The atmospheric density and the haunting dark imagery catch the readers attention with the first words. Your gothic queen is a wonderfully terrifying beauty who makes me want to read more. Brilliant work, Daniel!

Maybe because I am unable to write things like this one, I envy people’s ability to make it work. Thanks to the gods there are other ways too.
What a wonderful piece of work is this. Thank you both.
Love it!
Kind regards, Gus-

hello dearest Daniel I fear I will be judged for my delusions I think I will go to hell this is uplifting way to look at things 💕

I believe I’m going to hell too. We can’t decide when, but we can decide how we meet that end. Love this life the fullest and to any good God that should count for something. I’ll stay strong if you stay strong, Brenda.
