a floppy friend plush! [ #Plush #plushart #sewingpattern ]

Heyo! I had to leave my previous job abruptly and now I'm trying to branch out as a creator! This month my goal is to pay my rent by August 1st. I've got art and writing comms open on VGen with a grand opening discount of 20%. vgen.co/unlockthelore #vgen #writesky #artsky #ficsky #ocsky

Here’s a PSA for people like me who were raised not to waste food (perhaps rather aggressively) we are now dealing with an unreliable food safety system in the US. If something tastes weird or funny or off IN ANY WAY just throw it away.

the forbidden candy

working through editorial notes bc i know they will make my manuscript better but i am still a sensitive writer

A Youth stopped by my table towards the end of the time. They asked about my book and the trans flag I had at my table. They asked if I was trans, and I said "no, not really, but my wife is! I'm more non-binary." "Well I'm also non-binary, so that makes you trans."

About to wrap up! Sold a couple books, a candle, a keychain, and a soap bar. Considering I was expecting 0, I'm quite pleased! Tomorrow will hopefully be busier.

Men here will pass women run tables and/or stop to talk about THEIR books. Like bro, move along. I'm a table away and can tell she wants you GONE.

Nothing but respect for MY Major

Someone is blasting some show on their phone in this hall and I'm ready to take their phone and chuck it.

Just had a bunch of youths stop by and SNIIIIIIFF the soaps

I wish I weren't right in front of someone's actual office but here I am! Convention opens at noon today. (I'm masking but had to catch my breath.)

What in the humidity is this weather at 11 PM. I've been in aquariums less humid than this 😵

My baby girl 🥰

I had some feelings, I did some art.

Friday Friday Friday

Are we ever going to talk about how I'm always running out of conditioner first

When fate goes sideways, tame chaos* * I organized the bathroom

Nothing like getting a job rejection for your dream job where you felt like you nailed the interview right before your first convention as a vendor.

I am so glad he knew, while he still lived, how much we loved him.

Nonbinary books by a nonbinary author for Nonbinary Day! All my books are queer SFF (fantasy, romance, horror) but these 3 have nonbinary trans main characters. Book descriptions in alt! 💛🤍💜🖤 Itchio: ardenpowell.itch.io Amazon/KU: www.amazon.com/stores/Arden... Patreon: www.patreon.com/ardenpowell

It's International Nonbinary People's Day and I'm an... international nonbinary person 😅 And also all my books are still 50% off for the Smashwords July sale so maybe consider buying one? Like this one right here? (Also my arthritis is still ouch and you know the rules)

*slides into your kitchen* Not only is the author non-binary, but one of the main love interests is ALSO non-binary. Perhaps give this indie book a try today?

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day!

#ArtRepostJuly Day 12 - colourful This is the oldest piece I've shared for this challenge so far, it's wild to see how much my art style has changed in the last few years! And probably the most colourful piece I've drawn (so far 🤭).

Blep.

At this point witches and librarians are probably our best hope

Crisp cold salmon with some cream cheese. 🤤

This is my first event as a vendor! I'll be in the Creatives' Alley all weekend. If you're in the area or will be attending, I'd love to say hello. ♥

Is this the right day to mention I have these for sale? ko-fi.com/s/1a809bfcbc

Did you know if you have a following of any size, some percentage of them rely on alt text because of vision, neurological, or crappy internet connection issues? Adding alt text also makes it more likely your image gets reposted. It is also a great and thoughtful kindness in a world that needs it 💜

I was busy yesterday contemplating how to steal an otter, but you can get 35% off my ebook and audiobook through Sunday with code Birthday35 The files are yours forever! Interested but can't afford it? I happily do book trades, or just send me an email!

If anyone has any marketing tips, I'd take any advice (other than IG or TikTok). 🥲

Quality or overall decay in video games is so crappy. I already forget about the veggies in the fridge. Lemme keep my fresh crisp veggies in my inventory for as long as I want. :'(

Next week is my first convention with my own table! I haven't gotten a map or where I'll be, but hopefully soon.

A ceramic otter forest spirit! This little piece will be available Friday, July 17th at 8pm Eastern time.
