Hey folks,

I'm just one me. And this one me still has a day job (crazy, right?), and since COVID-19, that day job has become a whole lot more demanding of my time and words. Regardless, I have nothing but time on my side and frankly, I'm sleeping maybe 3-4 hours per night. If that.

Classes on content creation and ecommerce

Hey folks!

[366 Days of Monsters] Day 73/366 - Usteusian Liberator

Although the appearance of Usteus' liberators can still be somewhat off-putting to those unfamiliar with the celestials, their basic humanoid shape and wings are a little more familiar and angel-like than those of their companions, the punishers. Although the majority of liberators have a feminin...
