So C.S. Taylor gave me the idea to use Tumblr aesthetics to describe my characters. I’ve always wanted to try this but just never had the time to do it. And then I thought — what better place to do it than in a post for my blog tour?
If you guys like this, I may do the cast of Smoke and Mirrors in the future!

Have you ever tried using Tumblr aesthetics to describe your characters (or even yourself)? How would you or some of your characters fit into the aesthetics I used? Feel free to share below!
This makes me so happy <3 What I love about using this is that certain elements of aesthetics are transferable to them within stories.
Definitely! I love to see the correlations. 😍 Going to have to use this method for future novels too!
I’ve honestly never done this with characters before, but seeing you and Cherise talk about it and do it now has made me rather enamoured of the idea. It’s a neat concept. And I LOVE all of your characters and their aesthetics! <3 So awesome!
Aww thank you so much! <3 I definitely recommend trying it out! It’s super fun! ^_^
