Devour is a dark Science Fiction novel about a group of interstellar travelers that get lost in an unknown part of the universe, but find a pocket of human civilization nonetheless. As they investigate this culture and try and find a way back home, they realize that what is a Utopia on the surface is a nightmarish hellscape controlled by forces beyond their wildest dreams.

A little something special

Well, I had an instant idea for something. The Predator Prompt for Spooktober held a certain something for me. Well, how about I just go ahead and drop the first chapter for one of the Novellas I'm working on. SO, I'm pleased to present this teaser into The Great Tree Origins: The EndSong!
  Enjoy as Gjorn has quite... the time of of his life!

  The rest of the Novella will be released at the same time I get done with the Main first book, Soft and Subtle Wind. I need to finish up some artwork and editing, but I think I'll actually be publishing both sooner rather than later. Like, actually publishing, physical copies and all ;P

SPOOKY SEASON IS HERE

Well, I ran through the list for spooktober, and saw one that caught my eye right away. OH BOY, have I decided the vast majority of these are going to be about The Shadows. Now, as of right now, The Shadows have only been talked about in all of about 3 articles. I haven't really gotten around to them, though I have an enormous amount of canon about them, just unpublished.
 
Either way, whether anyone knows it or not, the Shadows are not... pleasant. Nor do I actually want anyone, including my own characters, to learn all that much about them. The only ones that do, are here in the world, but being here is rather a vague term, isn't it? Those that are gone, but not lost. Here, but also not.
  So, why not get started in my usual way. Let us throw it in the deep end.

  Also, I like to point this out every once in a while. Almost all the images in every article I have written/writing, have extra lore or commentary. You just need to click them. ;P   #SPOOKTOBER #SPOOKY #horror #TheGreatTree

  “They were amalgamations of the forbidden - biomechanical flesh crafted and cloned out of pure insanity. Twisted blends of mechanical limbs and grotesque organic matter writhed in torment, their forms contorted in an obscene dance of agony.”
Fell Plumes, Emily Armstrong   “Gulping down a tumbler of Colm's whiskey, Carolee looked to the margarine container sitting in a bowl of ice, glad she paid attention in her Anatomy readings. Apparent after the fact, butchery and surgery ought not have been separate motions, the muscle memory to cleave meat off bone and separate ribs from their connective points wasn't so far off from a pig.”
Whiskey and Sinner’s Blood, Sapha Burnell   “Aichil was not a demon with patience. His host tree, however, had patience in every woody fiber. He had been tempted to abandon it for another human host but its power was potent. It was beyond anything he felt before. It was too intoxicating to abandon. With it, he would build an empire.”
Harvest of Horror, K.S. Bishoff (Dazzlinkat)   “Warning klaxons blared in his ears as the impact ruptured his suit's left leg. Oxygen hissed out in a plume of vapor, mingling with his panicked breaths. His trembling claws fumbled with the emergency repair kit, trying to patch and seal the breach. Each second felt like an eternity as the frigid void of space threatened to claim him.”
Salvager’s Loop, Emily Armstrong   “The night broke with the snuffling, raw bellow of the Lamia's hunting call. No more cooes of feminine lust, nor the deep throated laughter of a woman on the prowl for the slake of her sensuous desires. Once the Lamia realized Caleb would not be turned to her bed, vixen begat venom.”
The Lamia, Sapha Burnell
