It’s time for a #firstpagefriday today I’m showing off my feature TO HELL WITH LOVE

“When a grieving teenager descends into Hell to rescue his lost love, he must navigate a nightmarish underworld filled with grotesque horrors and deceptive allies in one day or else he is stuck there forever.”

Happy #firstpagefriday! HUNGER MOON: After her father is bitten and begins transforming into a werewolf, a determined young daughter battles to keep their family afloat, running the food cart by day and chaining the monster in their basement by night.

First Page Friday!

WHAT REMAINS

Logline: After the sudden death of her husband, a grieving woman retreats to his childhood home, where she begins communicating with what she believes is his ghost, only to spiral into obsession.

It’s The Babadook meets The Hunger with some Under the Skin.
