Check out Rebecca in Such Sweet Sorrow, who's fending off migraines and malevolent specters. And her aunt, who is arguably worse.
At least her headaches don't include social media bans. (The #BookBazaar26 account is STILL suspended for being too powerful at promo.)

Hello!
Shall I reintroduce myself? I’ve been around for a while but also absent for months. 😅
I’m Vanessa, a spec fiction writer. I’m currently working on a dark folkloric fantasy. And a dark pirate fantasy that needs extensive revisions and will come after the other project.

*taps mic* Hello?
Am I in the right place? I do seem to have stumbled upon some old stomping grounds! It's been a while.
I can totally explain.

I’ve been MIA.
Appointments, writing, health stuff. And now starting grad school.
But I finally started meds after numerous tests etc. And I daresay I’m starting to feel slightly better? It’s kinda a process of elimination.
I’ve got more appointments lined up but.. is that hope? Reprieve? Maybe?

I’m late to the party, as usual. And not even fashionably so. But let’s go!

If you want to read a strange creative nonfiction, please, help yourself to my post.
It’s not a story. Nor is it a poem. It’s more like a lyrical essay. A lyrical.. list? I don’t know. Maybe somebody wiser knows.
Enjoy! Or block me. Both will be understandable.

I'm doing some read-alongs over on Substack for the first part of the year, if anyone is interested in any of them!
Specifically, I'll be noting observations on "identity" within each work.

I’ve felt horrid.
Stress seems to make everything worse tenfold, so I’ve been mostly avoiding the internet like the plague.
But I’m so thankful for books. I dunno what I’d do without them.

I’ve a book coming out this month! It’s a fantasy novella about a bridegroom who brings an unwelcome guest to his wedding. It’s full of snow and massive animals. Perfect for this time of year.
It’ll be available as a pocket sized paperback too, complete with my illustrations.

Oh, I’ve been MIA. But for those who have followed my whining about my health…
I did finally see endocrinology. Next week, I have my thyroid checked again since hashimotos is a bitch. But also checking for potential Addison’s.
I’m supposed to get a salivary gland biopsy to also check for ⬇️

Watching Godzilla 2014 for 846th time.
There is not a Godzilla movie that I don’t love. Even the 1998 one.
Might watch Godzilla Minus One after. Now that one- phew. What a great movie.

#Writer Sorry to use the tag outside of its intended purpose, but I wanted to wish a very lucky #NewYear to the hosts and participants of #HorrorWritersChat and my fellow creators of The #ShadowBoxArchives. I know 2025 was a lot, to say the least, but hopefully 2026 makes up for it and then some.

It seems there is always something to do. But, before I run myself ragged, I shall watch Frankenstein (Netflix) tonight.
Tomorrow, I'm reading Dickens's A Christmas Carol for the very first time. Which is insane considering I've seen 75 million adaptations and read much of his other work!
