foliage, and higher chances of spotting wildlife. The least busy months are May, June, September and October, so book then if you want to have the place to yourself!

We had so much fun on this trip that we made a little video! I’ve hardly been giving my GoPro HERO3+ the loving it deserves lately, and so I was super excited to bring it along on this trip. It’s hard to switch back and forth from photo to video mode (for me at least!) but we got some really fun shots and I laugh every time I watch this video — and not just because an elephant tried to eat my camera.

As filled with natural beauty as Thailand can be, it can also be a chaotic and overwhelming place. Our days in Khao Sok were so refreshing and recharging, I left feeling more connected with nature and myself than I had in months.

It was a reminder of something I wish I didn’t have to be reminded of so often — sometimes there’s nothing more important in the world than to unplug, disconnect, and listen to water lapping against your tent, monkeys playing in the trees, your best friend laughing at a story, a paddle hitting the surface of a lake, or best of all — the rare and beautiful sound of nothing.

And with that, we were back to home sweet home — Koh Tao!

I was a guest of Elephant Hills in order to write this review. As always, you receive my honest opinions and thorough recommendations regardless of who is footing the bill.

Special Announcement!

If you follow me on Facebook or on Instagram, you’ve probably already heard my big announcement: I’m going to Bali!

Best of all? You can come with me! I vowed that I wasn’t going to travel anywhere in March… but then I got an offer that was just too good to refuse. I’m incredibly excited to be attending an immersive coding retreat with The Institute of Code from March 3-13th. For ten days we’ll be staying in a gorgeous villa, waking up to poolside yoga, digging into some delicious website creation, and exploring Bali on our breaks! After years of having to turn to a developer for every little issue on my blog, I cannot wait to feel empowered to just do it myself!

Want to join? (Who wouldn’t?) There are still spaces available for the retreat I’m attending, so check out the details here and shoot me an email if you have any questions. Ahhhhh… I literally cannot wait!

[just-miru]

today I offer you a badly cropped kitty

EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

[just-miru]

if you suffer without drinking water I'll steal your t helper cells (affectionately)

droinking my oiter!!!

[mel-addams]

Look, I haven’t even properly read* Phangs yet, but I can already tell** it’s going to become my bone marrow. I cried in chapter one because I already love all of the trio so damn much just from the snippets and such you’ve posted. You did good, Joy, and YOU DESERVE NICE THINGS

So I made a silly comic, figured out how to distill your taste into an outfit I could illustrate and you could emulate if you want, and spent a bit of time figuring out how to draw your delightful grin. <3

*(past the published version of chapters you’ve posted previews of, ‘cause I plan to read fluff, then flirting, then sparkle, but only after I’ve finished my dang gloves, which I can get back to, now that this is done >.>)

**I’m already starting to evolve as a person because of the trio, and cannot possibly thank you enough. Like, how am I supposed to sit here and yell at Vlad to value himself more when he occasionally does THE SAME SHIT I DO...and then try to refute my own good argument? I cannot. Infinite loop error. (I was personally targeted in the Halloween AU fic when Sue put his art on the walls. I once haggled myself down on what to potentially charge for a theoretical commission by half WHILE TALKING TO MYSELF OUT LOUD TO MY PARTNER, TICKING IT DOWN THREE TIMES WITHIN A SINGLE SENTENCE. All while insisting artist friends must charge no less than minimum wage, no matter how “slow” they are, and that taking “too long” means CHARGE MORE)

I’m supposed to be working on making gloves to dress my skeleton up like Vlad for some skelfies once I get my physical copies of Phangs, but this idea struck me at work two weeks ago and I had to. (This was supposed to be a silly little sketch for the sake of the pun. It…escalated. Several times. You can, perhaps, see why I was drawn to Phangs.)

You can find links to the various versions of Hunger Pangs by @thebibliosphere​​​​​ here! https://joydemorra.com/books/

[Notice: Phangs does not cause literal lightning strikes. If such are seen while reading Phangs, it is a mere coincidence, and I hope you are safe, comfy, and (if you so choose) able to watch and/or listen at your leisure. Side effects of reading Phangs can include but are not limited to: happy tears; sad tears; catharsis; validation (queer, disability (mental and/or physical), polyamory, spice); learning new things about yourself]

A couple closeups, as some details are hard to see downsized:

Those are rainbow glitter, open-toed, victorian-style boots. With red sole for flair. (I am terribly sorry I couldn’t find a real pair quite like this, most of the similar open-toed boots have an open heel, too.) Plus the hatband made glittery as well, for aesthetics and matching.

It’s glitter all the way down, y’all. (The highlights on her hair and lips were actually just the lineart brush, but it’s textured enough that, with the highlights’ bright layer style, it ended up also looking like glitter. The nail polish and bright “freckles” are deliberately rainbow glitter, though. Also metal is hard, but I had to draw her finger splints after I realized I could and she said it’d be cool.)

[just-miru]

I made you a swan will cause the swan post inspired me

SILLY PHANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANK!!!!

i am putting it in my shirt pocket, close to my silly heart

[thebibliosphere]

I just want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who supports my work. Because of how well Phangs is still doing, almost two years after its debut, I was able to go out tonight to the appliance store and replace our broken washing machine. Amazingly, they had one in stock and it's arriving Saturday.

We still have to put it on store credit, but thanks to everyone who supports my patreon, my ko-fi, and who buys my books and honestly keeps the hype train running (y'all are way better at promo than me!) we were able to do so without the floods of tears and financial panic that was our daily existence for a very long time. I was even able to help Mothman buy some parts for his new computer, which is a truly wonderful feeling, because I can't remember the last time we bought something for him.

The last seven years were basically spent funneling everything we had into keeping me alive and doing emergency repairs on the house. It was nice to buy him something for a change.

Anyway.

Thank you. You've made my world so much better, and I'm glad you seem to enjoy my silly words. I'm going to go write more of them.

Hello! My name is Joy Demorra, I’m an official 2x International Best Selling Author, Vampire Romancer and Shitpost Producer Extraordinaire, and yes, I am the vampire nipple erotica editor who just wants to rest , thanks for asking!

You may know me from such posts as the infamous Crucifix Nail Nipples (x), Robin Williams Punching Death Eaters Dream (x) or one of my many, many, many vampire shitposts, chronic illness/advocacy posts, or my ADHD posts. However you found me, I hope you enjoy your time here. Please have patience if you are sending me messages either here or somewhere else on the Internet. I am but a humble smut peddler, peddling my weres. I am also multiply disabled with at least one genetic disability and several chronic illnesses and mental health issues that make keeping up with a high traffic blog very difficult. I never expected to become a hub for shitposts and chronic illness/ADHD resources, but here we are!

If you ever get tired of seeing my personal health posts, you may wish to blacklist the following tags: ‘#chronic health tag’ & ‘#chronic health tag: teeth’, that way I can bitch and moan into the void and you don’t have to read it if you don’t want to.

Due to Tumblr successfully tricking me into becoming a professional author, I have several hundred ongoing projects at once, most of them vampire themed. 

My international best selling debut novel, Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites is available for purchase on Amazon, iTunes, Kobo, Barnes & Noble and several other places still updating as I type. It was supposed to be a short paranormal polyamorous satirical romance featuring a vampire, a werewolf and all other manner of creatures that go bump in the night, but has since morphed into a paranormal polyamorous gaslamp fantasy romance series with potentially 5-6 books planned. Don’t ask how, I do not know. Also yes, ha ha, I’m so bisexual I couldn’t even pick a genre. 

The series follows the antics of three main characters, a disabled and partially deaf werewolf known as Nathan Northland, a 400yo mad-scientist-dandy-styled vampire named Vlad Blutstein, and Ursula, who goes only by the mysterious moniker, The Lady Ursula. It’s set in a pseudo-regency-steampunkish gaslamp era, and the characters inhabit a world much like our own, excepting of course the fantastical ideas of magic being real, vampires living among us, and government bodies being held accountable for their actions.

The book will also be available in paperback, and will also come in two editions: one with the sex scenes for those who like a little bite with their fangs, and one without, for those who like a little bit more fluff. Links coming soon! There’s also already a fandom tag, which is #Phangs and #Phangdom and because I’m a weak creature and easily lead, AU fanfic on my Ao3 under original works, most of which is Adult 18+ in nature.

You can read more about my other ongoing works by clicking on my blog Welcome Page (x), and also at www.joydemorra.com for any upcoming news and announcements. Alternatively you can subscribe to my Newsletter (x) which I do promise I’ll update soon.

Given the nature of my work, if you are under the age of 18, I do ask that you respect my boundaries and refrain from interacting with anything on my blog that is labelled 18+

I try very hard to keep my blog as safe for everyone as I can and respect your boundaries. No mean feat when you’re known across the Internet as “the crucifix vampire nipple lady” :P

If you need me to tag something for trigger purposes, no matter how silly you think I might think it is, please let me know, I will be more than happy to do so. Also while I do try very hard to be conscientious of the things I do and say, sometimes I will inevitably make mistakes or misspeak, and it is important to me that it be brought to my attention so I might correct my behavior and apologize. So please don’t be afraid to tell me when I’ve got my head up my ass. I make no pretenses at being a good person. I’m just trying my damnedest not to be an awful one.

Other places you can find me on the Internet include:

Patreon! (x) where things are about to get a drastic shake up.

Twitter (x) where I occasioanlly yell at clouds and retweet all the funny and poignant things you lot say.

Facebook (x) where I mostly hide and don’t interact with anyone because it’s Facebook, but will be more active once book stuff starts going live.

Twitch (x) where I occasionally stream surviving the apocalypse in the frostbitten world of Frostpunk.

Ao3 (x) where I post my fanfic, sometimes even of my own work because I am weak-willed and easily led astray.

I also have a Ko-fi (x) where I cross post my Patreon work for anyone who doesn’t like Patreon. It also functions are my general tip jar, so if you like what I do here and would like to help me keep doing it, tips are deeply appreciated though by no means expected. I do what I do on tumblr primarily for love, and I’ll keep doing it for as long as I can, for as long as I’m capable.

Thank you for reading this far, and remember, take care of yourselves and each other. You’re more important than you’ll ever truly know. 

[thebibliosphere]

New decade, new follower milestone, and the theme going forward is “that ADHD mood” (x) apparently.

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, I figured it was getting annoying every month, but 40,000 seems like a good number to welcome all the new folk, post some updates, and say how thankful I am for everyone who has been with me over the last half decade since my blog went viral and turned my life upside down in the best way possible. I know most of you came for the funny shitposts and found yourselves with an unexpected frontrow seat to watching someone repeatedly nearly die from an unknown illness, and I know that can’t have been much fun to watch, but thank you for being here and staying with me. Your support and kindess has been invaluable, and I am sincere when I say you are part of the reason I am still here, both on this blog and in this world. Without your compassion and support over the last five years I know I wouldn’t have made it, and for that you have my eternal gratitude and I will spend the rest of my life trying everyday to pay it forward. Thank you.

And now that I’ve got the serious/sappy stuff out the way, on with the fun stuff!

[thebibliosphere]

Last month’s collective mood was apparently “no one knows where their phone is, oh wait I’m holding it”.

Hi, I’m the vampire nipple erotica editor who just wants to rest. This is my welcome/navigational post for my blog. Clickable links are in bold for ease of navigation. (Recommended listening for this life blog: https://youtu.be/zzg4yACP4nE)

My name is Joy, I’m a Scottish born writer and editor currently manifesting in the American Midwest with my husband, affectionately known to tumblr as ETD. If you’re here for puns, smut, and generally relentless vampire shit posting, then you’re in the right place.

Please have patience if you are sending me asks or IMs. I am but a chronically ill humble smut peddler, peddling my weres, and never expected to have a high traffic blog. I’m just making this up as I go along, and your patience for my limitations is appreciated <3

**If you are here to ask me about how I became an editor, or if you’d like to hire me, please check out my FAQ and my Editing Services page. Thank you!***

Due to tumblr tricking me into becoming a professional writer, I’m currently working on several projects, most of which are vampire related, for some bizarre reason I can’t quite figure out.

The most well known is Hunger Pangs which is currently available for pre-order over on my Patreon page, and eventually Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other retailers to be confirmed. Cause that’s right, I took that shit post and somehow managed to turn it into a fully formed queer-polyamorous-paranormal-satirical-romance novel featuring vampires, werewolves, and punching undead fascists, set in a pseudo-regency-steampunk era setting. (It wasn’t intended to be as politically relevant as it turned out, but the world took a nose dive after I started writing it so here we are.)

If you would like to read a fairly concise summary of what it’s about, you can find one Here. By request there are two canon versions of the book, one which contains explicit sexual content, and one which does not, for those who like a little more fluff with their fangs.

The book will eventually be available in e-book, paperback, and audio book format. I also have a small amount of limited edition hardback covers left for pre-order on my patreon. There’s also already a fandom tag, which is #Phangs and #Phangdom and because I’m a weak creature and easily lead, AU fanfic on my Ao3 under original works, most of which is Adult 18+ in nature.

Along with Phangs, I am also working on several other projects including a gritty historical Scottish romance novella (additional extract), based on a pun, a pun based wlw bakery romance (additional extract), a pun based Scottish werewolf romance, (have you worked out the common factor yet) and a contemporary Scottish rom-com featuring shirtless Scotsmen with questionable morals, based on irate ramblings, for which you will also find a NSFW excerpt on my AO3. It’s the one called, “The Devil Went Down On Georgia” for anyone wondering.

Oh also, the vampire wedding planner romcom, because I have apparently lost complete control of my life.

I’m surprisingly okay about it tbh.

Also yes, Most Girls is now an official thing in the works too. I have a plot draft pinned to my wall.

All of my work is tagged appropriately, with anything that is 18+ being placed under a cut and tagged as #NSFW or #NSFW Text for ease of blacklisting if you would like avoid it.

If you are under the age of 18, I do ask that you respect my boundaries and refrain from interacting with anything on my blog that is labelled 18+. I try very hard to keep my blog as safe for everyone as I can, and respect your boundaries. No mean feat when you’re known across the Internet as “the crucifix vampire nipple lady” :P

If you need me to tag something for trigger purposes, no matter how silly you think I might think it is, please let me know, I will be more than happy to do so. Also while I do try very hard to be conscientious of the things I do and say, sometimes I will inevitably make mistakes or misspeak, and it is important to me that it be brought to my attention so I might correct my behavior and apologize. So please don’t be afraid to tell me when I’ve got my head up my ass. I make no pretenses at being a good person. I’m just trying my damnedest not to be an awful one.

If you’re completely new here you might notice some people calling me “mom” or other variations therein of familial relation. It’s perfectly okay to greet me as such if you wish to do so, but it is by no means an obligatory title and not something I expect or gave to myself. Tumblr decided to adopt me sometime back in 2016 after I did some helpful life advice posts, and I’ve been doing my best to be worthy of the honorific ever since. You can also, if you’d prefer, just call me Joy. Cause that is my name :)

If you ever get tired of seeing my personal health posts, you may wish to blacklist the following tags: #chronic health tag & #chronic health tag: teeth, that way I can bitch and moan into the void and you don’t have to put up with me if you don’t want to.

Also sometimes we stream things (games, writing sessions etc) in my chatroom or via my Twitch. There is also a discord server set up by my friends and followers, where people often hang out just to chat and meet other people in the tumblr fam. It’s owned and run by my good friend @ssalogel, so if you drop him a little note he can get you set up :)

I also have a PO Box listed in my FAQ for if and when anyone would like to send me something random like a book they’d like to see me review, or even the occasional Death fucking skeleton statue too. I only half wish I was kidding.

All of this rambling aside, welcome to my little corner of the Internet I like to think of as family. I hope you’re having a good appropriate time zone, and whatever made you click on me was worth it. Take care of yourselves and each other. You’re more important to the universe than you’ll ever know. <3

I see we’re continuing the 2017 agenda of worsening my impostor syndrome one month at a time. Well start off as we mean to go on I suppose.

Hi, I’m the vampire editor person who just wants to rest. Clickable links are in bold for ease of navigation :)

If you’re here for more questionable puns, Death smut, food history and generally relentless vampire shitposting combined with unconditional love for Carrie Fisher, then boy are you in the right place.

*** IF YOU’RE HERE TO ASK ME HOW I BECAME AN EDITOR OR ARE INTERESTED IN HIRING ME AS ONE, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY FAQ . Thank you <3***

Due to tumblr tricking me into becoming a professional writer I’m currently working on about a million and one writing projects. Most of them vampire related for some bizarre unknown reason.

The most well known is likely Hunger Pangs which is available for pre-order via my Patreon, and hopefully soon Amazon for those of you who prefer it. Cause that’s right, I took that shit post and turned it into a queer-polyamorous-paranormal-satirical-romance novel featuring vampires, werewolves and punching undead fascists (It wasn’t intended to be politically relevant but here we are).

A fairly concise summary of it can be found here and excerpts can be found by searching for the tag ‘#the vampire werewolf thing’, which is the unofficial tagline for Hunger Pangs or #Phangs as some people have started to tag it. By request there is going to be two versions of the book, one which contains sexual content, and one which does not, for those who are not interested in smut and like a little more fluff with their fangs.

All of my work that I intend to publish professionally will also be available smut free in plain romance/fluff versions for anyone that wants it.  

Along with Phangs I’m also working on a gritty Scottish romance novella (extract) based on a pun; a pun based bakery romance(extract), a pun based werewolf Scottish romance (have you noticed a theme yet), and  a modern day romantic comedy concerning Scotsmen with questionable morals. Which also has an excerpt on my Ao3. Oh and also a vampire wedding planner romcom because apparently I have lost complete control of my life

I’m surprisingly okay with this.

All of my work is tagged appropriately, with anything that is 18+ being placed under a cut and tagged as #NSFW or #NSFW Text for ease of blacklisting if you would like avoid it. If you are under the age of 18, I do ask that you respect my boundaries and refrain from interacting with anything on my blog that is labelled 18+. I try very hard to keep my blog as safe for everyone as I can. No mean feat when you’re known across the Internet as “the crucifix vampire nipple lady” :P

If you need me to tag something for trigger purposes, no matter how silly you think I might think it is, please let me know, I will be more than happy to do so.

If you’re completely new here you might notice some people calling me “mom” or other variations therein of familial relation. It’s perfectly okay to greet me as such if you wish to do so, but it is by no means an obligatory title and not something I gave to myself. Tumblr decided to adopt me sometime back in 2016 after I did some helpful life advice posts, and I’ve been doing my best to be worthy of the honorific ever since. You can also, if you’d prefer, just call me Joy. Cause that is my name :)

Please have patience if you are sending me asks or IMs. I am but a humble smut peddler, peddling my weres, and have some pretty profound chronic health problems ranging from autoimmune issues to nerve damage which make keeping up with a high traffic blog as well as my work schedule rather difficult. So I’m sorry if you ever send me something and I don’t see it. I’m trying.

If you get tired of seeing my health posts, you may wish to blacklist the following tags: #chronic health tag & #chronic health tag: teeth, that way I can bitch and moan into the void and you don’t have to put up with me if you don’t want to.

Also sometimes we stream things in my chatroom or on my Twitch. You can find the link to my chat on my navigational bar, and are welcome to check out at any time though we are currently on hiatus. There is also a discord chat set up by my friends and followers, where people often hang out just to chat. The link to this can also be found via my chatroom or by sending me a message.

Oh and you can now follow me on Twitter if that is a thing you are interested in. I also have a PO Box listed in my FAQ for if and when anyone would like to send me something random like a book they’d like to see me review, or even the occasional Death fucking skeleton statue too. No I’m not kidding.

All of these things aside, welcome to my little corner of the Internet. I hope you’re having a good appropriate time zone, and whatever made you click on me was worth it.

Take care of yourselves and each other, and I’ll see you in the comments.  Welcome to the family. <3

It’s been just 18 days since we fell into the void, where did all of you come from?

Hgshflkl. I went to screen cap this prestigious moment of hitting (over!!!) 20,000 followers but then the activity feed broke so hard the graph vanished and I’ve just been sitting here laughing so hard I’m wheezing. This is it, this is peak tumblr experience. WELCOME TO THE VOID
