YELLOWJACKETS x THE LAST HOUSEWIFE

The Flock wanted Hadley to be demure & obedient. She left. They stole her back & stripped her identity, remaking her into something masked & feral. Now the man she loves is coming for her.

And she might not remember him.

To save the woman he loves, FBI agent Gideon Thorne goes undercover in the cult that destroyed her. Every task they give him blurs the line between duty and damnation. The deeper he goes, the more he wonders if he's saving Hadley... or becoming one of them.

Hadley tried to leave The Flock. They dragged her back, erased her identity, & remade her as a feral shield-maiden forced to kill fellow captives. To free her, FBI agent Gideon works w/ the cult's sadistic leader, The Shepherd.

Sadly, I didn’t participate in #miserypit yesterday as I’m at full mental capacity at the moment and needed a break from posting online this past weekend. Next pitch event, count me in. I’m there.

Baby’s first sleeve 😍 my artist did a phenomenal job with tying in my old tattoos and turning the design in my head into something beautiful and ethereal. I adore her so much 😍

This black crust pizza has ruined all other pizzas for me. My life will now never be the same.

That’s it. That’s the post.

I was recently talking to someone about violence in books (thrillers, horrors, etc.). I was noting that some people tend to use violence as part of shock value, but for me—I look to add meaning to it, not just for the sake of gore. I'm big on that lol.

Been quiet on this platform due to work—hi, full-time travel content creator… *sigh* the easiest way to say it, I’m a “travel influencer” but I make it more gritty and real and fun. No GRWM or polished looks.

Anyhoo, busy traveling. But I’m alive!

Hadley wanted out of The Flock. They dragged her back, stripped her identity, and turned her into a feral shield-maiden. Gideon will do anything to free her—even work w/ The Shepherd.

Hadley escaped her cult. They stole her back and stripped her identity—remaking her into a feral, masked shield-maiden. Now the FBI agent she loves, Gideon, must work w/ the sadistic leader she feared—or lose her forever.

I reached 14k in my supernatural horror WIP. So I thought I would share the vibes.

💀 Dark rituals
💀 Devotion that unravels
💀 A frontman who’s more than he seems
💀 A stage where no one leaves unmarked
