[In Progress] [25k] [Psychological Murder Mystery] Nothing but a Speck of Light Left in the Dark

Novella

Some stories don’t stay on the page…

Nick’s words are bleeding into real life, and his mind is fracturing. Nick is a thirty-year-old author haunted by a past he can’t escape and by a strange compulsion he can’t control. The stories he writes start to bleed into reality, echoing crimes that have happened. As the line between his fiction and the world around him begins to blur, Nick struggles to maintain control over his mind, his memories, and the darkness that seems to be closing in.

I’m looking for beta readers for Nothing but a Speck of Light Left in the Dark— a dark, twisted psychological murder mystery.

Chapters 1–5 only. Feedback can be as short or as detailed as you like. Please note this is volunteer beta reading, no compensation at this time. Your insights will help shape the rest of the story.

Comment to read… if you’re ready to step into the shadows. 🖤
