If you'd like a physical copy, I'll be doing an interest check, and if I have enough people who would like one, I'll be doing a print run ^w^ It's all or nothing, so I need to ensure there'll be enough orders before I can officially send it off to print! :D If your name is on the interest check, I'll reach out directly if there are enough for preorders

"Her emotions get bottled up so much that when it explodes, she can get quite mean"

Another art trade with @tiffyelefano! These characters are from her project, Those Left Behind in Alder Creek. Luna and June are childhood friends from a small town who are navigating turning points in their young adult lives.

I've been familiar with these characters for years, and I'm excited to revisit my old friends each time. This time I wrote fanfiction about rising tensions and misaligning perspectives between the pair. June finds out what happens when her plans involve her most emotionally repressed friend—who is somehow also cuttingly perceptive—and the worst timing possible.

Tiffy is a long time friend and an incredibly talented artist, so you should check out her drawings of my angel ocs [here]!
