Jump into the Abyss by Louise Blackwick is a creepy #shortstory full of visceral discomfort and #horror. Definitely one that will stick with me. #BookSky 💙📚 @louiseblackwick.com

I wrote an article in which I break down how I built "PROMISE" & "PAYOFF" for 2 of my most popular stories. (+ I discuss how authors like Sanderson, Martin, Rowling & Pixar writers do it). It'll drop tomorrow 12 PM (CET) on my Patreon & will be free for everyone!💙📚 www.patreon.com/posts/155885...

My dear Bluesky family, I haven't been very active on social media b/c of doing a slew of creative cool things A lot of these projects are new, ambitious & cosmically terrifying. They give me terrible anxiety, but also make me come alive. Here's a few: I'd love to hear what y'all have been up to🥰

I'll be attending both #INDIGO (Rotterdam, NL) & #Gamescom (Köln, DE) this year. Come by & say hi! If you love either #books or #videogames, or are working in the game industry, I'd love to have a chat & exchange notes. For Gamescom, I'll be around the place Thursday 27 Aug. Hope to see you there🥰

I loved that "healing with the flesh of the living and the death" part too! So metal! 🤩 I went into my e-book and took a screenshot of that scene. I hope @louiseblackwick.com doesn't mind me sharing that part.

Few people know this, but I'm also trained as a linguist in Old English, Norse & Proto-German. I also speak Dutch, French, Swedish & Finnish. This expertise has led to me crafting 9 fictional languages for my epic fantasy series, Vivian Amberville.💙📚 How has your background shaped your writing?🙃

My Patreon community's been asking this for YEARS. Maybe it's finally time to dream a little bigger. I'm going to dip my little toe into the #gameindustry & see if there's any possibility of a #videogame adaptation of my successful dark fantasy book series, Vivian Amberville. Time to go to work.💙📚

#FunFacts A colourful part of #VivianAmberville 's #darkfantasy book universe is Kaap, the Hole-in-the-Wall. Not only can this intelligent #shapeshifter morph into any creature imaginable, but he can also become a walking-talking "hole/burrow"🕳️ Or even tunnel through the very fabric of reality. 💙📚

Project Hail Mary really has a shot at being a major breakout hit for Amazon MGM Studios the sort of hit the legacy brand hasn't had outside of a Bond movie in forever

A Woman of Substance review – a lavishly absurd, cliche-packed tribute to simpler times

I wasn't always a full time #author with several successful books in print. (1/11) Truth be told, I failed 100x more than I succeeded. But some of the projects I worked on have paved the way to the artist and writer I am today. Here's a quick timeline of some of my projects:

I still cannot get this mind-blowing book out of my head. ("The Book of Chaos") Epic dark fantasy, complex magic systems, figure-8 time loops, huge cast of grey characters, and a plot more tightly-woven than a cosmic tapestry. @louiseblackwick.com's books are what it feels like to chew 5 gum.💙📚

I had an amazing day on set today. 🥰 We just wrapped up filming episode 9 & we are prepping to shoot the 10th (and final) episode. In season 1, I got to meet my interdimensional doppelgängers & explore the vast fantasy world of my novels. I can't wait to unleash this wacky show upon the world! 💙📚

In today's article, I shared a few best practices for weaving "the Self archetype" into your creative writing projects.💙📚 Fair warning: there is some rather difficult, expert-level hermetic writing advice in this one, which makes it slightly unsuited for new writers www.patreon.com/posts/jungia...

Blimey, Georgie did an excellent job remastering my original artwork for Bloodeater. (Vivian Amberville's trademark "thought-made-flesh" weapon).🗡️🤩 She even added the creepy red & black veins & swollen capillaries that take over your arm when holding #Bloodeater! 💙📚 #vivianamberville #DarkFantasy

6. This is one of those filling-in-the-blanks books, following 7 of 9 from life on Earth post-Voyager to the space vigilante she’s become when we next encounter her in the Picard series. At times the rough space life has a Star Wars vibe, but 7 is a fun character and I enjoyed the journey. #booksky

Time travel is the easy part. The difficult part is waiting in line behind all your future selves, trying to undo mistakes you haven’t even made yet. 💙📚 #vivianamberville #timeloops #cosmichorror #darkfantasy

Going swimingly! A bit earlier today, I took a wee hike.

Your cute pupper cured my aching muscles, sunken eyes, painful gums, ashen skin, loss of teeth, internal bleeding, the reopening of old wounds, diarrhea, kidney failure, sudden fainting, scurvy, halitosis and death. tldr: Winnie is so freaking cute! ❤️ PS: wishlist Paddlenoid! tinyurl.com/yc6wn9fh

hah, tack ska du ha.😶‍🌫️ Meanwhile... this is what I ACTUALLY looked like at 23 years of age. :))

Here am I now - between the #SpeculativeFiction realm, and the #IndieLiterary circle - a tiny speck of #creative dust... adrift a green sea of talented fellow #authors, sparkling under the crisp #Bluesky of mid-winter. \O_o/ If we haven't met before, I'm a full time author based in the Netherlands.

Some of you are new to #VivianAmberville. It's still selling a ton of copies every single day, so we thought of making a #FunFact series, for the ppl who don't know much about the universe of the novels. We'll start with an easy one: #1 The Pelsinn Mount is the most common ridable animal in Ærria💙📚

Here are some more progress pics for the #bookcover of "Vivian Amberville - The Empire of Sand" (3rd book in the upcoming #darkfantasy series)💙📚 Everything you see was hand-drawn by yours truly (no AI) Tools: pen, paper & Wacom tablet I still got a very long way to go qua linework & colouring.😊🤞

Never have I met a poet with such exceptional flair for re-imagining popular IPs into beautiful, soulful, fine displays of #poetry! What @jordanriverwrites.bsky.social is trying to do here (and very much succeeding!) is nothing short of spectacular.❤️ #Bluesky, kindly give Jordan all your love! 💙📚

My fellow Weavers & Chaos Weavers, This February, we finally wrap up filming "Louise Blackwick vs. the Algorithm" - a funny, tongue-in-cheek Youtube show where I meet versions of myself from parallel realities. Editing & post-production will behind shortly. 🎥 Hope you'll tune in when it's out! 🥰❤️

Some members of your Jungian Writing community were asking about a hub with all your articles. I am sharing this post, which links all your Patreon articles on using Alchemy, Hermetic principles, arcane/occult philosophies & Jungian Archetypes in creative writing 🫡: www.patreon.com/posts/creati...

Had a lovely time yesterday at @eckhardischebeck.bsky.social'sopening Art Exposition (#Kulturbahnhof Hiltrup, near Münster, Germany) 🥳🎉 Meanwhile, my #BookSigning Tour around Europe continues! 💙📚 If you happen to spot me in your city, don't hesitate to say hi! 🥰❤️ #writingcommunity #louiseblackwick

Thank you kindly for sharing, Jyrki!🥰❤️ The HUB is still a work-in-progress, but it already contains my most important articles in the Jungian Writing series, using Alchemy/Hermeticism in writing (& other internet-popular series) as well as what the #writingcommunity can expect in the near future.💙📚

Fresh new article has just dropped for the peeps on the Innocent Tier (and above): www.patreon.com/posts/if-you... This one addressed building a solid community around your writing and/or art. Something tells me you're all going to love this one. 😉 💙📚

I'm overwhelmed with the positive response I've got on my "Jungian Writing Series"!💙📚 I'd like to thank my fellow authors & creatives for building such a wholesome community around the practice of "using alchemical principles in our stories" Thank you all!🥰 www.louiseblackwick.com/jungian-writ...
