They called me a dreamer like it was a bad thing, until my dreams started to come true.

My delicious love, I crave your embrace, your warmth, your heart, your eyes, your breath, and I crave to scatter your lips with my kisses, and embrace you with the eagerness of a madman.

Pain is just a puppet without the darkness there to do its dirty work.

❤️‍🔥 WE ARE INFINITELY DELIGHTED TO ANNOUNCE THAT COMEGRANATE, THE ZINE, IS COMING INTO THE LIGHT...

Comegranate is a postcolonial & feminist reinterpretation of the Garden of Eden. It imagines the ways in which imperialist structures have broken down our connectivity and communal intimacies. The rituals we have taken for granted are now all we have to cling to of the old world, and in a world of perpetual connection we are all still searching for something more.

This issue will explore feminine displacement in particular, taking into account the theory of Hélène Cixous’s ‘écriture féminine’, Luce Irigiray’s embodied divinity in the feminine & feminine displacement within language, and Anne Carson’s Autobiography of Red. We especially are looking for narrative work that includes dialogue of some kind (whether between two characters or between a character and the reader) to fuel the idea of a story within a story.

We are happy to organise shoots for stylists, photographers, hair/makeup artists,models, and any similar creatives. Please feel free to reach out to us with any concepts you are interested in or wish to execute.

I’ve felt kind of off about my book recently, I’ve had a lot of rejection and I’ve started to think maybe I should just quit.

But then I think: what if one day it’s real? What if one day there is an actual book in the world, with a real cover and real pages and my name written on the real spine? And what if people read it? Maybe one day there’ll be people who want to keep it perfect, who don’t even want to crack the spines, who will lament over the slightest crease to the pretty pretty cover, who’ll keep their copy on a clean, beautiful shelf so pristine and perfect, who’ll share with the pages their favourite book mark with it’s pattern or it’s quote or it’s ribbon or the thousand other things that could make it special; maybe one day there’ll be people who will fold the pages, who’ll crack the spine, who’ll panic because they accidentally dropped it in the bath, who’ll underline their favourite quotes with their favourite pencil that they always have to tell themselves to stop chewing the end of; maybe one day there’ll be people who’ll put pen against the pages, who’ll draw stars and hearts in the margins, who’ll share their every thought on every page that was worth something enough to them to write on; maybe one day there’ll be people who’ll choose the perfect coloured tabs to match the cover, who’ll create a key, who’ll deem me worthy of their favourite highlighters, who’ll be able to look at the pages of their closed copy, run their fingers over those perfect coloured tabs, and see their thoughts as they read laid out before them; maybe one day there’ll be people who’ll borrow it from libraries, who’ll wipe dust from the cover, even if it’s slightly faded with time beneath the plastic sheath who’ll write their names on a card glued neatly into the front so they are part of it forever.

What if I am lucky enough to one day see a book that is not just my soul, but the souls of readers as well?

Keep writing my loves, keep writing 🖤

Hopefully Enough

Hear them rustling behind you. Footsteps. How many? I promise you. More than you expect. Hopefully enough that when they are done, you will realize how desirable you are, and not just to me.

Woven Webs is a new online (non)literary magazine, run by Reed and Storm Editing and funded by Carclew, allowing us to pay creatives $100 per piece.

The magazine is inspired by “web weaving”, an online practice created here on Tumblr in which disparate media are presented together, united by a common theme, usually juxtaposing art traditionally seen as high and low brow.

Submit here!

My book 'The Twilight Code' is now available for purchase! Click here to access. ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆

As the clocks of Washington, D.C. strike twelve, an FBI agent finds himself cast adrift into another dimension.

Though a journey of space and time, he witnesses the fragility and grandeur of human existence, uncovering a deeper truth about connection, purpose, and the mysterious thread that binds life itself.

The Twilight Code is a bittersweet investigation of the wonder concealed within the human experience. The question is; will he make it past twilight?

By The Light Of The Broken Moon

Day five, you get poetry instead of prose. :D @remnants-of-rwby-events

This took longer than it should have done...

AO3 link:

Noises howling in the night, scratching at the storm house door

Nightmares bought once more to life, Beowulf or Nevermore?

Which of them is hungry now, for your deepest, darkest fears?

And which emotion felt today, has again now drawn them here?

Illuminated by the light of splintered beams and shattered moon

Whatever comes now of this fight, at least it will be over soon.

Weapons flashing in the gloom, flakes of gold and flecks of dust

An ozone scent is in the air as you move, for move you must

Training better far to have, than to unarmed now face the foe

Like so many others have, others try and others know

What it’s like to truly see, all that they might stand to lose

Yet still fight for other’s sakes, not to surrender, to refuse?

Hunters are a recent thing, Academies and schoolhouse taught

But the monsters move within everything your fears have wrought

And maybe yet, they are controlled, by some shadowed, distant threat

Or maybe not, their simple malice might be all that drives them yet.

And either way, you stand alone, even with others by your side

Their movements, too, must be their own, and your fate you must decide

Would you in death still take pride, in knowing things were fairly done?

Fight dirtier, and thus survive, or even branded coward, run?

The facets of your deepest self, the truth lain buried in your soul

May yet show itself tonight, even outside your control.

For Grimm are fear and nightmare wrought, bought to life by your belief

Maybe fairy tales aren’t real, and yet your monsters still have teeth.

In sunlight you might shake your head, ridden of this oldest fear

What in darkness you have met, may in daytime soon be clear.

Would you know the battle here, underneath a broken moon?

Win or lose, hope or fear… it will all be over soon.
