Please read this small rant before you read this book. That would be cool. This book is a first draft. It is going to be filled with errors in the categories of: spelling, punctuation, grammar, past/present tense switching, possible plot holes, second to third person narrative switches, POV switches, and honestly anything else that may not seem like “good” writing. If any of these are going to damage your reading experience, I understand if you do not read this book.  What the hell am I doing, yeah? Why is this in your hands in a paperback or on a device? The past couple years in my writing life has been absolutely brutal and my rejection sensitivity has been set off bad enough that now everytime I sit down to write I think, “wow, what is this going to make people think of me and my work?”  That isn’t what I want for me or anyone else in the writing world. Especially not for me. I write my lil books to help people escape the ugliness of life and the world. I try to present rea...

I hate the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

Two things first: First, I like my book; there’s a situationally relevant dick-dragon in it. I don’t know if anyone other than my stupid ass could make that work - yes that’s a fucking brag and self-confidence.  Second, if you’re here for Darklit bullshit, move along. That horse is so dead that it’s in hell and its bones are being used in a B-52’s cover band.  I don’t know where to start, I’m not using a timer on this BLAHG because all of it needs said, I am however not going back and editing or whatever. I want this to still be my raw thoughts and ranting.  Around three years ago, I think? Who knows? I hadn’t graduated from college yet, so let’s just say 2021… a group of writer types were in a group chat yadda yadda yadda an idea for pirate horror came up, we then found our way into a new group chat, we then had contracts to release pirate books with Darklit (which at that time was a huge opportunity for a lot of us because most of us were just sort of existing). The boo...

SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN is… something? BLAHG about how seven years ago I tried to unalive myself because today is the anny. I used Danzig font because I like making Danzig themed jokes.

 On April 29, 2018 I said, “ight, I’ma head out.” You’re reading, or not reading my BLAHG so I guess that means I couldn’t find the damn door. Classic Damien bullshit, I even fucked up trying to off myself and ended up with a $500 ambulance bill and a massive headache. It’s been seven years. I think I can make awful and distasteful jokes about it now right? Like good thing I wasn’t depressed over being in debt… I’ve made jokes about it, I’ve talked about it, I’ve added elements from what got me there in all of my work, so now what? I dunno.  I feel like at some point I should prolly shut the fuck up about it, but I don’t want to. There’s a serious issue in our world with people NOT talking about feeling the way I felt because they feel ashamed. I will continue to talk about my attempt, and life after, every time it’s relevant. If just one single person sees me talking about this with zero shame, maybe they won’t feel as bad approaching friends? We go to war on these apps for peopl...
