If Rings of Power mixed with House of the Dragon plus The Great had a baby, you’d have… ⚔️ The Masked Princess ⚔️ #writersky 💙📚

The Call of Chaos is The Mummy x Sorcery of Thorns. A deeply atmospheric gothic, dark fantasy horror. Why settle for one genre when you can have 3! #booksky📚💙 #bookcommunity #writingcommunity (yes I am reposting this, I messed up the tags the first time shhh)

should i be writing my plot outline? yes. was i writing a short essay about lucille sharpe's sapphicism in crimson peak - also yes

one of the best books i’ve read this year 🖤 truly unforgettable and delicious
