The Suff, you say?

💀 "In America, at that moment, Yelena thought she heard an echo in the air. “In Soviet Russia,” she said, just to herself, “rabbit catches you.”

" “The_Suff.txt” taunted him upon the pristine white sand of his 4K background. If this was someone's idea of circumventing his sorting system they were about to receive a strongly worded email."

Got you added officially, so now you should get tagged in everything. Well, if other's choose to include your name in their tag list...Not everyone grabs all the names, understandably though since it is a lot of work. However, you will be tagged in each newsletter post and anything the team posts about 😁

💀 My first try in the fields of writing since my highschool days. Looking for honest feedbacks!

"Only one thing remained constant. The scent that got stronger as time passed — did it pass at all? — blending with the song in a way that brought an old memory to the surface of my mind, one I did not even know existed, one that I felt was not mine."

💀 what happens when a goddess goes missing and a devout follower goes to find her? Wellllll...

"Lou, before I step into this place that will change the world as we know it forever, I gotta know… how did you know it was here? I mean, I’ve searched for years… how did you know?” Lou chuckled and nodded,

“My friend, The Fates hide nothing from those who aren’t afraid to ask them.” He was a poetic man, this much was true. Unfortunately for Borlen, he never understood poetry."

A bloody affair.

💀All the lawns on Madison Avenue are mowed on Wednesdays. It helps get the remaining blood off after washing on Tuesday.

💀 Here's a little piece I published on Halloween. It hasn't gotten much traction, especially compared to the Suff piece, but I'm guessing that's partly because of the (overly?) realistic title.

🪦Sadie recalls the events that made her realize she is a true clairvoyant. However, you might question her sanity.

"I remember the first time I knew I could see ghosts and for sure wasn't imaginin' things. My name is Sadie Wilkins, and I've accepted that I have an obligation to help spirits who reach out to me. Honestly, I don't have much of a choice. Spirits who seek me out won't leave me alone until I help them with whatever it is they need."
