Happy Pride Month!
I love being able to see my characters come to life ❤️ It's amazing seeing different artists renditions of them. Mingway did an amazing job on Taylor and Nina!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday! 🎄
Happy National Cat Day! 😻
Extremely excited to announce that Zack and Mary will be attending New York Comic Con as exhibitors!!!! We'll be there with novels, as well as prints & art 📚🖌️ We'd love to see you guys come out to chat and hangout ❤️
Super happy to announce that I have a new book coming out in the VERY near future. It's an anthology of short horror/thriller stories that came from my dreams/nightmares 💀 we're just waiting to get the proof before it goes live!
Once it's published, I'll post links for purchase ❤️
San Diego Comic Con has been an amazing experience. We've met so many amazing artists and writers that have given us invaluable information and advice (and very cool art/prints 🖌️). Some exciting things may be coming over the horizon - more on that as things come together 😁
Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇲
Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦
Summer has officially begun! ☀️ Whether you're laying on a beach, curled up under a tree or or sitting on a patio, there isn't much better than accompanying those things with a good book. Volume I is available anywhere you buy books 📖
“Hold on, are you into girls?” He asked after her, scratching his head. The topic had surprisingly never come up.
“I’m into beauty Jay - doesn’t matter where it comes from,” she responded over her shoulder and blew a kiss to him as she entered the train.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈❤️
Happy International Women's Day! ♀️
Today is Zack's 29th! Go and wish him a happy birthday, talk to him about your favourite moments or characters, or let him know you picked up a copy of our book 📚❤
Nina, generated by AI using commissioned character art and reference photos 👀
•
Again, I understand it's a hot button topic; this is just for fun, is not art, and all art that was put into the AI was paid for.
Taylor, created by AI using a mixture of reference photos and commissioned artist drawings 👀
•
Also, I understand it's a hot topic right now. I don't consider this art, more like a fun mash up. I used paid commissioned pieces to feed into the machine, and respect artists. This is simply for fun.
Nina wanted to be more than where she came from. When given the chance, she jumped into action, disregarding the consequences or those hurt. Time will tell if she can elevate herself, or plunge deeper into darkness.
Evan started a new school after he and his father moved states. Being bullied at his previous school for being short, as well as short tempered, Evan hoped things would be different. He was right, but not in the way he thought.
Heading into the final year of high school, Taylor Campbell knew where she was going for university, and that she was already prom queen. However, with so many expectations also comes insecurity and doubt
Jeff masks his fears, trauma and insecurity with faux-arrogance and sarcasm making him difficult to get close to, but once you're in, he would literally die for you.
Some of our characters were physically/facially loosely based on internet personalities, celebrities and other more known people. Today, we're reaching out to some to see if there is any interest in reading the book! Fingers crossed 🤞
A reader sent me this 😊 very cool to see the book out in the wild, both literally and metaphorically 😂
Happy 4th of July! ❤🇺🇸
We strongly support the notion that every woman should have the right to govern their own bodies. The news of late is saddening and scary, and although we are just a small novel series, understand that we see you and stand with you ❤
Happy Canada Day to all my Canadians out there!!! ❤🇨🇦
Representation is important ❤🧡💙
Happy Pride Month 🏳️🌈
The book is available at the link below! Thank you for all your support, and I hope you have a good time with it :)

Tomorrow.
The time is almost upon us. Can our 'heroes' step up to the plate and stop forces of evil they barely understand, or will they be swept away? Find out on APRIL 25th, the official release date for The Veil - Volume I: Spirit! 😈
Thank you to everyone who supported so far, and I cant wait until you can get your hands on it ❤
Coming soon! 👀 stay tuned for official release date! You'll be able to purchase wherever you buy your books ❤
Copyright is in! Working on pricing, then, I'll be able to give everyone a release date ✔
Apologies for the radio silence. My partner/artist and I have been working on bringing families out the warzone in Ukraine to Canada and it's been taking a lot of our time 💙💛 Rest assured the book is still moving. As I've said, the book itself is done and what's being done is legal, copyright and ISPN registration 📖
This first photo is the first page of a draft manuscript I wrote in 2014. It was meant to be the sequel to the first novel in the series, however I ended up going a different direction. Regardless, when I wrote it, it was written from a standpoint that this would never happen as I described it... I guess truth is stranger than fiction. The second photo is of me and my partner inside the Boryspil airport in 2019. The third photo is the same place I referenced in the draft, and photographed in 2019, but this week. My heart bleeds for Ukraine and it's people, and I am taking steps to help as much as I can in the wake of this crisis. ❤🇺🇦
Character creation in games means tons of different renditions of our beloved characters ❤ here is Nina Rose, Taylor Campbell and Brianna North if they lived in Night City from Cyberpunk 🤖
👀
More reviews from Alpha/Beta readers!
A much deserved thank you to those who have supported me on my writing journey

I ran a bunch of the character art through Prequel to 'Cartoon' them 😂 it made some look cool, but mostly just super cute 😻
Today is our author, Zack Nethery's, birthday 🎉🎂🍻
Research has never been so fun and spooky 💀🐙
The cover is completed! Here is a look at it :)
Created & designed by Mary Mokrushyna
Someone recently said the way Taylor looks reminded them of this character named Rachael; I guess I can see it 😜 also, if you know what game this character is from.. I see you 👀😂
Know your enemy
We're in the home stretch! Currently fixing up some loose ends in terms of text and exterior design. Once it's done, we'll show you all the cover 📖 until then, let's game a look at what some of the alpha and beta readers have said about the book(s) 🤗
Merry Christmas all! 🎄 Can't wait until 2022 when the book finally drops 🤗 the best gift is all of your support ❤
The first five chapters have been sent to those who donated! Happy reading 😁 if you havent donated, but still want in on the fun, its not too late! Hope over to one or our Crowdfunding pages and get your name on the list 📖
On the 15th thing month, rather than a Q&A, I'll be giving the first few chapters to supporters for beta reading 👀 if youd like to join the beta readers, head over to any of the crowdfunding sites and donate $50 or more 🤗
Charl, from Just Tattoo of Us, the inspiration for Brianna's character (to be introduced in Volume II), is awesome! Go follow her on Instagram!
As we entered December, it is time for the fourth art drop! This will be the final art piece to be featured in the book (as always, done by Mary Mokrushyna). Next month we will showcase the cover art.

Nina is a demon; one of trickery and deceit. She survived in the depths of Hell by using her cunning mind and deceptive nature. During the spring of 2012, she was given abilities she didn't previously have. Months later, Nina was sought out by a demon lord who told her of a way to escape Hell and live amongst the humans. Jumping at the idea, she proceeded to possess the body of a teenage cultist. Her demon comrades also jumped into cultist bodies to put their plan into motion. Despite being happy with her newfound freedom, it becomes clear that her intentions and those of her associates may not be in line with each other.
We've repurposed an old YouTube channel to be focused on the series! Go subscribe for more updates as well as check the link in our bio for ways to donate for some cool rewards :)
The very talent Mary won first prize at an art exhibition this week! Even cooler, the piece that won was a quadriptych comprised of the art pieces that are featured in our book! 📖❤🎨
