What he wanted was for no one to need him, to require of him nothing.

Greetings Traveler

You’ve found my library.

The candles are always lit. The mirrors are all covered.

And the air smells faintly of parchment, blood, and regret.

🔗 UNSHACKLED - out now on AO3

I go by Soulbinder—writer of dark fiction. Worshipper of morally gray monsters. Binder of trauma, myth, and desire into bleeding prose.

Currently writing:

My debut novel, The Heart of Major Carver — a near-future psychological war thriller about a brilliant surgeon with no empathy, a covert program that weaponizes the unfeeling, and the price paid for changing the world.

Documenting every writing enlightenment I have, craft notes, character epiphanies, plot revelations, and the unhinged sparks that arrive at 3 a.m.

Beta-reading WIPs, reviewing chapters, cheering on fellow writers, and rereading Harris’ Lecter series like I’m studying for an exam in madness.

Obsessions — Thomas Harris, classical literature, Anne Rice, dark poetry, religious guilt, abandoned architecture, and beautiful people making terrible choices.

Stay awhile.

We write to remember what we once were, or to become what we were never allowed to be. —Soulbinder

DMs open for readers, writers, screamers, and ghosts with unfinished business.

As to that, Julius had not encouraged Nicholas to make this latest marriage, although the rest of the Bank had approved. Nicholas unshackled was thought to represent a challenge to normal society.

Love the Unshackled so much. Really glad that Neri and a few others showed up in Durotar later on. Would love to see more of them.

I like to think they would set up one of those underwater "dive bars" we saw in BfA, a nice place to gather and celebrate their new safe haven.
