There is the term Té, which means power and great in the small. Or that even the slightest thing, whether it be a person and their attributes or a brief moment of time in nature during one of its splendid cycles is big. It’s powerful. It’s a profound moment or a profound action that hits home, and you may not have even seen it coming! It’s random acts of kindness and beauty, the help you may get from someone when you drop something and they pick it up for you. It’s stumbling on a scene that’s so unexpected and moving that you spend several minutes marveling at how lucky you are to witness it. It’s Té. Read my Substack article for more of what I’m talking about and see if you don’t start to see those moments too! https://open.substack.com/pub/scarletdarkwood/p/gratitude-in-the-small-things?r=6c13y&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Surya Is Published!
I can’t believe I published a Sci-Fi-Fantasy book! That is not my genre. That is not my genre. That is not my genre. So why would I have gone and done it? In junior high and high school, I used to read Sci-Fi. Star Trek was the starter for me. I had two hard-bound versions…

Words We Never Speak Is Published!
This is the release of my supernatural romantic suspense novel. I say supernatural because it’s not your vampire/werewolf read. It’s a ghost story with a twist, but it mostly reads like a romance. You like the occult? There are some elements of that going on in this book, with a tidbit of horror, the creepy kind that…
The Sexy, Powerful Mistress Lover
For all you guys out there, do you like sirens and sexy, hot-blooded lusty vixens in bed, one who takes control of activities in the bedroom and leaves you panting for more?

Crystal Chandeliers And Marble Halls
When I first saw this photograph by Christopher Payne, I was smitten like a starry-eyed schoolboy catching a glimpse of a pretty girl. This lobby of Yankton State Hospital was once pristine and beyond beautiful, I imagine. It’s so hard to believe that the old asylums for the mentally ill are dilapidated and condemned buildings now. Oh, it’s true that…

The Occult And Writing
Looking back on my personal history, I became interested with occult themes in my mid-twenties. Between graduate classes and work, I’d find myself heading off to the new age shop whenever I got a spare moment. Unfortunately, that old shop is now gone. I loved walking up the steps to the old house where I’d…
Getty Images Has Nothing On Me!
If you’re a character in a novel, I’d be willing to bet my last Godiva chocolate and a hot, steamy kiss that Getty Images, Big Stock Photo, and iStock will not even begin to have a picture that replicates the vision of you in your author’s head. I know this is true because I had a hard time finding photos,…
