Whispers: The United States of Christ on Kindle Vella

Thirteen years ago a radical religious group bribed and blackmailed three Supreme Court Justices to control the outcome of the civil rights case Obergefell v. Hodges. After their success in swaying the opinion of the court, the emboldened fanatics set their sights on the White House.

Seven years after the bloody, Inauguration Eve coup, The United States of America no longer exists as a democracy. In 2028 things like freedom, liberty, and justice for all are just words without meaning, relics of the past.

For months there have been rumors that the madman in the White House has cancer, and will be dead before the new year. But his puppet masters are still alive and well, overseeing and controlling the daily lives of the People.

Welcome to The United States of Christ!

A cautionary tale set in an alternate Dark America

"This story feels timely and personal on so many levels for me, and I won't lie, I cried as I wrote the prologue and first chapter."

-Octavia Ambrose (pen)

Read the first three episodes for FREE and catch up before Episode 9 drops. Stay tuned for a recap of Season One so far, and a preview of what's coming up.

❖ TDOM Aesthetic ❖

➳For my readers, I wanted to share with you the aesthetic of what you'd find in my story. I was tempted to put more together but that would just make the pictures tell the story instead and I did not want that! What aesthetic is your favorite?

Climbing back on the horse

After an extremely rough end to 2022, and starting out 2023 with a bad case of writer's block, I'm climbing back on the horse, so to speak, with a new episode of The Event.

*Read the first three episodes for FREE!*

The Event: Season One of The Portal War

Science Fiction / Action and Adventure with a little romance and fantasy sprinkled in

Strange things are happening in Jericho!

Less than a day after strange things begin to happen to Adam and his twin sister, Eva - similar extraordinary reports start popping up all over the globe.

The small town of Jericho is the tip of the iceberg, and 'The Events' are just the beginning!

Morning, Afternoon, Or Night Writing?

February 1, 2024|Blogging

Do you have a particular time of day you like to write, or tend to be more creative? According to some research, most people tend to be more analytical and logical in the morning, and more creative and intuitive in the evening. However, this may vary depending on your individual preferences and habits. Personally, I write when I am in the mood, inspired, or have an idea. What about you? Would love to hear, and remember, "Enjoy the Write!" KSCarson

This book…wow. ALL MY RAGE by @sabaatahir is sooo good in a very heart-wrenching way. (Which I love; any book that makes me cry is definitely going to be a favorite and boy did this one!) It has three unique narrators and I love the different perspectives. It covers so many themes: love, loss, racism, abuse, bullying, immigration, poverty…I could go on. If you find you can’t get into it, stick with it. It’s worth it. 5⭐️. Perfect for your #classroomlibrary! #goodreads #newreads #bookstagram #teacherswhoread #yalit #yabooks #highschoolteacher #englishteacher #elateacher (at Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CncWhAOuVdk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Read the first three Episodes for FREE!

Episode 16 - “ ? ” - of The Event is live on Kindle Vella!

In Episode 15 - Surprise! Readers will be reunited with a character in Jericho that hasn’t been featured since very early in the story. But will it be a double feature? Read Episode 16 to find out.

And stay tuned for Episode 17 - coming soon!

The Event: Season One of The Portal War

Science Fiction / Action and Adventure series with a little fantasy and romance sprinkled in

There is really only one thing anybody can say for sure, with certainty, ten days after the Original Event in Egypt: No matter what happens from here on out, whether the outcome is good or bad - nothing will ever be the same for the citizens of Jericho or the eight billion people who call Earth their home.

Strange things are happening in the small town of Jericho. When similar extraordinary reports start popping up all over the globe, a brilliant young geneticist is compelled to return to her hometown.

Serialized fiction on Kindle Vella.

Check out thousands of serialized stories, dished out in bite-sized chunks. Each Episode (chapter) is only 600(minimum) to 5,000(max) words, perfect for book lovers who lead busy lives.

Wondering what Kindle Vella is and how it works?

In a nutshell - Kindle Vella is a platform within the Kindle app and on the web (Amazon) to find and read Serialized Stories. Think of it as a digital library of books, novels, or series that are released a chapter at a time as "Episodes," that can be read on your phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop. Each Episode is the equivalent of a short chapter.

Or...And this is how I prefer to think of it, how I explain it to my friends who have never tried it before - I liken the Serialized Stories on Vella to their favorite TV shows, where new episodes are dropped in chunks, or perhaps weekly, and those Episodes make up a season. Vella's Serialized Stories are a similar concept.

AND...you can read the first three Episodes of EVERY story for FREE to see if it's a good fit. Kind of like how you watch a trailer for an upcoming movie or a teaser for the next season of a show, to see if it's something that might interest you before investing your time in it.

So, the first three Episodes of each and EVERY story are always free! After that, you can purchase tokens (from right there on the platform) and redeem them to unlock Episodes and continue reading the stories that interest you.

*New readers are automatically offered a bundle of 200 tokens for free* that you can use up before purchasing more. And there are various token bundles to choose from, starting at only $1.99.

The number of tokens required to unlock an episode varies based on episode length.

For example: A locked Episode that is...

600 words = will require 6 tokens to unlock

700 words = 7 tokens

800 words = 8 tokens

1,200 words = 12 tokens

1,800 words = 18 tokens, etc.

Join me on Kindle Vella and discover a different (and sometimes addicting) way to read. And find your next amazing book or series today!

**Kindle Unlimited Subscribers: Those who have a Kindle Unlimited subscription may see other perks when they start using the Vella platform. As a subscriber, I've noticed that I receive more tokens per bundle, and have been offered additional free token bundles, etc.**

After a long hiatus, a new Episode of my cautionary tale, Whispers: The United States of Christ will be dropping soon on Kindle Vella.

This story in particular has, by far, (emotionally and mentally) been the hardest for me to write. But it is (sadly) a story that is more relevant than ever, and writing it feels necessary.

Read the first three episodes for FREE and catch up before Episode 9 drops. Stay tuned for a recap of Season One so far, and a preview of what's coming up.

Whispers: The United States of Christ

Dystopian / LGBTQ Fiction / Horror / Dark

The haunting story of the trials of a gay couple in 2028. Set in a dark and deeply divided America where love didn't win in 2015, leading to a devastating coup, and the end of democracy.

Welcome to The United States of Christ!

A cautionary tale.

Alternate History / Dystopian

Thirteen years ago a radical religious group bribed and blackmailed three Supreme Court Justices to control the outcome of the civil rights case Obergefell v. Hodges. After their success in swaying the opinion of the court, the emboldened fanatics set their sights on the White House.

Seven years after the bloody, Inauguration Eve coup, The United States of America no longer exists as a democracy. In 2028 things like freedom, liberty, and justice for all are just words without meaning, relics of the past.

For months there have been rumors that the madman in the White House has cancer, and will be dead before the new year. But his puppet masters are still alive and well, overseeing and controlling the daily lives of the People.

We are getting closer and closer to #release day, and my anxiety is at eleven. My stomach is tied in knots. I want people to love these characters as I've grown to love them. While they do have a small #fanbase behind them, I want to show the world that nothing has to stop you from achieving your #dreams or finding love. #newreads I hope you'll join #Seonghun and #Maliah on a journey of self discovery and #love (at Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9VPjGLuF0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
