“Ninth House” by @lbardugo .

annabethisterrified:

I’m about at the point of that dude in Ninth House who undergoes a painful, intense blood ritual so that his novel will write itself

We’ve all been there, my friend.

Alex and Dawes as soon as they realize what actually happened to their Golden Boy™ Darlington: We abandoned our boy. WE ABANDONED OUR BOY!!!

Here’s my piece for @GuzuGallery’s “Binge” art show, which is open through January 7! The Good Place is one of my favorite shows right now, and I was so excited for the chance to draw these characters.

The Gentleman of Lethe

chaotickoalas:

My mom was looking for something quick to read so I got her to read The Language of Thorns by @lbardugo

When she gave it back to me the only thing she said was:

“That woman has a very strange mind, I approve.”

Why thank you, ma.

My favorite quote ever from a review  is from Jason Sheehan’s very kind review of The Language of Thorns on NPR. He’s talking about good and bad fairy tales:

The bad ones sing Careful what you wish for and Sometimes pretty isn’t as important as smart with choruses of cute mice and bluebirds. But the good ones don’t end before there’s blood on the knife.

The good ones understand that scars are the best teachers.

And Leigh Bardugo gets that. I don’t know where she learned it. She seems like a perfectly nice person.

She seems

like a perfectly nice

person.

He said with more hope than confidence.

Dawes in her noise canceling headphones. I love this SO. MUCH.

So many men had tried to make her a queen. Now she understood that she was meant for something more. For the living and the dead, she would make herself a reckoning. She would rise.
