Darkling Issue (or Happy Birthday Leigh!)

Friday, April 6, 2012
I'm forgoing the Friday Picture Post today for something I think you will like better.

It's my friend, and agent sister, Leigh Bardugo's birthday today, and I wanted to make her something to help her celebrate.

If you know me at all, you know I lurve Photoshop, but I love hot guys even more. Put those two things together and what do you get? A fake magazine for bad boys.

That's how ROGUISH was born. And when I fell in love with the Darkling from Leigh's forthcoming SHADOW AND BONE, I knew I had to make him a Roguish cover.

So here, in all his dark and bad glory, is the Darkling issue of Roguish.



HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEIGH! 

I hope you have a good one, and do exotic and fun activities, like skydiving from an airplane whilst wearing an Egyptian headdress, or something.

  2. Ha! *loves* I don't know who this male model is IRL, but dude, he looks exactly how I picture The Darkling. Nice choice.

    I can't wait for the rest of the world to read Shadow & Bone. They're in for a treat.

    Also, I already told you, Leigh, but, Happy Birthday!

    Hugs,
    Lola

    1. Oh the Darkling! <333

      The model is Sean O'Pry and I am in love with him. I've also used him as inspiration for one of my characters. He's just so damn sexy.

  4. Oh my stars! What is this windfall of awesomeness?!

    The Darkling...*swoon* Damn he's fine! Is it possible to fangirl a book I haven't yet read?

    Also, who do we need to contact to make ROGUISH a reality? :P

  7. Omg. I. This is so. I. I cant even type. So amazing. I haven't surfed the internet for The Darkling for a long time. Shame on me. Amazing though. I completely want it. Amazing. I feel like a stalker now (because I wanna know everything that is written on the front cover). :|
