I'm officially a published author??? 🥹😮😳😯🤩 (I have a lot of feelings about this.) "The Flat" is a Patreon-exclusive modern noir short story published by the awesome and amazing @duckprintspress.com which you should definitely support on Patreon if you like queer lit and/or short stories 💜

This is a comic about my life. But especially when "book" is actually "300k+ epic WIP with years between updates"

Rising from the creative dead with 8.5k of emotional rollercoaster. If you're in the mood to swing wildly between panic and passion, I've got the chapter update for you. Featuring a Rook who might be undead and an Emmrich who might be undressed.

Looking to read more in 2025? Do you live in California? Here is a (not exhaustive) list of public libraries that offer free digital access cards online to all California residents.

Romanced Rook dynamics. #DragonAge #Emmrook

Just realized I should post this here, too. The Birth of Venus featuring Emmrich Volkarin, an idea which occurred to me out of the blue while I was driving the other day. Every time I look at it I grin like an idiot and then ask myself what I'm doing with my life.

Started a Veilguard Rook/Emmrich arranged marriage fic. I'm unwell about this game and about this necromancer specifically. Both of these necromancers actually.

But seriously, consider treating yourself to this Kickstarter. DPP has a phenomenal fulfillment record and unforth works soooo hard to make the whole process a quality experience for literally everyone involved. Lot of love going into each and every DPP publication, and this is no exception.

(I didn't forget the artists I just ran out of characters on my post 😭😭 and then I forgot to follow up with a plug for the artists. My deepest apologies!)

This is so true! That makes it more like $1 a story for the beautiful A4 coffee table book! Don't like reading? (First of all who are you?) $2.50 each for 20 beautiful full color A4 prints is ALSO a steal! Everybody wins!

No but actually if you haven't backed this yet, you should. These days twenty bucks (the backer level for the e-book) sounds kinda steep BUT that's about a dollar per story. If you can swing like... $2.50 a story? You can get a nice coffee table book. Just saying.

We’re thrilled to announce that the crowdfunding campaign for our next anthology, A TRUTH UNIVERSALLY ACKNOWLEDGED: QUEER FANWORKS INSPIRED BY JANE AUSTEN'S "PRIDE AND PREJUDICE" is live! 21 queer stories! 20 queer art works! Lots of peacocks! Check it out! <3 www.kickstarter.com/projects/duc...

I'm soooooo normal about Veilguard actually. As evidence, here's my Rook. www.tumblr.com/andi-sketchb...

I am so normal about Dragon Age: The Veilguard, honest! Rated T, no warnings, no spoilers, ~2k. Rook/Emmrich but only tangentially. Mostly it's just the Veilguard razzing Rook for being a lovesick puppy.

Posted a short blurb about the novel I'm writing over on my blog. I cannot ever shut up about this grumpy disaster bi (left) & his sunshine theater gay bestie (right). Say hello to Rose and Monty! 🌈📚 💙🌈

Another post about art? Yeah. But are you really an artist* if you don't philosophize about the creative process? (*Includes writers and crafters, etc.) #meta #writing

In honor of spooky season, I'm going to put to rest a fanfic that's been haunting me. Meanwhile, have this previously unposted companion piece. "Hammer and Tongs" (Horizon: Forbidden West). Erend/Silga, Gen. They fight a Corruptor in the arena at the big tourney. archiveofourown.org/works/59792902

#hadesgame #hadessupergiant Love Ares <3

This just in: go preorder this book so I can read about the exhausted colleague. (I mean, also so YOU can read about the exhausted colleague.) Please? 🥺🙏

I am so stoked to read this. Oh, to be an exhausted colleague keeping the horrors at bay. If you haven't pre-ordered AT LEAST the eBook, what are you doing???? It's only $8, which is literally the price of a fancy coffee these days. Brew a cuppa at home and read this instead!

I can't believe this has over 30 votes already, and there are still 5 days left! Still 5 followers left to go for the lottery, if you're on Tumblr ;) #writing #author #queerfiction

Soft-launching my author blog with a poll and a "giveaway" of sorts (pick my next short story and maybe get to name a character) andi-rigby.tumblr.com/post/7641771... #selfpromo #originalwork #shortstory #authorblog

Some fanart from the weekend. My boy #zagreus fighting the good fight. #hadesgame #hadessupergiant

Rendered a doodle from a few months back. I didn't have any goals or ideas with the sketch or with this render, just going with the flow. I'm liking the way it turned out. #art #originalwork #fantasy

Have you ever felt bad about art you were working on? (This includes writing, btw.) Not because someone told you it was bad, but just because you personally were not getting enjoyment out of making it? Don't succumb to the sunk cost fallacy! #Art #Writing #Meme #HitDaBricks #DeleteYourArt

Our trip to Disney World was a huge success! I got sick halfway through the trip and we STILL had fun (although riding a roller coaster with a head cold... well, I don't recommend it).

Been playing #CultoftheLamb and I did not know it was possible for a game to be this cute and also this fucked up 🤣 As a #Moonlighter and a #Rimworld #Anomaly enthusiast, I love this game!

Another of Ambrose & Monty. (I am a one-trick pony.) If you squint you can see Pierre in the background taking the picture. #oc #originalcharacter #MontgomeryFay #AmbroseMorrick #writing #sketch

I stumbled upon the PERFECT sketchbook/journal yesterday at the local art store (lined on the left, blank on the right, medium weight paper) and I broke it in with this sketch. #oc #originalcharacter #MontgomeryFay #AmbroseMorrick #writing #sketch

Have you been wondering what Duck Prints Press has in the works? Well, our next anthology is A Truth Universally Acknowledged: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice.” Meet our contributors! duckprintspress.com/queer-fanwor...

I *finally* wrote out the scene I had storyboarded. It's still rough, but as they say you can't edit a blank page.

Storyboarded a scene from my book, and put it up on my sketch blog. www.tumblr.com/andi-sketchb... ID/alt on the post. #originalcharacters #oc #writing #comic

Finished a painting that's been in the works for like two weeks now. Some day I'll finish the book too 😅

I'm... back? I'm terrible at keeping up on social media but I think I'll make an effort again for a while.

This just in: I don't know the difference between Zaroff and a Card Shark.

Yes I'm still staring at this, wondering where the extra 🟡7 are hiding. Chef doesn't like whole coconuts... but only one of the 15 symbols scores anywhere close to 99 on this board...

My entire creative plan for 2024 might get derailed by Luck Be A Landlord because making & solving single spin puzzles is literally the best thing that could have happened to this game. This is gonna be like Opus Magnum meets LBAL. I'm so excited.

Morbadunds ♥️

#NaNoWriMo update: I've hit 42k and the next 8k are forecasted to be smooth and emotional. Also, acquired a couple new characters. So that's cool.

Bribing myself to finish my #NaNoWriMo project with promises of a new game to be unhinged about. It is doing wonders for my wordcount... just blew through 30k, which is the first time I've been this far ahead on NaNo, uh, ever.

#NaNoWriMo Day 3. 11.5k done. Protagonists and supporting cast have surprised me with a few things, but at least we're still mostly sticking to the outline...

so... is it November 1st yet? my brain is consumed with Thoughts and Feelings and i'm just sitting here. twiddling my thumbs. #NaNoWriMo

7 days till #NaNoWriMo? I guess I'll get my outline in order... always been a pantser in the past but this year I don't have time for anything but planning...

Oseramtober day 20: Bountiful

Oseramtober day 6 & 8: Gourd n' Pumpkin 🎃
