Writing has always been my way of honoring the unheard, the unseen, and the misunderstood. While Delusional Madness was born from a deep desire to shed light on forgotten voices of the past, my passion doesn’t end there.
Here’s a glimpse at the stories currently taking shape behind the scenes:
📘 The Island: A Father’s Unforgiving Life Sentence
The Island
Upcoming Novel
Dirk believed that exile would be a punishment he could endure.
Condemned to a remote island reserved for the unforgivable, he brings his two young daughters with him—not out of defiance, but desperation. Prison, at least, would allow him to protect them. The island offers no such certainty. It has no walls, no guards in sight, and no rules that are ever fully spoken.
At first, survival is simple: keep moving, stay quiet, don’t draw attention. But the island is not empty. It listens. It observes. And it learns.
As the days stretch on, Dirk begins to understand that silence is not safety—it is permission. The island does not need to punish disobedience immediately. Instead, it rewards restraint, teaching its inhabitants how to behave long before it decides what they deserve. Each small concession buys time. Each withheld truth costs something unseen.
Willow, old enough to notice patterns, begins to learn which questions can be asked—and which ones cannot. Sasha, too young to understand the stakes, breaks the silence without meaning to, revealing how fragile compliance truly is. And Dirk, caught between protecting his children and teaching them how to survive, realizes that the island’s greatest threat is not what it does—but what it asks them to become.
The Island is a tense, haunting exploration of guilt, control, and the quiet ways systems shape those trapped inside them. It is a story about parental love under impossible conditions, about innocence colliding with consequence, and about the cost of safety when survival demands silence.
Some truths can be hidden.
Some rules can be learned.
And some places are not meant to be escaped—only endured.
