Hello,
You've reached Arden, an author, writer and artist. A lover of all aesthetically pleasing things and video games. Hater of wet floors and sneezes like a cat. I have much to learn, and I really, actually hope to make friends here on Tapas.

Thanks for this opportunity!

After 1 year of having my novel on Tapas, I don't think I ever posted it here. 0_0 Beneath their scarlet-lipped lies and glares built from ice, past their money-chained wrists and diamond-studded necks, the socialite elite, the stars within a solar system, the devastatingly beautiful of Zarity Pr…

Unwritten, but I have to put these down at some point! "I'm a very nice asshole actually. See, I once helped a blind, elderly man across the road. Classic, right?" "As classic as guide dogs go. Though personally, I think you need a muzzle." - "Do you hop beds faster than your tongue runs? I …

That one time when I started drawing again and told my friend I would one day draw as well as my favourite artist. To which, she looked me dead in the eye and said, her tone doubtful, "Are you sure? They're really good." I quit drawing for months after that. But now I'm back to practising again be…

Oof. My story would honestly have Drama as it's most fitting main genre but I feel like rarely anyone looks at Drama so I didn't choose it.

I'm only 3 subs away from 100! I'm trying to hit it before end of August, so please do check it out if you're interested. [image] Currently, my biggest challenge is promoting because, as I've said, I'm aiming to hit 100 subs before August 31st. The date marks the book's 1 year anniversary, you …

Hi! This is my story. It's about rich people and their problems. Mostly teens. There's enemies-to-lovers, old flames, love triangles. With an amnesiac protagonist battling the shadows of his past, while walking straight through the flames of his present. I recommend this novel by @Mithril. It's …

Ooh, well, my book's title is Stillwaters, and I'll try to explain this as spoiler-free as possible. So Stillwaters, still and waters combined. My MC has an extreme fear of deep, vast bodies of water, to the point that he doesn't dare stand too close to them. He has amnesia, so he doesn't remember…

Ah, alas. But yeah, I agree with you, South Korea makes for a gorgeous cover. For mine, I photoshopped a few photos together: New York City, Water, Glass pattered by rain, alongside lights. [image]

Sunsets are gorgeous! And I always like them with some sort of silhouette. I've got a city cover too, if you've seen it. Yours has the neon look to it, and I'm sucker for that hahaha. It sets a good theme

I like your cover. It's pretty. This is my story. It's kinda slow at the start but it gets packed later on. Genre: Drama, Romance, Mystery Blurb: Beneath their scarlet-lipped lies and glares built from ice, past their money-chained wrists and diamond-studded necks, the socialite elite, the stars …

Wish I May, Wish I Might makes me think it's for a fantasy story. It gives me 'Mirror, mirror, on the wall...' vibes, but I guess that's because of the style? I'm thinking that the story has to do with a wish that comes with a heavy price, a dangerous one perhaps. I have no idea what Vehementia is…

How do your characters game? And when they fail, how do they react? Maybe their rage is the silent, cool anger, or just furious screeching paired with enemy trashing. It could also be a process that goes from the former to the latter. How long do they last anyway before rage quitting? If you want …

Hello. Mine is a novel, drama/mystery with lgbtq+ themes. Free to read. Currently 28 subs away from 100. Content warnings: Violence, Abuse (Drug, Alcohol etc), Bullying, Toxic People https://tapas.io/series/Stillwaters

Romance/Drama/Mystery. It's YA. As for juicy, there's a lot of juicy things hahaha

Arbesa. The lovable good girl gets screwed over by everyone around her. She then goes on a path of revenge, which means taking everyone else down, together with her best friend, Rania and new arrival, Kaede. As dark secrets are exposed and the sugar sweetness of her persona starts to rot with the …

Rich people and their problems

Done! Posted. Thanks KR!

I don't have the tools to draw anything digital so I simply use the wonders of Gimp and Pinterest images. [image]

I don't like my own works, it seems unfairly-earned and biased. And I hate it as much as giving myself views, even though I really just want to check how my works look on mobile. But I do subscribe to make sure I can see what the reader sees, like if errors occur and my update doesn't show.

Sure. First or latest chapter, either one.

One of them would be this one. Kaede twirls, his coat swishing alongside him, the breeze flowing from the tips of his hair to the skin beneath his collar. Livened by the coolness, his eyes, bright as the flickering screens throughout, gaze up at the meeting between the skyscraper tips and the end…

Well, it can help, but then that also depends on whether it's even good. There are plenty of stories with irrelevant romance sub-plots serving to annoy rather than give any sort of bonus. Sometimes ppl demand for some romance, sometimes they wish it never even existed once the romance has been added…

Goals for 2019: Stop rewriting. Establish my story plot Improve my writing to satisfactory (my standards for myself may be a bit too high, but oh well) Publish the rewritten story, and as according to my first goal, this will be the last rewrite in a long while, or never. 1, 2 and 4 goals worke…
