Bio
I write psychological stories driven by tension, uncertainty, and the things left unexplained. I'm drawn to quiet unease moments where something feels wrong, but you can't say why.

Instructions for Replacement
These instructions are intended for ordinary use. They are not a guide to reinvention, only adjustment. Follow them carefully and in order. Skipping steps may result in confusion, emotional exposure, or relapse. If done correctly, the transition will appear seamless to others. You will continue to function. You will continue to be addressed by the same name. Only the internal mechanisms will change.

Unsaid
Beth hadn’t realised how cold her hands were until the mug stopped hurting. The café was too loud for a weekday morning. Cups struck saucers. Steam hissed. Someone laughed too sharply behind her. Beth wrapped both hands around the worn coffee cup and waited for the warmth to settle, for the ache to ease into something manageable.
