In my latest research post, I'm harping on about daffodils and my unending search for a sufficiently skanky white floral fragrance.

Do you play D&D? Ever wondered what you'd do if a High Lord took you away? Join me for The Wolf and the Wall - An ACOTAR Homebrew campaign. Start in the dwindling town of Ashford, bound by one resolve - to survive the coming winter. And the wolves draw ever nearer, clawing for the same.

I live for these two men and the words that pass between them. I can't wait to see how the reader views their relationship...

"Worn out already?" he asks, a smirk playing at his lips.

"My years weigh on me."

"And so soon."

I study him, sidelong. A soft wine flush spans his cheeks. He's loosened his collar, his legs stretched out as he looks out over the grounds. A lock of hair has slipped out from its fastening, and now keeps sliding from behind his ear, yet the shape of him reads only as elegance and ease."

Text snippet: "This is all wrong. It's all wrong, and the contract is binding. My ears roar, consuming my every sense, pierced over and over by the ringing spike of my pulse. A surging wave and a baying hound, flooding me, the room, the whole house, and I grasp at the only anchor I can. Rue Preben."

A merchant has spent years building a beautiful life. The thing he built it over is beginning to stir.

Promotional graphic for PATRON. The book cover, featuring a dark still life with blue title text, is centred over a shadowy, candlelit classical painting. Hand-drawn blue arrows surround it, highlighting themes including supernatural dark literary fiction, bargains, deception, candlewax and gilded aesthetics, and the line: “terrified of being known; starving for it anyway.”

The characters of PATRON, distilled into scent. The Stranger: A candle lit in another room. The clink of silver bangles. Things steeped, prepared, known.
