I got book mail yay yay yay yay yay yay

Birthmas, book, and a pool I found at someone else's apartment complex

I wanna get a tattoo that represents nuclear physics without giving people the impression that I enjoy Big Bang Theory. Someone needs to study the pipeline of "kid who wanted to be a scientist and now writes books about weird shit"

Evie's little snaggletooth I can't stand her <3

I often forget that Evelyn is canonically 4 apples tall until I draw her next to one of her friends ("The Fool" card for the Kickstarter tarot deck btw)

🖤🖤🖤

Wearing contact lenses today.

Just woke up from a dream where I tried to convince everyone my dad was a famous musician named Butterfinger Jones.

A Lonely Broadcast Book Three is halfway finished and BOY is this one gonna hurt...

My first event decor!! I bought these for an event later this month, but I'm unsure if I'll actually make it due to awaiting surgery and being so sick :(

If you loved Widow's Bay, try these. 📚🩸

Endoscopy day!! Everyone cast a quick "Kel stop getting tumors" spell if you believe in faeries.

Trying to get dolled up and feel normal despite being so sick that I wanna take the big dirt nap.

This time, it's not cancer we don't think! But it's too soon to know exactly, and in the meantime my first internal scope is Wednesday. All I know is that I'm in a lot of pain, very fragile, and very thankful for my friends and family rn. ❤️ I'll be back!

Been in and out of hospital for a few days so work will be slow! They think my gallbladder is failing but we won't know until Friday 100% I have 6 sweet kitty nurses

Hopital (Ya girl is frail af)

I hate drawing staircases, so why do I keep doing this to myself?

Used to dress cute, now it's the Evelyn special all day every day oops

Book 3 is gonna hurt, yall

Having a lot of fun with these~ It's also been cathartic to depict Evelyn's story in art. It's personal, as someone who struggled badly with substances from age 16 until... well, recently. She's a messy girl, but beyond the crass humor and grumpiness, there's beauty in her.

Working from the hospital today (a standard procedure for mom, nothing bad) and you KNOW I had to wear my favorite shirt 📖 Also, A Lonely Broadcast book 2 paperback is pending a quick cover revision but it'll be back on shelves soon!

In case y'all are wondering how painful the next book is gonna be, I've been watching Interstellar and Arrival for inspiration lately.

My two favorite monsters...

Happy Pride Month to A Lonely Broadcast and this precious, smelly, gay disaster of a main character.

Did you get some fresh air today? Did you touch grass? Did you say hello to a weird bug?

I have to be the best dressed person at the dermatologist's office or I will explode.

Devastated to announce that I took a wee little nap and it did help me feel better and less cranky.

when you come down to it Godzilla is just the most righteous shit of all time

I have 22 of these tarot cards to make for kickstarter Please recommend your favorite long video essays or binge-worthy videos I beggg

I promise I'm still doing cool author shit, but my desk is on a different side of the house than I'm used to and my brain has been in meltdown mode about it for a week 👍

I hope they play Pink Pony Club.

Jay and I are going to a metal show tomorrow to pull of this legendary look

Flatcolor bust for @kelbyronauthor.bsky.social Was very excited to get to draw favorite girl Evelyn 💜💜💜 check out A Lonely Broadcast Station now!! #RileyArt #RileyCommissions #commissions #alonelybroadcaststation

I've been sick as hell but here's a preview of what I'm posting up on Kickstarter later 👀

Ghostwriter

Packing the essentials

A year of working with this colony, and Wilford Beefly accepted his first pets!! (These beautiful cats are NOT domestic btw. But our neighborhood loves and protects them as they are. The fact that Beef trusted me enough for a little pet is a rare bonus!)

My sweet Betty left me a gift. It's too delicate to move, but i cleared the vines away and will be planting some Poet's Daffodil at the new house. So we can match.

Poe made a new best friend.

ALB Book 3 is gonna be longer than the last two, hope ya don't mind.

What are YOUR favorite book tropes? 💚

We only write tales of grief and rage around these parts.

I wondered why all the blankets and jackets in the house were missing...

Had a conversation with my neighbor today, and am very happy to announce that he's going to take over care of our feral cat colony after I move! I will be helping him with supplies and relocating the shelters soon.

Tornado sirens (My feral cat shelter is open and fully stocked for the colony tonight ❤️)

Working at home while I have it 🖤 I'm relieved to move, but it's bittersweet. I fostered dozens of kittens and sick animals, wrote 3 books, recovered from addiction, escaped my childhood abuser, and kicked stage 1B cancer in this house. But it's time for something new.

Cid Finalfantasy figured out hardwood floors and now none of us are safe from his rage. (Ignore the dirty floor, we movin')

Hey friends! I'm making a Q&A video sometime this week for the first time ever! So, leave a comment or DM if you have any questions you want to ask about self publishing, my books, animal rescue, etc. 🖤

Moving the decor out of my house means finding a new place for this absolute masterpiece J made a couple years ago

Sometimes I feel like a fraud if I don't work enough (like right now when I'm literally moving and renovating a whole house by myself???) But other times, I remember that I've only been writing books for 3 years and I have so many ideas and books and art to make!! So much time!! A whole life!!!!
