🖋️ Ink Drinker Beliefs
- Truth is stranger than fiction—but fiction knows how to keep a secret.
- Red herrings should be hand-stitched and slightly scented with danger.
- The best characters lie to themselves first.
- A well-placed silence can scream louder than a plot twist.
- Ghosts aren’t always dead.
- A crochet hook can be a clue, a weapon, or a metaphor—sometimes all three.
- The Underverse is real. You just haven’t looked under the right floorboard.
- Writing is a séance. Reading is possession.
- I don’t kill characters. I set them free.
- The pen is mightier than the alibi.
- If you’re not a little haunted, you’re not paying attention.
My Writing Style
I write like a lockpicker: quietly, with precision, and always a little dangerous. My stories don’t just unfold—they coil, tightening with every turn. Rooted in noir elegance and INFJ insight, My writing blends eerie atmosphere with psychological depth. I listen for the secrets characters try not to tell and builds worlds that whisper first… then strike.
Whether ghostwriting a memoir full of buried truths or plotting a thriller threaded with dread, she approaches each story like a crime scene—layered, intentional, and pulsing with motive. My prose is silk wrapped around steel. My favorite red herrings? The ones that smile at you while cutting your exit.
