I am demisexual, so I kind of feel like that colors how I write romance. :sweat_smile: Noth is non-binary, he/they. Though it hasn't been revealed in the story, Thea is bi/pan. There are and will be some secondary characters that will also be on the LGBTQ+ spectrum to some degree, as well.

Thea's goal is to get information about her own child that was taken away from her. Whether she will want to be a mother or decide to leave the child where they are (or if the child is even living) is another issue altogether. Noth's goal isn't super clear right now. He's just living life the best…

October 6th is National Plus Size Appreciation Day! You can find out more here. Show me those webcomics and novels with positive fat/chubby/plus-size representation! Mine is Desiderium, the story of what happens when a human woman and orc meet during a snowstorm and the things that follow. Roman…

Desiderium has been live online for 2 years on June 1st! (Tapas anniversary is later, since I started it on Webtoons.) I didn't really celebrate it last year, due to the pandemic and all that chaos. So, making up for lost time! I'm pretty happy to have stuck with it this long. Desiderium has mad…

My process is so sloppy. I have a rough script, but sometimes I realize I need to flesh out an episode further or need to add something in, so sometimes episodes/chapters are written before or as I'm sketching it out. Sometimes, I just know the gist of the scene and write the dialogue as I'm s…

Two of my songs are from musicals, so hopefully that's OK. lol 1. So Big, So Small - Dear Evan Hansen The song itself is from Dear Evan Hansen, but I really enjoy the villain!Deku MHA AU animatic for it. I'm a mom myself, so I can get that feeling about feeling so small when trying to be there, …

I have a lot messing with my workflow for my comic. :sob: 1) My 4th grader, 10th grader, and partner have been home since March 2020. Since my partner is the breadwinner, I was the one trying to guide the kids through school until a better online system was in place. I still have to help get them up i…

[image] Just my Desiderium duo as an octo-mer (hope that counts!) and sailor.

All the couples art I have of Noth and Thea is either AU or (potentially) further in the setting. Anywhoo, Noth is a half-orc with a complicated family life and Thea is a human woman, sent away to be straightened up by Auntie Perdie and the Uncles. [image] https://tapas.io/series/Desiderium

Mine is a Fantasy/Romance/Drama, but there's some humor!

Updated today!

You can definitely be raised into emotional isolation. My mother emotionally neglected me as a child and kind of isolated me from peers; things like using work as an excuse to not take me to outings, being huffy about having to take me places to hang out with friends, and complaining about friends w…

Don't apologize for getting personal! Though, if you're feeling like something is wrong, you might be emotionally isolating yourself from others? I only mention this, since you mentioned not feeling anything with friends and can be hard to have a support structure in life if you don't have platoni…

I'm demisexual and I write some pretty darn good romance! I've also read "Let's Talk About Love" by Claire Kann - a book with an asexual character falling in love - and, honestly, it was so adorable. I got squee feels from reading it. I think a big problem with this is how society has intertwined …

Updated yesterday!

Turned 31 in February. I have other comics and novels, but I'm most focused on this webcomic:

Thanks for this chance! I'm about 40 away from my 250 milestone. And I just updated today!

Hello! I'm a non-binary (she/they) bi demi person! A lot of my characters have similar traits - pretty much bi and demi - even though I don't really find a place to explain this in the stories sometimes. In Desiderium, Noth is non-binary (he/they.) Thea is bi, but it hasn't really come up in the s…

I didn't just draw this, but the amount of points my succubus character hit kind of made me laugh. Short hair while mine is relatively long. Eyes are yellow/orange, my least favorite color. Clothes my first (black) and second (wine/pink) favorite colors to actually wear. Heart buttons on the seco…

I have an April Fools episode, but I think/hope it'll be obvious. If not, I spelled out it's a joke strip and have the real strip lined up for tomorrow.

I have a laundry basket full of my very old sketchbooks and loose papers. For my digital stuff, I have a folder on my Google drive with digital art from my old DeviantART. I like going through it and remembering how far I've come, both art-wise and life-wise.

These are mostly things I listen to on Youtube and I don't know how "weird" these are, but: History concerning witches. Since it's usually rooted in ableism, misogyny, racism, xenophobia, and the status quo (church/men/etc) struggling to remain in power. Interesting or tragic history. This can…

I'm pretty confident in my ability to write and tell stories. I might ask what their reasoning is, in case they had a good reason. If they didn't, I'd probably tell them, "Not everything is for you. I hope you find a story more to your liking!" Or I'd ignore it, unless it became a consistent "rud…

Love, Orcs, Complications

I don't remember what my first webcomic was, since it was a medium I went hogwild on for awhile on. These are ones that I remember reading in 2004-2006: Chugworth Academy by Dave Cheung and Jamal Joseph Jr. (Not sure if this one is entirely appropriate, skimming through it on the Internet Archi…

I'm a bi demisexual non-binary (she/them) queer, so is it a copout to say pretty much most of my main characters are demisexual or queer on some level? I just have a hard time remembering to elucidate that, since... well, this is just how I am and I forget others aren't the same way. [image] For…

So many of my stories are about orcs or half-orcs, so probably not what you were looking for. XD And the ideas I have for more abstract monster lovers are still in my head. But I want to share my goorc. Half-goo person, half-orc. Dixxis is relatively new, so I haven't drawn much of them. They're …

Updated the other day!

Creator Questions What are your favorite genres to read? Sci-fi, fantasy. LGBTQ+ themes. I like new takes on fantasy races, too. Who/What are some of your inspirations (art/storytelling)? Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Rachel Smythe and her Lore Olympus comic. Anime or animation in general…

I use an XP-Pen 15.6 Artist (not the Pro version,) which is a screen tablet, with Clip Studio Paint. I really enjoy the brand. I did splurge on this and I got a stand, so it was about $400 altogether when I got it. I had non-screen tablets before this, but I'm pretty happy with this switch. XP-P…
