A Witchy Diary

The lovely nemophilist is having another FREE Book Giveaway for her books A History of Madness and Haze at self_published.

Haze Summary: 

When Eliza Owens gets a phone call in the middle of the night from a girl she’s never met, she doesn’t know what to think. The girl introduces herself as Paige, and says she used to date Erik Stern, Eliza’s fiancé. What’s more, she has something important to discuss.
The only problem? Paige has been dead for years.

Believing it to be a sick prank, Eliza tries to force it from her mind until Sam, Eliza’s older sister, tells her she met Paige only a few weeks before. And, according to Sam, Paige has nothing nice to say about Erik.

The fight which follows shatters the lives of everyone involved, and Erik disappears without a trace.

Five years later, Erik returns to town after his father’s death. Old wounds quickly resurface, and with them several burning questions. None the least of which is: Who spoke to Eliza and Sam if it wasn’t Paige? And why?

A History of Madness Summary:

The four remaining fugitives are now spread across the Kingdom. And with the fate of the others unknown to him, Nate Anteros prays for a fast execution.

Yet execution does not come. After a meeting with the King which leaves Nate questioning his sanity, he’s sent to a workcamp in Argon Basin for five years of hard labour. It’s there that Nate learns what became of his friends upon their arrest.

And as his strength returns to him, and he’s plagued by dreams which are much too real to be ignored, Nate decides five years is far too long to wait …

I haven't done commissions in FOREVER, but I'm kind of desperate at the moment. I have some bills coming up and groceries are needed, as well as savings for the upcoming arrival of the baby, and instead of just asking for money, I prefer to give something for them. The Gods gave me an art talent after all, so...

Keep in mind, I AM seven months pregnant, so soon I won't be able to do much but sit on my butt anyway, so I figured this was a good time.

Things I will be able to do:

Graphic design work (1-2 iterations):
- Wallpapers ($3) computer size and lower size
- Banners ($3) No more than 300x400 pixels
- Manips ($5) all sizes
- Book Covers for indie books ($10) - if I need to use my stock imagery account this might include the cost of the stock photo too.
- Logos, icons, other graphics, custom graphics - we can discuss ($3 - $10)

Digital art, fandom or original:

- Pastel, Marker or Colored Pencils 8x10 ($25)
- Digital, Photoshop or Illustrator or Sketchbook 8x10 ($30)
- Black and White ink ($15)
- Coloring Book page ($10)

Pet Portraits:

- Ink ($20)
- Pastel or Colored Pencil ($25)
- Digital, Photoshop ($35)

Here are my portfolios to see my work:

I've done several big bangs, banners, and original award banners for lots of fandom communities. I've got about 15 years of design experience. Most of my professional work is graphic design, prototyping and web design. Painting and drawing is mostly a hobby at this point but I've done it since I could hold a pencil.
I will give a sample sketch to show you before you pay once we discuss subject matter and terms.

Keep in mind that I will not ask for payment until after the work is complete. I will be using Paypal only. I would feel super guilty if I got paid even a portion and could not deliver.

Please share if you can! Thanks!

PS: Another thing that would help out if you haven't bought my book Unbridled. It's at Amazon.
Even though I don't get royalties until two months later, it would help later.
The e-book is $2.99 and the physical copy is $11.99. If you would like a physical copy signed by me, I can send you one for $10.

Thank you very much everyone!

iy_wiltedrose - A Fanfiction Challenge Community dedicated to Kikyou, from Inuyasha.

If anyone on my flist is a Kikyou lover, it looks like this comm could use some active members. I'm actually very excited about this. It could help me finish up my 30shards claim as well as get me back into a quiet fandom.

Also, I saw some preview clips for Heroes Season 3 with the actors and the plot bunnies are stirring. I can't wait for the new season. I suppose I better write my pre-Season 3 fics before they become AU on me. We'll see. :-)

I watched Iron Man again tonight. Maybe some fic soon? Possibly.

EDIT: Also, inuyasha_lims is looking for some more sign ups. They seem pretty desperate. I know I don't have time to make icons and I signed up! So you can too. Hopefully... PLEASE??
