Now that I think about it, doesn't Alberu have like, a bunch of brothers and sisters? Then like, Zed had a lot of partners, though I suppose he only officially married the third prince's mother and the rest are concubines like Alberu's mother. So like, didn't Zed kill his siblings in the fight for throne? Or was it in another story? Did he like, ever think that his successor might choose his path and kill the rest of his kids and perhaps his own father too to sit on the throne?

And this third prince whom Zed favored, I was like, dying to know his name in the beginning. And Alberu's mothers name too. Then I just went like, if the third prince's name was like something long, complicated and hard to pronounce, wouldn't it be hilarious. I can imagine Cale's and Choi Han's reaction when they hear the name for the first time. Cake would just give up cuz it's too hard to say and he couldn't be bothered lol.

Back to the Crossman family. There are so many members there. Like damn. Wouldn't the tea within the family be quite juicy? Like, I can imagine all the family drama behind the doors? The public might not be aware of it, because they like to keep a good image and all. But I am very curious of all the sh*t happening within the palace. I've always thought about it from the day I've heard Zed have multiple kids from multiple women. When Cale hears all the drama, he'd be like, damn, I was right in thinking that nothing would do good if I get involved with you. He might enjoy the tea, but he'd be too scared to get his slacker life dream ruined.

i do actually want to share the highlight of my day which was when our editorial mentor said something in his extremely british accent and one of the girls mimicked him and he gave her a look like he was affronted about this. and she stared him dead in the eyes and said “hey what day is it” to which he took a moment while we lost our minds and then replied “it’s between monday and wednesday”

My designs for the Adventurers Guild Main apprentices! I love these guys, I made designs for them a WHILE ago but that art is old and not as good as something I could make now, they’re mostly based on the descriptions of the books but there were some parts that weren’t described that I could have fun with

"I wish I knew what it was about horses," she would say as she slithered off again. "Why does one like them so much?"

"It's been like that since there were men and horses in the same world. But make no mistake about it, it's the men who need the horses, not the other way round. Horses did fine on their own."

The Fabulous Zed Watson! by Basil Sylvester and Kevin Sylvester

The literary scavenger hunt of a lifetime, starring an endlessly endearing non-binary tween

Zed Watson loves a few things: their name (which they chose themself!), their big rambunctious family, and—oh yeah—monsters. When Zed discovered the mystery surrounding an unpublished novel called The Monster’s Castle, they were completely hooked. Now Zed is a member of a small but dedicated legion devoted to finding the long-buried text.

When a breakthrough discovery leads Zed to the route that they are sure will take them to the treasure, they know it’s time for a road trip. And with the help of their shy, flora-loving neighbour, Gabe, and his sister, Sam, a geologist who is driving back to college in Arizona, Zed and company are soon off on a wild adventure following cryptic clues.

But it’s not all fun and games. Gabe doesn’t like Zed’s snacks, Sam is a bossy driver with total command of the ancient Impreza’s stereo, and Zed is often misgendered. It’s a good thing they also encounter kind strangers, potato-themed dance-offs and lots and lots of ice cream along the way. If Zed and Gabe can combine their strengths, survive Sam’s wrath and best the greedy historian who’s also hot on the book’s trail, they just might find the greatest treasure of all.

Co-authored by child-parent duo Basil Sylvester and Kevin Sylvester, this is a vibrant and enormous-hearted story about friendship, identity and belonging. It features illustrations by celebrated author and illustrator Kevin Sylvester, and an Own Voices perspective based on Basil’s experience.

Please help me to spread word of this new book.  It has been a project of mine for nearly two decades and it is very difficult to have an artist work found amongst the flood of AI generated works.  Swoggle from Hoggendoggle was originally written by Eric in the early 1990s for a creative writing class. Eric later hand drew and painted the story revising it for submission to a cartoon contest.  These images have been reworked for the creation of this book.  No AI used in the art nor contents of this book.
