things i'm working on!
verdigris compendium - a weird-fiction work about a city meeting its god, in the form of a primordial and parasitic microorganism that finds us just as alien as we find it. a lot of body horror, existential philosophy, water-based metaphors, speculative biology, and one very poorly detective named kip
dog dog heron - or the misadventures of such. in a small and wet country town, three teenage girls (an ecology nerd, an amateur ghost hunter, and a ghost inhabiting her own decayed body) solve a murder and then seek vengeance on the man responsible. there is also a weird house, a lot of dogs, and lot of worms, meat in the walls, hair in the sink, and someone coughing up teeth
lambstooth - the love story between a varmint and her hunter. dog-girl and girl-dog. feral and hound. contains werewolves, dubious apothecaries, the nature of sickness, and a lot of blood. oh! and a miserable prematurely greying man who is the worst

"meat worm! i found someone reposted your art!" did they credit me? if so, i don't mind. if not, be upon them like a swarm of flies
"do you do commissions?" not at the moment
"why haven't you answered my ask [yet] :(?" i get a lot of asks and do not have the mental strength to respond to them all - i do read them though and appreciate them a lot!!! i really like receiving asks (especially ones that are really specific) and i will do my best :]
"can you tell me more about yourself?" no :)
