Home was the system that broke them. Years later, the people who built it are forced back together—not to fix what went wrong, but to decide who they’re willing to become now. CHAIN-GANG ALL-STARS x SOME DESPERATE GLORY. #A #CT #WIP #MiseryPit

On-screen text reads: “Home. The word struck like a hairline crack in a glass floor—barely visible, but fatal if tested.” Additional text across the collage reads: “Either find a way or make one.” “THE SURGEON OF SILENCE.” “we do terrible things for the people we love.” And near the bottom: “We both knew what we were making. You don’t get to walk away clean. You don’t get to shoot the past just because it came back wrong.” The image is a dark, multi-panel collage showing surveillance data, military dog tags, armed operatives moving through corridors, weapons, and fragments of technology. A central figure is seen from behind in low light. The overall tone is tense and somber, emphasizing moral consequence, loyalty, and the cost of survival within violent systems.

She built a system meant to heal. It kept running after she left—and learned how to hurt. When a blacksite reactivates, a trauma surgeon returns to dismantle it, forcing everyone involved to reckon with what survival cost them. CHAIN-GANG ALL-STARS x SOME DESPERATE GLORY. #A #CT #WIP #MiseryPit

"A Heart in Pieces" is about Jess Harper, a junior at Longview University. One night while Jess is walking home from her audition for the school play, she finds a dead body. Which of the ten-thousand students at Longview is turning members of the student body into corpses? #Miserypit #A #Q #CT #RT

She built a system to stabilize trauma. It rewrote people instead. A surgeon returns to the blacksite she fled, knowing the only way to stop it is to dismantle what she made—and accept what can never be undone. CHAIN-GANG ALL-STARS x SOME DESPERATE GLORY. #A #CT #WIP #MiseryPit #AmEditing

On-screen text reads: “You don’t stop wildfire by naming it a threat. You decide whether you’re willing to be the ground it crosses… or the ones it leaves behind in ash.” Below it, a quoted passage reads: “Ghost-code didn’t stabilize minds. It rewrote them. Thread by thread. Thought by thought. Until what came out the other side wasn’t a person anymore—it was an echo wearing their memories like clothing.” — [REDACTED] The image shows a person in dark clothing seen from behind, partially in shadow, holding a rectangular object in one hand. Their face is not visible. The background is textured with torn paper and faint, unreadable text, resembling redacted documents. The overall tone is somber and ominous, suggesting loss of identity, ethical violation, and psychological erasure.

🩺 THE SURGEON OF SILENCE — #agentsguide 🧠 Institutional control 🩸 A surgeon who built it, now here to end it 🕳️ Decommissioned blacksite 💀 High stakes 🔍 Multi-POV operatives & overseers ⚖️ Obedience vs refusal Adult #SpeculativeThriller. Querying soon (currently editing)

On-screen text reads: “THE SURGEON OF SILENCE agent guide.” This slide exists to set expectations. The visual language is restrained and institutional: clean lines, dark tones, nothing flashy because this story is about how violence often wears a professional face. The mood is controlled, deliberate, and uneasy. Nothing is screaming, and that’s the point. This image introduces a speculative thriller concerned less with spectacle and more with systems: who builds them, who authorizes them, and who gets harmed when they’re allowed to operate without scrutiny. The title isn’t loud. It doesn’t need to be. Silence here isn’t absence, it’s policy.

The Miles Between Us, which features: ✅ a crime story with deep emotional resonance; ✅ an exploration of themes like grief, racism & identity; ✅ ordinary citizens stepping into investigative roles; ✅ MCs who seem worlds apart, and are yet so similar; ✅ a romantic subplot. #miserypit #A #WIP #CT #CM

WIDOW AT THE WINDOW A dark, personal tale of sex, death and betrayal in New York City shortly before the fall of the Towers. Steeped in turn of the 20th Century nightlife below 14th Street. #MiseryPit #A
