I feel so beautiful in your eyes
the way they hold me so softly, adoration etched in the soft curve of your smile
our bodies gravitate towards each other: hands, legs, arms, feet, I don't care I just want to be close to you
when you hold me, I feel as though I am standing on solid ground for the first time
your embrace like the only oasis I have ever known, as if life is a desert and everyone else was just a mirage
I grew so used to swallowing sand that I forgot how water tasted but you have brought me to the river and let me quench my thirst
and by that I mean you encourage me to finish a story when I stop out of fear it is boring you, and you listen to every word
even in the interruptions I know you still want to hear how it ends
I am so used to fawning in conversation, never able to get a word in edge-wise anyway, but you carve out space for me to speak
you praise me as intelligent and talented and beautiful even when I do not see myself as such, and you proclaim it to the world , shutting down my imposter syndrome every time it comes out to play, making sure I know that you see my worth
I can only hope my love is enough in return, for it is all yours, if you will have it

Welcome to my little dark corner of the interverse, a place where shadows dance with secrets and words whisper forbidden tales. I am Dyshanka, also known as Odette, your guide through this enigmatic realm. I am a wordsmith, weaving the threads of darkness into poetry that resonates with the deepest chambers of the soul. A witch of the night and the moon, I find solace in the embrace of the stars, and I dwell in the hidden crevices of existence, where the beauty of darkness reveals itself.
In the depths of this clandestine sanctuary, I invite you to explore the uncharted territories of emotion, where melancholy and mystery intertwine. Here, you'll find the unspoken dreams that come to life beneath the shroud of night, the eerie incantations that beckon the ethereal, and the intoxicating allure of the macabre. In the alchemy of my words, I conjure the essence of what many fear and few dare to embrace.
As you navigate this dimly lit labyrinth, you'll discover that it's not only the destination but the journey itself that holds the allure. Each verse I pen is a portal to a world of hidden desires and enigmatic fantasies, where the boundaries between reality and dreams blur into a seductive, enigmatic haze. Here, the night sky becomes a canvas for my darkest musings, and the moon whispers secrets that only the initiated may decipher.
In my little dark corner, you'll find the uncanny beauty that thrives in the shadows, where the poetry of darkness is etched into the very fabric of existence. It's a place where those who seek solace in the embrace of the night come to find communion with the eerie and the extraordinary. So, wander, explore, and immerse yourself in the words that hold the key to the enigmatic heart of Dyshanka, the mistress of this dark and beautiful interverse. © Dʏsʜᴀɴᴋᴀ/Oᴅᴇᴛᴛᴇ ₂₀₂₃

Get to know the character: Ethan
Ethan smiled at him. Warm, soothing, just like a big brother putting a band-aid on his little brother’s scraped knee. “There was that girl in middle school who asked us what we’d do if we were boys for a day.” He said, put his hands in his pockets. “Some said they’d pee standing, others that they’d stay shirtless the whole day.” “And you?” “I said I’d feel like myself. I never thought about it again until a couple of years ago. It hit me in the face like a truck!” He said, smiling at him. “I experimented in high school, cut my hair short, used ace bandages to bind which is the worst thing to do, and wore my big brother’s clothes.” “Did it help?” “Yes and no. Because people still saw me as a girl, even called me a lesbian when I’m not a girl.” He laughed. “But when I started university, I met people like me. They gave me better advice, helped me with how I wanted to express myself. They were the ones who gifted me my first binder.” They reached the supermarket and remained silent until they left it again. “Something tells me that you asking me this isn’t just simple curiosity. Right?”
For context, the scene is between Ethan and Milo

Writeblr intro 💙⭐️💜
Tumblr media
Flies into open window through helicopter wire and front rolls across room.
Wait, wrong window.
Repeats everything but into the correct window where you’re standing and magnificently introduces myself for the first time.
Hey~🕺🪩
A bit of backstory for this account. (Feel free to skip this and go straight into the intro below):
I made this blog ages ago to try and connect more with self shippers, but I ended up not doing anything with it because I became inactive in the self ship community (at least until now. I might make a separate blog for that later, but right now I’m focusing on some more important things in my life).
So I tried reforming this place into a “I’ll put whatever I want here” sorta thing, but once again became inactive. And now that Instagram (my main platform) has basically been rendered useless because of the tags not working anymore, I need to find a new “main” to talk about my writing and shit. So I’m trying for a third and hopefully final time to reform this blog, and turning it into a writing/oc blog. :b
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
About me:
✨✨✨
Tumblr media
🛸 My name is Rosalind B. Sterling, but you can call me Ross or Ros.
🛸 My age is—slowly looks up at the number twenty looming over me. Dear god. It’s coming.
🛸 I’m a college student. Or at least I’m supposed to be. If my school would just make the transfer process a bit easier, I’ll hopefully be able to make it this semester.
🛸 I’m a demibiromantic asexual, and genderfluid. My pronouns are she/he/they 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
🛸 I’m Puerto Rican, German, and Scottish.
🛸 I’m also neurodivergent.
I mention all this because I want everyone to know that this is this is a safe space for LGBTQ+, POC, disabled people etc, and I love using my experiences as a person from these groups to write diverse casts of characters into my books.
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
About my writing/what to expect from this blog:
✨✨✨
💜 I'm an author/writer, editor (mostly developmental), artist (mostly cartoonist), and reader who posts illustrations, writing content, book reviews, discussions, thirst traps of sexy characters 💅, and more. See? You get an enjoyable variety of content here ✨
💜 I primarily write adult oriented stories in the genres: crime, comedy, and sci-fi, while mixing in vintage/nostalgic elements from different time eras ranging from the 1920’s to the 2000’s. I also love playing Cupid and slipping in different romantic subplots with varying levels of spice.
💜 You’ll probably see a lot of morally gray characters, cartoon-style humor, a chaotic/meta writing style with 4th wall breaks, and lots of parody/spoofing in my stories.
💜 I’m a planster, and often don’t know what the hell I’m doing when I write. I just shit something out and shape it into something readable with the help of my many betas and editors who still somehow put up with me to this day (I love you guys).
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
What do I read?
✨✨✨
I like to read what I like write, except not everything I like to write is available in the book world. So at this point, I’ll read anything as long as it holds my attention for more than a few chapters.
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
Can I read anything of yours right now?
✨✨✨
⭐️ Yep!
My debut novel: "Villain vs. Villain and the Revitalization of the Transtemporal Case" is the first book in my illustrated, crime/comedy/sci-fi trilogy. It's currently on Amazon in ebook format, and on Goodreads. But I’m also in the works of getting the paperback out this month as well as the animated-ish book trailer.
Tumblr media
It’s a story about a time travel scandal taking place in 2005. Jonathan, a black market salesman, is on a journey to clear his name and stop his brother from messing with the timeline. Along the way, he teams up with an undercover agent and go on wacky adventures together as they attempt to reach their goals and hopefully put a stop to their dimension’s demise.
⭐️ I also have a few random short stories on my website blog which can be found here, however, I’m highly considering re-working them as they are all unedited, probably full of errors, and I also wrote these anywhere from months to years ago, so I don’t think they properly represent my current writing all that well.
⭐️ Honorable mention to my Webtoon which you can find here. I haven’t posted anything yet, but have plans to do mini comics with the characters of my Villain vs. Villain trilogy as a way to explore ideas and backstories I couldn’t explore in the books themselves.
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
Do you have any WIP's?
✨✨✨
Distant screaming.
Too many my friend...too many. But my main WIP right now is book 2 of my Villain vs. Villain trilogy. I also have a 1920's crime/comedy/sapphic romance short story thingamajig I've got in development that I hope to publish next year. I simply don't have the time, money, or energy to publish book 2 next year as I originally planned, so hopefully this short story will fill in that publishing gap until I get my trilogy figured out.
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
Some random facts about me:
✨✨✨
💙 I love anything Y2K, scene, noir, neon, synthwave, cyberpunk, etc. You name the aesthetic, I probably like it. (I have waaaay too many eclectic interests and styles so I’ll probably look different in every photo, and I’m putting my bets on it that this account won’t have a concise theme either).
💙 I have a shih tzu/writing partner named Dakota who will sometimes appear on my account. (He loves contributing to my drafts by jumping onto my lap and slamming his paws and ass on my keyboard). Also ignore the half destroyed chair he’s sitting on. He’s responsible for said destruction and is proud of it.
Tumblr media
💙 I currently live in Ohio, and yes, I can confirm first hand that it’s an entrance to the backrooms. The screams from outside keep getting louder too…
💙 Horror is my comfort/self indulgent genre. I would say the same about erotica but I really can’t seem to get into most books I find in that genre for some reason. So I mostly read shitty X reader fics online involving the characters I crush on (who totally aren’t cartoon men in their middle ages).
💙 Music is one of my biggest inspirations for writing. My favorite genres are 2000’s-2010’s pop music, and electro swing. My favorite artists are: Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Pitbull, Wolfgang Lohr, Swing’it, and more.
💙 I talk…a lot…as you can tell by the length of this blog 🌝
Tumblr media
✨✨✨
Welp, that’s all I got for now. I’m still working on reforming this blog, as I said earlier, so there might be a mess of random posts here here as well as an unfinished theme until I figure how the actual hell to use this platform. I sorta wanna post both orginal and fan content like I was doing before, but whenever I dedicate an account to my writing, I feel odd posting anything that’s not OC related. We’ll see what happens.
In the mean time, check my link tree for my other socials, website, and my editing services. If you follow this blog, I’ll most likely follow back because I need friends lmao. No matter your age, the genre you write, where you love etc, come say hi. I really don’t have restrictions on what kind of audience I want since I love everyone and wanna connect with as many writers/artists as I can. Hit up my DM’s too if you wanna chat. I’m always open to have a nice convo.
And with all that being said, welcome to my blog raaahhhh 🦅
Jumps out of window and dies.

I have published my first short story and it is available on Kindle for $0.99 USD (or free for Kindle Unlimited). I am officially a published writer! Expect more coming out from me in the coming months.
A little about the short story: The world is different now after a disease has ravaged the organs of the people of the world. One man found the key to curing the masses, but it was only saved for the rich. Organs are saved from failure by purchasing and replacing them, which led to the purchasing of new eyes to be prettier, new noses, new feet, anything that could be removed from the poor became the new toys for the rich as they created their perfect bodies. All of the decadence is centered around the headquarters of the company, Alterazione Genetica, which towers over the landscape of shacks that surround it. The poor live in the shadow of the building, but a storm is brewing and it will paint the world red.
This whirlwind short story will take readers through the levels of Hell as imagined by Dante and reimagined as a journey through cyberpunk and medicalpunk landscapes.
Thank you for your support!

This is a friendly reminder to never, ever publish your book with a publishing company that charges you to publish with them. That is a vanity press, which makes money by preying on authors. They charge you for editing, formatting, cover art, and more. With most of these companies, you will never seen a cent of any royalties made from sale of your book. A legitimate publishing company only makes money when you make money, they will never charge you to publish with them. If a company approaches you and says "Hey, we'll publish your book, just pay us X amount of money," tell them to go fuck themself and block them.

An Ode to the City Bus
before i could walk, you carried me
you rocked me through traffic like a cradle, your arms have always felt safe
I have been on many a subway, streetcar, skytrain,
but none can compare to you
you hold me tightly, as if I am a doll in your dollhouse, until I reach my little doll destination, and go about my little doll life
and when I am through with all my little doll errands, I slide back into your familiar seats and allow you to cart me home, watching familiar scenes roll by as if this is a movie I know by heart
headlights flicker past like fireflies through your screens and i count them one by one
when we arrive at my stop, I call my thanks to the driver and navigate the small streets of my neighborhood home, knowing you will be there again every 30 minutes or so between the hours of 6:30a.m. and 10p.m.if I need you
just as you have always been

Me providing my “penpal” with a “brief introduction” to a story I’m writing (over two pages on google docs and I was being as vague as I could without being confusing, and I really needed to write more for it to make sense clearly and not sound boring)
The autism…. the fucking autism….

Get to know the character: Maeva
Maeva put music on her phone, gave one earbud to Milo, and turned the sound up until it covered their voices. Neither of them could bear listening to more of their heated conversation. It hurt, more than what they showed. To the three of them, Akela had always been someone dear, supportive of the girls’ relationship when Avera couldn’t get that support from her own parents. Someone with whom it was easy to talk, someone who had always been ready to help no matter the circumstances, without asking questions. Someone they could laugh with until they’d cry. The Akela who was in the kitchen right now, was a stranger.
