New story idea I’m working on about #blackvampires. I used to love supernatural stories as a kid with vampires and werewolves and such, but as I grew up I convinced myself I couldn’t write in that sphere because I rarely saw people who looked like me in them. That changes now. #writingcommunity

I’ll give you a hint #smoke 🤣

Meet “Charon’s Rebirth”☺️

DRACULA X JANE EYRE

Keiron was four the first time he looked Death in the eyes and saw himself peering back—a thin, black thread heavy with the weight of silence hanging between them.
