~ Mari Adkins

In the spiral we dance
Toward madness and eternity
From the womb we take our life,
And from the blood, we end it.
~~ Aridan

This is the chapter header for Chapter Fourteen, the last chapter in Midnight.

Appalachian gothic fiction writer - my works reflect a love of literature flavored by the darkness and magic residing in these ancient mountains. In my spare time, I Sim, I TikTok, I journal, but I always have a very strange sense of humor. I have lived away from the mountains and lived deep in the mountains. I currently live in Central Kentucky with my life partner and his cat. The mountains, their culture, their superstitions, their particular magics, will always be in my blood.
