The Black Hymnal is a collection of Gothic love songs. They are funereal, impressionistic snapshots of a forbidden relationship and all the themes that come with it – passion, deception, heartache, grief and loss. These songs were written over the course of 7 years.

The Emerald Hymnal is a collection of love songs about escaping Purgatory. They deconstruct intense rivalries, long-distance relationships, and passionate one night stands. The events chronologically follow The Black Hymnal.
“You should run from my lust
You know it’s dangerous
It’s heavy as the ocean
And dark below the surface”
The Emerald Hymnal will be out sometime in 2025.
I began writing Godchild, a memoir of my life, after the announcement of Technoblade's death on June 30th, 2022. It is a critical self-analysis of my own "life narrative", with the recurring theme of living under America's "War on Drugs".
I decided to release the penultimate chapter of my memoir, that deals with surviving a police raid, in order to put a face to the issue.
So here is my testimony. Legalize cannabis, and let my people go.
You can read this chapter of my memoir for free by downloading the pdf from itch.io.
