Life Update + Ramblings

on By

Hiiiiii ☺️ Its me, Tristin. (Long rambling post up ahead!)

I wish I had some big update to share but unfortunately I don’t have anything yet but trust that I’m working my damn hardest to get there. Ik I’m horrible at staying present and posting about my writing journey and that is something I’m working on being better about. I will say January has already started off with a bang. I began posting weekly progress wrap ups, special bts stuff and wip teasers on my Substack (which you should subscribe to) I’ve also started posting again across social media and creating pretty aesthetic content on my new TikTok account (tristinclark_) but besides those things, overall, I’m just doing wayyyy better mentally, physically and spiritually. I’ll be honest… my mental health journey has been quite rough since 2023. I won’t get too into it but all I’ll say is that I was not okay. I could barely function let alone write or post content. I was burnt out… bad. But after 3 yrs, I’m more than fine now and back to my old smiley, bubbly, dorky, happy self. I even started working out too! I lost myself somewhere over the years but now that I’ve found me again, I’m never letting me go. What’s crazy is it’s only Jan 15th and I think I’ve already wrote more this year than half of last year 😅 If that doesn’t show progress then idk what to tell ya.

I set a goal for myself this year to kick ass and get shit done and I’m just proud of myself for already coming so far.

I’ve got a lot of work and writing ahead of me but I know I’ll get there. I won’t stop otherwise. So, stay with me and follow along. I’ve got so many new stories coming and I seriously cannot wait for you all to read them all ☺️

Thank you for reading and being here 💕

A War Amongst The Stars Fun Fact Plus More!

on By

The vampire author office vibes are certainly vibing 🕯️🥀

Fun fact about A War Amongst The Stars I bet a lot of you didn’t pick up on while reading. So, we know The Darkness and The Light are the creators of the universe who gave light and life to everything we know. We also know a ton of origin stories originated from them (magic, wishes, soulmates, heart mates, gods…well, there’s two tiny scenes in awats where Nolance consumes a drop of Serena’s light and blood and she’s just like “weird he’s done that twice now.” And way back when magic still existed on planet, mates would bind their fate with a ceremony that included drinking from one another. You see where I’m going with this? Yep. Safe to say we can add a vampire origin story to the list too. 🧛🏻‍♂️🩸

There’s a very…um special scene in book two that happens in ch one, A Wish Amongst The Souls that I CANNOT wait for you to read. I can’t give away anymore info about it but when you read it…you’ll def be like WTFFFFF!?

And don’t worry, more will be explained on the origins of vampirism but it’ll def be something different from what we’re already accustomed to knowing. All origin stories gotta start from someone and daddy Nolance sure has started a lot 😅

And as always, this series is setting up a whole universe of stories to come that I have been tirelessly working to bring to publication. Y’all just wait. We’re going to be seeing more than just celestial gods. We’re getting EVERYTHING! 🤩

JOIN ME ON SUBSTACK!

Yep! I’m now on Substack.

What is Substack? You’re probably wondering.

Substack is an online platform that enables writers and content creators to publish newsletters directly to our subscribers inboxes, offering both free and paid subscription options which come with different perks. The layout is pretty cool. It has notes which is basically like Threads, and then there’s posts where only free and paid subscribers can see. It’s where I’ve migrated and where I intend to spend most of my time sharing my writing journey with all. There, you’ll find the real, raw ramblings and random thoughts of my author mind, exciting announcements and updates, reveals, character art drops, behind the scenes info and teasers of my current work in progresses, exclusive giveaways, author and/or story fun facts. And sometimes a daily look into my life and creative process. You’ll certainly see a more personal side of me there which I hope you love.

Basically, I plan on combining everything I post across all my social media platforms into one place, plus adding even more!

If that sounds like something you’d be into, then by all means…please join me there and follow and/or subscribe so you do not miss out.

That’s all for now!

Take care and happy wishing!
