Hobbies & Interests

Tarot

"Tarot has always been a huge part of my life. To this day, I still have my first deck, "Stella's Tarot," as seen on the popular japanese drama, Maou. I've been using it to do readings for the books I read and even the characters themselves. I may even do some for my new release!"

Archery

"Traditional archery relaxes me. My stamina isn't the best, but I enjoy making up competitive yard games that involve archery. I've come up with one that involves gluing a deck of cards to a poster board, and then seeing who can make the best poker hand with their arrows. Recurve bows are my favorite. Sometimes I take on projects painting them, because silver-tipped bows were my trademark in MMO games I used to play."

Astrology

"I like to study fictional characters in movies and shows by comparing their actors to their star signs. All of the placements are important, not just the sun. (Though it thinks so) Mine says:

Comic Books

"I stay up to date with the new comic releases every week. As a huge fan of collecting my favorite variants, adding them to my hoard have become a favorite past time of mine. DC Comics only, especially anything Batman related. That means Detective Comics, numerous crossover events, Titans, Hellblazer, and especially Nightwing. I never miss an issue!"

Gaming

"When I'm not working on anything productive, I like to spend some time relaxing on my PS5. I was one of those people watching the alerts every day and trying so hard to grab one. Eventually, after about a year of trying, I got a lucky opportunity through someone who knew someone who knew someone else, and was able to get one early.

A list of my favorites include the Legend of Dragoon, Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy 8, The Witcher 3, Uncharted, etc. I used to play Tekken competitively, but now I just enjoy playing for fun. The stress of competing with people who all thought they were the best just wasn't worth the hate mail. But right now, I only have time to obsess over Genshin Impact."

Art

"My own 'Lifepath,' has always been art. It's a huge part of my life and something I can't live without. After recently being gifted an XP Pen drawing tablet, I'm still struggling to adapt to the new digital medium instead of traditional ways. I had originally planned to draw everything relating to the book, such as the cover, the map, etc, but unfortunately time is of the essence. If I had waited, the book would never be published. So, I settled for sketching the character concepts and left the rest to the pros. 

Recently, I've fallen in love with my 3D printer, the Elegoo Mars. See more art on the character page!"

Binders full of women trading cards.

Trading Cards (TCG)

"Even since elementary, I've been obsessed with collecting cards. All kinds of cards, it doesn't matter. I was that person that always brought their albums to school and traded away all of my really good ones for the really cute ones. (I regret nothing!) I remember running around my apartment complex at 2am when I was little, yelling at the other kids to trade me something for my Bulbasaur.

During my lunch break in High School, if I wasn't reading, I was dueling someone in Yu-Gi-Oh!

I loved making my own cards, especially as gifts. And enjoy hoarding more obscure binders, like Final Fantasy cards, or Yu Yu Hakusho. I even have Panini football cards. Why? Because I like football. (Go Saints!) If it has a card, I will collect it. And it doesn't stop with physical cards either, I spent plenty of time online playing Gwent and Magic the Gathering."

TTRPG (Tabletop)

"Tabletop RPGS like DnD have inspired the story of "Cove of Storms." I enjoy the productive hobby of journaling my campaigns and really enjoy playing solo." 


Playing Apothecaria while Role-playing as Mark Blackthorn from The Dark Artifices series.

Aside from those, I also enjoy
singing aloud to classic rock, watching true crime, lock-picking, and re-watching Supernatural.
