Some doodling and practice I've been doing on my new tablet! It's been a good long while since I've had an upgrade so learning new brushes and how this tablet works has been fun!

Hello! I'm markerslinger! Here's two newer pieces and some evergreens!

Here's a blow up and a catalog!

Recently got a new tablet and testing it out!

Just in time for Summer yeti beach read season (definitely a thing), Whiteout is now available on every Ebook platform at a discounted price ($3.99). Nothing says summer like drunken monster hunting adventures in the Himalayas. books2read.com/NickVentnerW... #BookSky #Fantasy #Cryptids

Over the past weekend my lovely wife took me to a cabin for a birthday gift with some of our friends and we got to play a ttrpg I home brewed! Pitch: DOLLAR GENERAL Supernatural

It's my birthday today! @scariyaki.bsky.social got me a super cool ass trunk I'm gonna turn into my rolling wizard workshop and a ticket to an old fav the Blue Man Group show! I also finished inking 100 scenes for a new zine! Feeling really accomplished today! Also here's a peek at a new portent!

Alright, chapter 19 of Honeycomb Heart is officially my favorite, and not just because it has a cute moment inspired by one of the festivals in Stardew Valley. Gotta get through revisions so I can share it with everyone. #IndieAuthor #sapphic #romance #fantasy #writesky PS Guess which festival 😉

Hello #wipwednesday folks! I'm currently working on a zine that's a visual roll table for 100 encounters that either players or game masters can interpret based on vibes. Getting close to finishing it as I'm illustrating all 100 little scenes which range from weird, to horror, to fantasy.

Happy #cincodeMayo! 🌟🇲🇽 Imperialists go home!

I'd like to finish taking revision notes for Honeycomb Heart and complete half the remaining chapters of this draft. I'm 2/3 of the way there and want to keep up momentum! #queerwriters #lgbtqwriters

Same whiskey-drinking, monster-slaying action, new badass cover. Really thrilled with the work @markerslinger.bsky.social did on this cover. Working on getting this added to paperback, but ebook should be up soon. Audiobook not far behind! www.amazon.com/dp/B0G62X9QN... 📚💙

My newest project is THE ANIMORPHS COOKBOOK: a podcast dedicated to the KA Applegate series. Each episode features a comically in-depth critical examination of the books that transformed 90s kids into lifelong readers and rabid anti-imperialists in equal measure. www.patreon.com/AnimorphsCoo...

The main setting of a comic and a ttrpg I'm working on is a city called Beetle's Bauble. It's named that because it was "founded" by a renegade wizard whose tower got destroyed in a hurricane along with the wizard. A couple of decades later an adventuring party finds the destroyed tower...

Just saw Hundreds of Beavers last night and I can safely say the praise this movie has gotten from people and the glowing recommendations from friends is well earned imo. Just great goofs and super charming from start to end
