📖🧿c.o. lopez! (he/xe/it)🧿📖

completely changing the beginning of your book after literal years of having it start one way is a fascinating experience

just like any non-mutated beast

he craves the tangy goodness

guess who is now in revision purgatory :p

my debut novel dropping next year, 'sons of god', is a queer retelling of the fall of lucifer. there's fruity angels, body horror, and transgender allegories running through its veins. horrible bad things happen.
look for it on 9/29/2026! check out my websire for CWs :))

i actually don't know what you mean with that second part

so like i hate genAI with a passion but the whole 'clankers' trend and whatever other words people have come up with feels fucking vile to more people than me right. right???

same here! that's why my pen name is so distinctly different from both my legal and chosen names

sure thing! i guess the only issue that could possibly come up is if you did something goofy and used...a really famous author's name/pen name but obvs i doubt that's what you're wanting to do

i mean i just started using mine. afaik there's no need to register it with anything. when i said i was c.o. lopez, i just...was. because it's my pen name

soooo new paradise lost album came out yesterday 👀👉🏽👈🏽 what's everyone think. i for one have been frothing at the mouth (positive)

i've gotten all of these :))

a poorly drawn brown-skinned angel wearing a red kilt. the angel's head is one large floating eye and it has four white wings floating around it

new pfp until i either commission a cool one or draw a slightly less cool one

whenever i write all of the transgender allegory stuff in sons of god (hit 20,000+ words today! btw!!!) my brain is basically rubbing its hands together like a fly. lucifer is literally soooo transgender did you know that

got my website up a bit ago! not much right now, but hopefully soon......

i recently decided to start doing a monthly update thing on tumblr, at least until i get my website up and running so i can make blog posts there. i'll still post links to it on tumblr, tho...in the meantime, here's july's!

now 15,915 :')

lucifer is very much supposed to come across as a masking autistic+psychotic person! he originally starts off as very kind and loving, altruistic even, then gradually deteriorates over time from how much is expected of him and how he has to be strong for everyone else but has no one to turn to

i've officially reached 10,000+ words with sons of god.....sometimes i forget i'm actually making progress tbh. but i am!!!

333?

'shrines' by paradise lost is like The closing credits song in my head for sons of god...it also happens to be one of my favorite songs ever

is there some kind of thing i can put in my writing along the lines of 'don't use this for AI garbage' (in more formal words ofc)

NEVER KILL YOURSELF NEW PARADISE LOST ALBUM IN SEPTEMBER

okay i just want to say that every time y'all cross my feed i think of this post and it always reassures me. i'm a queer person that constantly has to walk on eggshells and something that's super important to me is knowing the bands i listen to aren't people who would actively hate me. rock on 🖤🤘🏼

am intrigued 👀

hey so like...i'm on here practically never anymore! funny how that works
*but* somewhere i am on a lot is tumblr (nekrotikon)! i'm not deleting my bluesky account, but i figure it'll become more of a backburner type of thing. i probably won't be on here much til i have some real promo to do
