More Persephone~
So for those followers who didn’t find me through my Hades/Persephone stuff and don’t know about Receiver of Many by Rachel Alexander: It is a retelling of the Abduction of Persephone myth, and all the Hades/Persephone work that I’ve made so far have all been based on her book. She is finally getting the book published, and the first part of her book will be released on September 23.
I’ve already contributed to the Kickstarter so I’m actually not doing it for the giveaway (although you are welcome to!) I just want to spread the word because I owe a lot to this book and I’ve spent the past 9 months(!) just straight up doing art based on it.
I rarely stay in fandom for more than a month or two, and for this book to continuously inspire me to make more art has been a very new sensation for me. I willingly chose to have spent almost a year of what little free time I have just drawing Receiver of Many fanart, to the point that I’m actually making an entire illustrated fanfic based on her book.
My interpretation of Aidoneus and Persephone owes much to her writing. If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve seen from my Tumblr so far, you won’t be disappointed by her book. I fucking love it.
Right now her book is going on sale at Amazon, so grab it before the sale ends!
