Queer ND goth. I write spooky stories!
'What Happened at Hawthorne House', my debut, is out now!
Writing a second novella, a story in verse, and a collection of doll stories 🖤
Playing with poetry and interactive fiction 🖤

I have a gothic horror novella set in 1926, in which 9-yr-old Rosalyn plays a make-believe game of a Royal Court with 4 other girls. All of them want to (need to) be Queen... Things escalate. Dangerously.

I love how beautiful it is, and the soundtrack and imagery stuck with me

They were the first two horror films I watched after The Ring (the first horror film I saw) when I was roughly 13, and they had a major impact on my writing. They're still in my top 5 films.

Yes, that too. I find roots and vines and tendons so much more appealing than wires and circuits.
