D: Is My Expression Right Now
Everywhere I go I see, in the YA sector, people going, “NO MORE VAMPIRES!” and other words to that effect.
Every time I see that, though, I just want to yell back, “BUT MINE AREN’T IN HIGH SCHOOL!”
Delia’s over eighteen for a reason people. Just as Daniel looks about twenty-five.
Definitely not in high school, y’all.
Oh, and mine also have fangs. Coz the biting is the fun bit, right? I like my vampires grey and walking penetrative sex metaphors.
What Is Dinah Reading?
I start chapter four of Bones with Dinah lying on her bed reading and listening to music while Gregory sticks his hand through the door and waves it about in the hopes of catching her attention – as a ghost he can’t knock, and he does not know her well enough to simply walk through and say hello.

I’m stuck at a point on Lionheart (39k mark too… what the hell?) and so I’m taking a break from it before coming back. In the meantime I am working on my secondary WIP, Bones.
Bones was always going to be a sad book where life/fate/the universe pretty much takes all its frustrations on the two main characters but as
We Interrupt This Lack Of Posting
To bring you a very important youtube video.
In other news, I’m wading my way through some awkward scenes for Lionheart – they’re awkward because my brain wants to get to the awesome scenes but I know I have to do these scenes for context, world-building and to start peeling away at the backstory of a main character. Also, everyone needs a wash. Gross. So we’re going to be taking advantage of that.
Plus I am having fun having unintentional (but appropriate) subtext pointed out to me by my betas.
Anyway, I’m at 39 000 words, so expect a “Yippee! Halfway
