I am excited to announce the upcoming release of my new creative outlet: The Violet Realm. This website is home to my creative works including published books and my own D&D world called Velorum.
Books:
My first poetry book will be published soon called “Sad Girl’s Melancholic Musings in Poetry”. The COVID pandemic in March 2020 changed my life. While we locked ourselves away, we had no choice but to look within. It was during that time that I started to write for the first time. First, I used the extra time to teach myself piano and after awhile fell in love with songwriting. The songwriting then lead to writing poetry – something I used to love doing as a child. Therefore, I felt it appropriate that my first published book be a collection of poems written over the past five years.
Dungeons & Dragons/Drinking:
There was a resurgence of interest in D&D when the TV Series Strangers Things came out. I remember my older brother playing this game extensively. However, when I asked my friends if they wanted to play they all said it was “too hard” or “takes too long to play” – hence the idea of writing my own campaigns came into fruition. I decided to create a world called Velorum inspired by the constellation Vela. The campaigns are scaled down to last about 2 hours and to be played casually be a group of friends – alcohol optional but highly encouraged for better storytelling.
Twitch:
The Violet Realm also ties into my other passion of ARPGs, especially Diablo IV which I stream regularly on Twitch. This platform also allows me to share other creative endeavors, such as drawing, cooking, music, my books and even online D&D.
Discord:
The accompanying Discord allows all of my worlds to be centralized into one community. It is a safe space for all of us to be ourselves and have fun. I welcome you all to join whether you are interested in my books, D&D or video games.
