It's taking me forever (auuuuugh), but I promise I am working on Book #3! Here are some snippets from the most recent chapter as proof.
I realized today that I rarely describe one of the main characters in conventionally attractive terms, so here's a collection of her looking like a consumptive Victorian poet.

Not an artist, but I tried to make fan art of one of my latest obsessions.
The other day, I went to a convention where there was a presentation about the monstrous in queer fairy tales retelling. It was the day I discovered More than enough by @ajumbleofpages!
This story deserves so much more art!! So here I am, drawing even though I'm not good at it, to show how I picture Petra and Fier, the main characters. I'll try to improve my drawings, and I hope I'm not too far off from how they look!
AHHHHH LOOK AT THEM!!!! I love your interpretations of their designs! Fier's little ponytail is my favorite! You also did such a great job with Petra's body language and work outfit; I love the patches on his elbows and how he looks a little shy and uncomfortable with his arms crossed. Thank you for sharing your drawings of them!
Every once in a while I think about Of The Wild again and how fuckin good that book was, and I get that ache of love in my chest and I just. Fuck I love that book
Of The Wild by E. Wambheim ( @ajumbleofpages )
Description: Aeris, a shapeshifter of the Wild, steals children from unloving homes and raises them as his own in an enchanted grove deep in the Woods. Under the protective eye of their new guardian, the children absorb the forest’s magic and grow more fey-like than human: some of them sprout mushrooms or flowers while others develop scales or wings.
But the reserve of magic that keeps Aeris and his forest home alive is inexplicably running dry. With his life waning and the dangers of the Wild creeping closer and closer, Aeris will do anything to protect his family, even set his hopes on an unlikely new arrival in the Woods: a human stranger.
Review: I LOVED this book so much, it’s easily one of my favorite books now. This book features two queer characters, including the MC who is asexual and genderqueer! It’s also written by an asexual and nonbinary author who’s dedicated to writing books with asexual main characters. The story itself is absolutely beautiful, so soft and has such a great arc for each character. I relate so much to Aeris in this story, this is one of the few books where I’ve been able to see myself so clearly in the main character. Also I have to say that the cover art (by @thistlebeetle ) is ABSOLUTELY beautiful, I based the color scheme of my spread on it and it’s honestly one of my favorite book covers.
Buy the book: Amazon, Barnes and Noble
that one essay writer here: its been a *hot minute* since my semester ended and idk how i just forgor to tell you but my professor liked the essay so much she asked if i wanted to expand upon my ideas for a research paper (on queer retellings and classic interpretations of fairy tales) for the undergraduate research conference at my uni! nothing solid yet since we're going to talk about it when the spring semester rolls in in September but thank you because if it wasnt for your book i wouldnt have been offered this opportunity under the english department as a psych major not majoring or minoring in english🫶
HECK YEAH, THAT'S AWESOME NEWS! What an awesome premise for a longer research paper, and I love that your professor wants you to explore that in greater depth across more retellings! I love that something so cool came out of your English class, and I love that More Than Enough was a gateway to a wider research journey. Thank you for giving me the update, and (even if it's still a forming plan) good luck with the research paper! <3 <3

I love that you had a trans character in Of the Wild and it just fit perfectly. I loved him with all my heart. :)
I'm glad you loved him so much! <3 Writing him finding home in his own body and with a loving, supportive family was deeply satisfying, so it's gratifying to hear that his trans-ness seemed to fit perfectly within the narrative. C:
Petra and Fier by @ajumbleofpages
You are going to destroy me with all of this fan art!! This one is SO SOFT!! They would absolutely sleep all squished together like this; they look so cozy and comfortable together. <3 I love Petra's profile here--it's so elegant. And the little 'zz' speech bubble you added is so cute. ;u;
I just read of the wild and it's so beautiful! I was crying for the last 30 pages because it's so nice and so well written and all...
Also the children are so adorable and I love how casual you treated Aeris Aceness and Williams Transness, there but not at the center of the story.
I'm definitely going to reread this book!!
Also I really enjoyed the part near the end, with the jumbled words and half sentences across the pages!
Hearing that people cried at the end of Of the Wild is my favorite thing--thank you for sharing! I love that it affected you so much, and that you already want to reread it. <3
I'm glad the jumbled words and sentence fragments! That was a satisfying section to write and piece together; I like how much opportunity I had to play with language and perception of consciousness.
Fier by @ajumbleofpages
We only got to see him and Petra playing the piano, but he obviously loved his violin. So, here's Fier playing on his own.
Song he's playing under the cut:
Please know that I spent an embarrassingly long time just smiling at this before I reblogged it. I'm in love with the visual of Fier getting to play his violin again (at last!) post-curse. Your drawing is so serene, and it's honestly such a gift to see him enjoying something so dear to his heart. (Also that pose?? The violin?? AMAZING!)
Sir Eckhart by @ajumbleofpages
AHHHH I never expected Sir Eckhart to get fan art!! I LOVE THIS!! What a good pose and what a great outfit! I love those boots and that deep red/almost purple you picked for her cloak. And the pose!! This makes me want play a video game where she's the quiet but bad-ass protagonist.

Petra from More Than Enough by @ajumbleofpages.
YOU DREW PETRA TOO!! I love the outfit you gave him--those dark clothes are such a strong contrast to how bright the flowers are. And you did SUCH a good job with his body language, you can really tell he's uncomfortable with people seeing his face. And I don't know what you do to get such cool lightning effects in the sky, but it's beautiful! <3
My very best attempt at drawing Fier.
AHHH I LOVE HIM!!! He's so dapper! I love the little wave you gave to his hair!! And the background is lovely; I like the light gradient you added to the windows behind him. Thank you for sharing, and thank you for drawing him! <3
Is cosplay of your characters alright? (I've been trying to work on one, but it's taking a million years cuz I'm broke lol)
Cosplay is ABSOLUTELY alright! That's so cool that you're working on one! In-progress or complete, I would love to see it!
Do you mind fanart of your characters?
I LOVE fanart of my characters! Please feel free to share any of it with me or tag me in a post with it; I promise to be utterly delighted by it as soon as I see it!
I've read More Than Enough like four times in the last three days. Fier is my favorite character of yours. :)
Ahhh, I love that the story resonates with you so much!! I'm glad you were able to find it, and I'm delighted Fier has such an adoring fan. <3

just wrote a literary analysis of ur book which my prof had as an assigned reading for our fairy tales course and everyone in our class enjoyed it so much that im p sure it was the most written on beauty and the beast variant for our second essay assignment👍keep up the good work! i look forward to reading more of your tales🫶🖤🤍💜
Oh my gosh, this is so cool to hear?!! I'm so flattered that you (and so many of your classmates!) chose to write a literary analysis of More Than Enough--and also that your professor assigned it as a Beauty and the Beast variant. Thank you for sharing! And good luck with the rest of your course! 🖤🤍💜
For the followers who are curious, I am SLOOOOWLY working through a draft of Book #3, and I think that once I make more headway, I'll post the first couple of chapters online for folks to preview.
It's gonna be F/F with one ace-aro lead and one ace-??? lead, and their relationship is going to be more of a queer-platonic relationship than a romantic one (although your mileage may vary; romance seems like it's very subjective).
I'm feeling a bit bad that Book #3 isn't shaping up to be as soft and gentle as the More Than Enough or Of the Wild; it has more blood and on-the-page body horror (mostly because of some messy werewolf transformations), so my apologies in advance if you're hoping for another cozy read! This one will have soft, gentle moments and a soft, gentle ending, but we're gonna be spooky and gothic beforehand.
After this one, I'll write soft and sweet again, but I gotta get this one out of my brain first!
