Thrilled to share that Dune: Messiah by Frank Herbert is now available as part of The Christmas Collection from The Folio Society! It was a dream creating 8 interiors, 10 chapter headings, cover, and slipcase for this illustrated edition. • I feel incredibly fortunate to have created work for a book I love so much, and I hope the images contribute something extra for readers. A huge thank you to The Folio Society and AD Sheri Gee for trusting me with this project and for taking such care in the production details. The end product is a stunning collector’s item that I’m very proud to be a part of. I can’t wait to share more of the work with you. • On creating the cover (without spoilers): The cover depicts Alia dressed in ceremonial garb as the head of the empire’s religious wing. Her rites and rituals strengthen the symbolism around Muad’Dib: a lowly desert creature transformed into an infinite godhead.
We wanted to keep continuity with FS’s edition of the first book, illustrated by Sam Weber (incidentally one of my favorite illustrators). So, Alia’s veil is a link back to Sam’s final illustration in Dune, which depicts Alia as small child. For me, the veil is a nod to the danger of prescience to lock the practitioner onto a fixed path, paradoxically limiting their view. Increasingly in Dune: Messiah, Alia represents religious dogma and the danger of having “blind faith” in a supreme figure or philosophy, so obscuring her eyesight seemed appropriate. And we also get this fitting line early in DM: “Such a rich store of myths enfolds Paul Muad’Dib…and his sister, Alia, it is difficult to see the real persons behind these veils.”

Read an excerpt: Nick and Charlie by Alice Oseman!
From the mega-bestselling creator of Heartstopper, a must-have novella in which Heartstopper's lead characters, Nick and Charlie, face one of their biggest challenges yet.
Tumblr media
Absence makes the heart grow fonder... right?
Everyone knows that Nick and Charlie love their nearly inseparable life together. But soon Nick will be leaving for university, and Charlie, a year younger, will be left behind. Everyone's asking if they're staying together, which is a stupid question... or at least that's what Nick and Charlie assume at first.
As the time to say goodbye gets inevitably closer, both Nick and Charlie start to question whether their love is strong enough to survive being apart. Charlie is sure he's holding Nick back... and Nick can't tell what Charlie's thinking.
Things spiral from there.
Everyone knows that first loves rarely last forever. What will it take for Nick and Charlie to defy the odds?

Skandar and the unicorn thief
Ok Guys
Most of you have probably never heard of this series before. 
So I’m going to tell you a little about it. 
In an alternate modern world, unicorns exist on the Island. (And they are ferocious monsters) Skandar Smith has always dreamed of being a unicorn rider, but when a mysterious villain by the name of the Weaver appears to steal the unicorns of bonded riders, it's up to Skandar to save the day.
There are different elements such as fire,water,air and earth.
The characters are really fun to read about and this is really a very fun book to spend your time on.
It’s really cool! So check it out. 
Me.

I wrote a chapbook and it got published!! I kept this on the down low for a while as final details were sorted out but it’s available today 🥳 Take a peek at the cover art and one of the poems included below! 
I’ve been writing for years now (If you didn’t know, now you know) and to finally have an actual collection put together and published has been a dream of mine forever. Working with @bottlecap-press has been a super smooth process and I’m so excited to have contributed to this indie press. 
I hope when I say this it is true, but "On the Diagonal" is only my humble beginning. It would be extremely supportive of you, whoever is reading this, to pick up a copy of my first solo published work. It would truly mean a lot to me. The link to purchase is here: https://bottlecap.press/products/diagonal  
Most of the poems in this collection were written in 2020, a few even earlier than that and a few from this year. I think the different time periods demonstrate a deeper level to the growth I’ve gone through as a writer, as my voice and poetic style has changed quite a lot over the course of my life. 
A chapbook is a micro collection of poetry, and I used that format to take a focused look at a period of my past. I think we all experience a heartbreak that changes us forever. "On the Diagonal" aims to put that metamorphosis into words that add another layer of beauty to the transformations we all go through.

» what format do you prefer to read the most? Ebooks, audiobooks, hardcovers, or paperbacks? hello my friends, I have been mostly favoring audiobooks lately. That way I can easily read while I am at work. Helps make the day go by faster. Which is why I’m so bummed that Godkiller hasn’t been picked up in the US. No US publisher = No audio.. but I am still reading it, I just have to read my pretty special edition and hope I don’t ruin it. » hashtags:. #Godkiller #HannahKaner #Illumicrate #bookstagram #fantasybooks #newrelease #newbooks #bookseries #prettybooks #bookaesthetic #bookart #bookstagrammer #bookstagramfeature #bookfeaturepage #ilovebooks #bookphotography #photography #bookreader #bookrecs (at Boise, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpBEZI5PH8R/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

📚 Were you gifted any books this holiday season? If so, what did you get? Happy Monday, Bookworms … anyone else heading back to work today? The past 5 days staying at home have been awesome. I don’t want to leave. 😂 Did you get any new books this holiday season? If so, what did you get? I gifted a few books to myself this season, (am I the only person who does that?), and my dear friend Kathy sent me two exciting new books as well. (One was *The It Girl* in paperback, which I am SO thrilled to finally have.) The hubby also bought me a new Kindle … which I really didn’t need, but very much appreciate. 🥰 I am very excited for all the new books. What about you guys? Did you get any exciting new books?? 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 #AlltheBooksDec22 #MyFictionalMusings #CourtofReadingDec22 #ReadingintheWeb 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 #newbook #newbooks #shelfie #bookshelf #mylibrary #bookcollection #reading #books #cozyreading #cozyvibes #bookstagram #currentlyreading #bookstack #booklover #booksbooksbooks #somanybooks #ilovebooks #booknerd #bookcommunity #booksaremagic #yabooks #romancebooks #fantasybooks #bookobsessed #bookphoto #readmore 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 https://www.instagram.com/p/CmocgxbuxL9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The ghola, Hayt: A being reconstructed from the dead flesh of the original man whose appearance “positively melts the female psyche,” a Tleilaxu thing who is both man and mask, bearer of gleaming metal eyes, a Mentat, a Zensunni philosopher, a swordmaster — a complex character, indeed. Truth be told, I did swoon a few times while painting this, though thankfully my psyche remains intact. • Created for the illustrated edition of Dune: Messiah from The Folio Society

Happy first day of 2023. How are you all spending this day? I'm staying at home. I've been reading and doing my workouts. I plan to cook later today and maybe take a walk too. 🥳 About the picture, it's just me showing the new books I got for Christmas. I haven't read any of them yet but I will definitely try to read them this year.
