DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:
"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Etaín marries a witchfinder. She yearns to fall in love but knows only fear, seeing and hearing things that others dont.A hideous monster whispers in her husband's ear, pointing out the witches. Will it point to her next? Etaín must stop fighting her nature and summon her own monster #DVpit #H #F

Etaín is a witch, wife to a powerful witchfinder. She yearns to fall in love and desperately searches for A Cure for Witching. But Cillian is as much of a witch as she, worse even. He uses a demon to hunt. She must stop fighting her own nature if she wants to save her town and herself #DVpit #H #F

Etain wakes on her wedding day to a witchfinder, levitating. As the Inquisition takes hold of her Irish town (in a future that's gone backwards), she can see banshees and demons working for the 'holy' men. Then her own powers grow when she finally confronts a creature living under her bed.

Created in the Garden, Lilith is not what (or who!) Father expected her to be. Her companion is jealous when she already knows the name of everything. How did this mistake happen?Who is she and why does she make him so angry? She seduces an angel and destroys 'paradise' to find out.

Etaín levitates the night before her wedding to a celebrated witchfinder. Forced to face the creature beneath her bed and the monsters all around her, she reckons with her powers, desperate to find a cure before her husband uncovers her. But he has his own creature whispering in his ear #DVpit #F #H

I just got a random message through my website’s contact form from someone who liked a story and now an entirely mediocre day is a day I’m going to be thinking about for months 😭😭😭 If you’ve ever thought about sending a writer a note about a story… you absolutely should do that. Please do that.

Etain wakes on her wedding day to a witchfinder, LEVITATING... As the Inquisition takes hold of her seaside Irish town in the backwards future-she sees demons and banshees working for witch hunters, as innocents die. Her own powers grow when she meets a creature living under her bed #bluepit #horror

I have to add 150 words to a story to bring it up to the 6000 minimum word amount for a submission call. Why is it so hard? What's going on 😅

The number one advice any & every writing professional can & will give you is this:
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SUCK.
You have spent years reading books, watching movies & TV, developing taste to know good from bad. NO ONE GETS TO READ YOUR WRITING UNTIL YOU LET THEM. Trust your taste & write fearlessly.
