My name is Zephyr, and I'm a neurodivergent Christian writer who loves morally complex characters, anti-heroes, and eerie gothic settings. I draw my inspiration from Lovecraft, Poe, Conan Doyle, and Tolkien--infusing existing canons with gothic imagery and complex character themes. I don't write self-inserts or wish fulfillment; I ask myself very specific questions and end up building a canon-adjacent story infused with living history, diverse characters, and slow-burn worldbuilding. I NEVER use AI or GPT aside to help me with my research. My stories probably aren't for everyone--and that's OK! I'm just here to show up and show out; put my work out there because I want to share what I love with you guys. Every one of my works is dedicated to God my Father, and his Son Jesus Christ. When I'm not writing, I'm reading, drinking too much espresso (ADHD girls!), watching sitcoms, baking, and dancing.
