So Alien Clay is basically Annihilation. Just with elephants.
It is. Pacat said so in an interview once :-)

Digital painting of two male characters against a dark red background. On the left, Asche has long black hair, pale skin, and sharp fangs visible as he leans in with a predatory smile, his hands resting on the shoulders of the other man. On the right, Vindt has a short blond beard, and long blond hair tied back. He gazes outward with a defiant expression. The image conveys tension and intimacy.
Cover of the fantasy novel Ocean’s Blood by Thelma Mantey. The artwork shows a mysterious, otherworldly figure with long, flowing black hair and intricate, swirling white markings covering their face and body. Their eyes are closed and their expression is intense and ethereal. The background is a dark, stormy oceanic blue, with faint mirrored imagery of the figure behind them. The title "OCEAN'S BLOOD" is in bold white serif font above the figure, and below it reads “BOOK 1 OF THE DROWNING.”
A stolen voice. A forced bond. And the choice between freedom & the one he can't quite hate.

The promo image is yellow and brown colors, with a faded yellow magic glyph with foreign characters. Text reads as follows: “After Nimaka’s death and the older selves returning to their own time, Kylie ran from all she’d known and grown up with at North Opal Pines, but she soon learns she can’t run far or fast enough. She thought she could leave it all behind: go back to being a normal high school student, make new friends, keep her grades up and her mother happy. But Nimaka’s death has only rallied the two others, and now they’ve stalked Kylie to her new school. Even worse, they have a mysterious new leader who no longer seeks to just kill Kylie but all those she knows and loves…. and the body count is rising. Kylie can’t get by on “just surviving” anymore: to protect herself — let alone those around her — she must become as strong and cunning as Siani was, or everyone she’s ever known and loved will die with her.” Illustrated character art for Kylie Rae, Jordan Boyle, and Maya Van Daele are together. To their right are mockups of an ereader, smartphone, and print book that has Riyati Ripple’s cover. Under the mockups is the text “riyati.ink/ripple” in a bubble.
In which I looked at the Riyati cast and went "hm. I can add more ND fMCs to this" and as such, did so. Okay and maybe more trauma too, but that's a perk, not a deteriment! And this time, less toxic friendship with free bromance 👀

A grid of 5 images, at the top the words "I DIDN'T EXPECT 'GO TO HELL' TO BE CAREER ADVICE" and at the bottom "HELL IS WORK" The images are, in order: 1 - An angel with a glowing orange halo casting him in a red light. 2 - A businessman stares at his shadow which has horns and a tail. 3 - The central image is a customized pentagram sigil with the name VIRGIL MORA around it in a circle 4 - A weeping man is crouched in a tunnel cut off from the light outside 5 - A man in a white suit is back-to-back with a man in a black suit. They are holding hands
"Virgil Mora burned in Hell. It was a pretty good job."
Virgil has 3 months to turn around a vampire ran Ohio gas station to save Lucifer, the angel he's fallen for, from a celestial pink slip. But old mistakes, come back to haunt him. Literally.

Haha. It was a great source of inspiration for me too 🙂
Book sirens too expensive? It paid off for me :-)
If you don't mind a self-rec 😊 Ocean's Blood is dark (m/m) fantasy with (true!) enemies-to-lovers, complex, morally gray MCs and a unique magic system. It's book 1 in a trilogy. No HEA here, but the ending isn't sad, either

Nice idea btw. I might copy it some day ;-)
If anyone has an in-development novel and wants to exchange #betareading , I'd really like some new eyes on my MS! I like queer lit, SF, and fantasy, YA or adult. Mine's a queer-led far-future SF coming-of-age YA with a sapphic romance in it. I'd like authentic volunteers, not paid pros please.
Providence Girls by Morgan Dante 🙂

Thank you! 💖🙏
Hey Bsky! I was wondering if someone w/ a KU subscription outside of the US or UK could do me a favor? It'd require downloading my book, Ocean's Blood, & navigating 2 pages in. That's IT 🙂 I want to test a theory. I'd offer an ebook as payment, but since you're on KU already... ;-)
