Hello! I’m back (kind of).
I’ve decided to be brave and start posting about my own original story! It’s still in development, and things are privy to change, but I’ve worked really hard on it.
“Do Not Go Gently” is the title currently, as in reference to the poem Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night
It’s a religious horror/dark comedy that I made to help me hash out my own thoughts and feelings about faith in general.
It follows a cast of four characters as they take on a dangerous cult that is spreading throughout the Midwest of America. I set it specifically in Missouri, and I put in a lot of cultural references to a specific area of eastern Missouri where I grew up (Old Mines, Missouri if you’re interested)
The main gang, if you will, are:
John Wise: a British preacher who murdered his best friend
Naomi “Omie” Lewis: a single mother who killed her boyfriend to protect her son
Mika Brimstone: a member of the Omaha nation on the hunt for revenge
Cain, Daughter of Eve: The Wanderer, The First Murderer, who binds all three of them together through her mark
(I’m sorry these drawings are so half assed, I promise I can draw 🙏)
I’ll be posting about it here if you’re interested. I don’t expect much traffic on this series but that’s okay.
I am going to put a link to the (admittedly) massive playlist I made for this story here:
And here's the link to the (frankly unimpressive) Pinterest board:

(don't pay attention to the weird link title, I have no idea how to get rid of it)
I’m also putting together a Google slides that has most of the story on it that I will share the link to in an upcoming post.
Anywho, I will go a LOT more in depth in the future. I just need a stepping stone to do so. Toodles ❤️
