Empire of Storms #MaasThirteen Blog Tour + Giveaway!




Hello and welcome and how are you and HUZZAH! Today is a most special day: it is the my day on the Maas Thirteen Empire of Storms blog tour! *tosses confetti in the air* I've been so honored to be a part of the last two Throne of Glass tours, and I'm keeping up the tradition of doing something arty and way too time consuming in the name of one of my fave fantasy series by drawin' you some picture stuffs.

My Heir of Fire blog tour post | My Queen of Shadows blog tour post

First up is a hand-lettered desktop or phone background! The name "Fireheart" is a really important one to the series, to Aelin, and to this book in particular. Not to mention is makes my feels go all extra feelsy. Aelin is the light-bringer, the light in the dark, the fire to clear away the storms (at least, we all hope...THERE'S STILL A WHOLE OTHER BOOK OF DOOM TO COME). So I made some fun glowy letters that (hopefully) look like Aelin herself wrote them with fire against a stormy background.

I ran out of time on this WIP--did you know art took a long time? surprise!--but let's just think of it as...concept art for the upcoming show! I like that. Sounds professional. Anyway, here's Aelin using those kickass blue flames she pulled out in one of the best scenes in the book (so far. I'm only on page 250. SPOIL ME AND GET A FACE FULL OF BLUE FLAMES.)

wooo yay bad ass glowy sketchy Aelin woo yass


That's all for me today. Make sure to hit all the stops on the tour and enter the INTERNATIONAL giveaway!
