Happy belated Valentine’s Day!

The footage in this vlog was taken throughout January as I drafted a short story from the perspective of Zale during the time of ii: The Rebel Coven…

I don’t actually write ‘romantasy’. It’s clickbait. I write high epic fantasy. The Sun and Moon Saga is high epic fantasy. That said, I ADORE a romantic subplot, don’t you?

I just prefer the romance to take a backseat to the adventure and the mystery, at least most of the time. The books in TSAMS are high epic fantasy with romantic subplots. In IV: Aurora and Luna, there is a love triangle. Aurora has two potential love interests. One of them, she meets at the end of i: The Misfit Princess, and their relationship develops throughout the course of ii: The Rebel Coven. The other, she meets in iii: The Near Impossible Quest, which comes out this Spring!

I may not be writing ‘romantasy’, but I did listen to my inner teenager when I was crafting these characters and their relationships with Aurora. If you love a love triangle that’s woven into an epic fantasy adventure, then you are going to love The Near Impossible Quest! Be sure to get caught up on TSAMS now so you’re all ready to embark on the quest come Springtime…

At the dawn of 2024, I decided to start drawing (somewhat) regularly. For many Moons I simply messed about in my sketchbook, and the only intention was to enjoy a creative act.

However, by the last quarter of the Solar cycle, my childhood dream of being my own illustrator had resurfaced—and I have been drawing concept art for The Sun and Moon Saga ever since!

I hope you find inspiration in my story and take up some new creative pursuit. Let’s normalise learning new skills in adulthood; life doesn’t end at age twenty-five.

Sincerely,

I have made a return to vlogging, which is nice because I really do enjoy rambling to the camera, from time to time.

Over the course of these last two Moons—the Hunter’s Moon and the Frost Moon—I have been going through a lot of internal changes. 2024 has been a very creatively fulfilling year, seeing as I did publish both i: The Misfit Princess and ii: The Rebel Coven. But it has also been a hectic year. Honestly, the pace I have worked at has not been a sustainable one. The burnout I was up against forced me to introspect more deeply, and ask myself what it is I truly want to focus on, what it is I truly want to create.

I discuss what this means for my art in this writing vlog…

Going forward there will be more vlogs, but at a pace I feel is healthy, both for myself and for my art.

Sincerely,

MD Luna
