WELCOME, KIND STRANGER!

I have been quiet for a while. Let me reintroduce myself or, if you found this as the pinned post on my blog, introduce myself to you.

WHO ARE YOU? Ruby, twenty-two as of writing this post, she/her, from Germany. I’m a writer, artist, and also design graphics and the occasional book covers.

WHAT DO YOU WRITE? Anything I feel like writing. Usually that’s fantasy—high, urban, you name it—but I also write contemporary stories and the occasional fanfiction. In terms of target audience, my books are either YA/NA or have no target audience at all.

WHERE CAN WE READ YOUR WRITING? You can find my original works on Tapas (active) or Wattpad (semi-inactive), and my fanfics on AO3.

Secondly, let me tell you about my works:

ONGOING:

JELLIE: A Band Story – contemporary NA web serial novel. A reserved writer teams up with a passionate singer to write songs and joins her band; cue rise to fame and ultra-slowburn sapphic romance.

Queen Bees Only – contemporary YA deconstruction. The popular mean girl has to save the naïve new girl from her controlling, manipulative bad boy ex and ends up falling for her herself.

Sunlit Mage – urban fantasy YA, sequel to Twilit Mage (see below). A spoiled heir and a quiet exchange student have to put aside their rivalry when the latter’s unusual powers make him the target of a magical hate group.

Mean Boys – sports dramedy webcomic. A boy who’s been admiring a basketball player since fifth grade finds himself teaming up with his idol in high school to help him connect with their team.

COMPLETED:

Twilit Mage – urban fantasy YA. In a divided mage society, a girl descended from both sides must prove her place in the one that admitted her while finding out who framed her as an enemy spy.

The Colorless Land – epic fantasy. When a tween boy escapes from a dystopian society with a priceless magical artifact, he and the people around him become the target of soulless soldiers and get caught up in an impending war. Basically Lord of the Rings meets Studio Ghibli with extra diversity.

Shut Up, Cinderella – YA/NA fantasy romantic comedy-drama, fairytale retelling. A grumpy shoemaker gets dragged to the prince’s ball and must protect his identity when the latter enlists his help to search for his “lost love.”

Book of Gold – YA urban fantasy. A psychic boy and a girl raised by fae are sent on a quest to search for a long-lost treasure across mythologies from all over the world, but not all is as it seems.

ON HOLD:

The Colorless Army – epic fantasy. Direct continuation of The Colorless Land, so I really can’t say any more without spoilers.

Two Monsters in a Car – urban fantasy comedy. A vampire and werewolf agent who’ve been pining for each other for 3000 years go on a road trip to retrieve an ancient artifact of doom. Hilarity ensues.

That’s it for now! It’s a pleasure to meet you!
