Vengeance and VodkaA Standalone Story about Feminine Rage and Devine Punishmentopen.substack.com#bluepithype inspiration I’ve been an avid lifelong reader and urban|paranormal|contemporary fantasy are my favorite genres! I wrote BB&D to fill the gap where black, 30+ women, and mothers are often left out from these adventures. Representation in this genre inspires me. #writesky #ov #poc

#bluepithype character q&a 3/3 I created these characters to show “Happily Ever After” is just the beginning. So many women’s stories “end” with a marriage and baby and it’s important to me to write a story where she comes back to herself and thrives even if she’s a little rusty at first! #writesky

#bluepithype character q&a 2/3 The antagonist of BB&D is the most insidious type of villain. They believe they’re doing the right thing and that their moral code exempts them from wrong they do. They hurt Jamie in the past but “balanced” the wrong. Their mistaken belief destroys them in the end.
