Compendium of the Amethyst Commander

Around her midriff is a disconcerting toothy maw, forever agape with jagged fangs forcing the shape of an unsettling smile. Nearly inaudible agonized cries escape between gaps in the teeth and the pungent smell of decay permeates the surrounding air. Two additional arms, shorter of her four, line directly with the corners of the ghoulish mouth, all of which is normally wrapped around her underneath a white cloth. Provided obscurity, her facade is considerably normal, perhaps even beautiful. Save for an arm that holds itself loosely together and dark, teardrop-shaped indentations along her amethyst skin, blemishes evade her. Less sinister than the smile underneath the cloth is the whimsical grin on her face and an impossible innocence in her turquoise eyes. Not dissimilar are her adornments of satin blouses and skirts of blues and greens and a lavish assortment of ornate jewelry. Her taste in fashion and a mesmerizing strut suggests someone who was raised as royalty, and her mannerisms coupled with fear from her subjects and respect from her peers further reinforces the assumption.

My name is T. E. Woodard

And I welcome you to my small plot of the internet. I’m a horror author with a penchant for scarring the minds of characters and allowing discomfort to linger for both them and my audience. There are fates far worse than death, after all.

All of my e-format works are available for free, typically through PDF downloads or the occasional post on other websites. Enjoyment of literature shouldn’t be gated by economic factors, so read and share to your heart’s content. I do also have paperback/hardback versions available of some things for about as low-cost as I can reasonably make them if that’s your sort of thing.

Social Media

I’ve fallen off of social media for the most part after realizing I spent way too much time on it. That said, if you want to follow me on them, I’d prefer you at least have the correct links on the off chance someone tries to impersonate me.
