Yesterday was the start of a 90 day writing challenge, I did not get much done because of work but I did write! Sometimes even 100 words is better than no words.

A Reader's Guide to THE DEVOURING
PITCH
Jason and Ayana are happily married in an arrangement that keeps their lives parallel but separate. In the wake of his brother's murder and her discovery of an impossible illness, however, they must work together to learn the truth behind these mysterious events. Along the way, they uncover an occult conspiracy at the heart of their city—and the malevolent god lurking beyond its veil.
Told from the perspectives of the story's villains, The Devouring is an adult cosmic horror and thriller novel about the monsters we choose.
