Seems my good friend Jonathan Harker might be in more trouble than expected. Surely it's nothing more than superstition, though. This Dracula can't be anything more than a man. Yet, I do hope he keeps that rosary on him, just in case.

5 June - The Dracula Drought begins
a redraw of this art from DD2023!
#my art#dracula#dracula daily#re: dracula#note to self: dd2024#rushed this in like 40mins im rusty ough#i wanna open up commissions soon but need to finish work first#i should make this a yearly thing just to compare my art progress#an alt version i was considering was having Jonathan read it this time while drac has his hand on his shoulder to showcase the gradual#invasion of his narrative voice by the count and thus role reversal powerplay but mm wanted to keep it consistent#imagining drac drinking 'wine' while his hand's on jons shoulder all ventriloquist esque slaps though

it's so funny doing Dracula Daily this year but missing it last year because everyone else is frothing at the mouth at the harbingers of what's to come and I'm just like
the whole dashboard crying and shitting their pants over some paprika rn

Right. This has been a vampire thing since *Dracula* Dracula. For some reason that's so easy to forget.
#I think I know the reason actually it's because iconic pop culture monsters kind of get de-fanged (heh) in their ubiquity#Like you get to a point where even children are familiar with the archetype and ofc you aren't showing them the version with all the detail#So if you have a horror icon that ''everyone'' recognizes then most peoples' first exposure to them would be the kiddie-safe version.#Dracula#Dracula Daily#lit#lit analysis#Look it's been a while since I've read Dracula okay? Epistolary novels are not my favorite format.#The real-time gimmick is doing a lot to make that writing style feel fun for me to engage with instead of just annoying.

The problem with cash is I literally convince myself that no one can see me spending it and therefore it’s not real money and can’t get me. And then I spend £48 on books
#my grandma gives me cash every time i see her and i always forget to deposit it until i’m carrying over 200 in cash like some child emperor#who is begging to be robbed#the thing is instead of depositing it i make these stupid financial decisions#anyway does anyone want my book haul in text form??? okay so#first i hit up a secondhand book shop and honestly i could’ve spent all day in there and bought everything but i tried to be realistic about#what i was actually going to read sometime soon#so i bought revival by stephen king; the unbearable lightness of being by milan kundera (i just keep hearing good things about this book#and i’m curious and it was only £1.50)#then i bought two taylor jenkins reid books; after i do & maybe in another life#i just like her romances. i don’t care for contemporary romance generally but idk there’s just something about how she writes#i really liked one true loves and how Much was going on in that book. so i decided to get these two as well#then i walked into a new book shop and for whatever reason my inhibitions just left my body#it would’ve been better if i had gone buckwild like this in the secondhand shop but anyway#i bought a fucking special edition of dracula. what’s really crazy is it wasn’t even the cover that sold me#the typesetting is so lovely for some reason. i saw it and i was like okay the next time i read dracula; it needs to be from this book#then i got rouge by mona awad because i loved bunny; it was so delightfully bizarre#and i dithered a bit but i bought orbital by samantha harvey#i am just so curious about how it beat james for the booker prize… i’ve gotta know why#i mean maybe i just have the blinders on when it comes to percival everett in that i think everything he writes should win an award#like maybe it’s just me#the owner gave me a free magazine and wrapped my books really nicely 🥹 i must cry#i feel like the trip was a success. i love independent bookshops. my wallet doesn’t though#personal
