Taxing Paper Ships

Across the multiverse, or rather through it, there is a factor that rarely changes despite the liquid status of every “absolute” intellectual life is recording. Philosophers wager it has to do with a bottom-cap for moral distinction. Humans call this “humanity” but 98 percent of species wouldn't know what a human was if it jumped up and threatened to eat detergent in front of them; so their opinion doesn't really matter, does it? Sociologists hypothesize the constant exists as a base form of institutional organization. Certain groups feel this is the most likely truth, but their agreeable sentiments stem from socio

Walking on Eggshells Pt. 3

“Fate is Betwixt the Lines” Merlin's Tavern wasn't the best up-kept bar in Milling, that was for sure. The weathered sign above the bar's entrance bore down on the three of us as we ventured towards the fantastically mundane building. It was a placard of stars, crescent moons, and ambitious calligraphy originally intended to portray a sense of refined class and mysticism (like it wanted to pretend that there was something more to this place other than rowdiness and a watering-hole fit to sufficiently drown one's troubles) but nowadays customers were left with the rancid taste of lost decadence stifling urbanization all too w

Starving the Wolf

Coming to a conclusion after a silence so profound as the one I have found myself wrapped in all this time is something many would call an "epiphany." They would be completely correct in labeling it such; I hold little dispute in that regard. One could only assume that a man lost in his own thoughts for a period of three years would emerge with such shocking self-reflection it would shake the very nature of his being beyond the core, down to the very fiber of the fabric his entirety is woven from. Surely a man living in a state of meditation for one-thousand-ninety-five days could only escape with secrets truly unknown to the rest of mank

My Bio

Hey there,

I'm Sasha, and I'm a writer. I typically do short stories and one-offs, exploring a wide range of topics and genres. From horror to wholesome romance, I give everything a shot at least once. How else to better improve my writing than to expose myself to a diverse range of perspectives and settings? With that idea in mind, I've set off on an adventure of scribbling down some wild tales.

A lot of the unique experiences I get to write are actually commissions I take. So yeah, I do accept commission requests if you're interested. My journal has all of the details regarding how to reach out to me if you feel I'm a good fit for your project.

When I'm not writing commissions, I'm working on my stories and lore. Most of the original pieces I'm writing have not been posted, so I won't spoil them just yet. Just know there is likely a lot to come, as long as I can keep finding the time.

Whether you're browsing for something to read to kill time, or you're on the hunt for a writer, I hope you find what you need here. Feel free to send me a note if you have any questions.

Until then, I'll see you around!

Commissions

5 min read

Commission Details Prices and Returns: $15 per 1,000 words standard rate, or 1.5¢ per word. I use PayPal. I don’t have any other means of accepting payment. Editing during the drafting stages costs no extra. Should the final draft be agreed upon, but a large edit would like to be made, there will be a $10 fee incurred. Unless the edit is grammatical or syntax-related. That is on me, and I do not charge for those edits after the project is finalized. The outline process does not cost anything. This is the stage where the client and I brainstorm together. These discussions will provide details for what the story will be about, what kind of characters will be in it, what the setting is and so on. The outline will be sent to the client upon completion so it can be assessed and tweaked as necessary. Before writing begins, I do require half of the payment be sent as a held fee. This protects my time and work. There is a diminishing rate for returns if the client would like to cancel

Stress, Career and Commissions

7 min read

Howdy everyone, It's been a hot minute since I've touched DeviantART. I hope you all are doing well and holding up. I know things have been kind of hectic since 2019, but hey what can you do? Just keep on keeping on; that's about it, right? I'm going to give everyone a brief update on where I've been, outstanding projects, plans for the future and what's in store for my page here. If you're looking for a Tl;Dr, it'll be included at the end. So let's get to it. For three years I worked at a local hospital. I'm no nurse or doctor, I was just someone who cleaned and disinfected operating rooms after surgeries were performed. I worked there through the Covid pandemic. It was not a good place to be, though not only because of Covid. The job itself was exhausting from the overtime, lack of staffing, management was drowning, and as things got harder the higher-ups were demanding more and more from us. I'd lost all time to myself, and my drive for writing died. I kept practicing on the

It's been a long time.

3 min read

It really has been quite the span of time. Adult life turned and dumped me off at a crossroads where I took the wrong turn. I made every single bad choice, lost a lot of people in my life, took on massive debt from medical bills, watched my family leave my side, and so my love for writing died with nearly all of my passions I had. Despite all of this, life found a way to mend the bad and there's a light on my horizon now. For all of the people who left me, I have a resilient group who remained through the good and the bad. Thick and thin--as tired as that saying may be--has shown me no matter how difficult the road gets, I will inevitably encounter good souls along the way. The best of them all, of course, is my partner. She's been truly sweet to me, and her company is not without healing. That healing has ignited an old itch I didn't think would return after my mom passed away. I feel the need to write, and so I have been writing. The products have been small and cautious little
