Marissa is a creative photographer and artist well-versed in a variety of artistic mediums. She specializes in eerie, gothic, witchy, and horror-themed photos, although there are no actual limits to what challenges she’s willing to take on.She regularly designs and builds many of her own props for photo shoots, as well as adding digitally created or hand-drawn elements to her final edited photo art pieces. For her art, her favorite tool is her digital sketchbook app and pen, which allows flexibility and play for headshot and concept art creation, as well as custom abstract cover art.

He is the editor and founder of Death Wish Poetry Magazine, and specializes in extreme content, poetry, science fiction, fanstasy of all types (dark fantasy, high fantasy, urban, etc), erotica, horror, and literary fiction.

Have you poured your heart into your manuscript, but something still doesn’t seem right? If you're looking for a gentle but honest, detail-oriented perspective that preserves your unique voice, Marissa is the editor for you. From early concepts and gentle constructive support to step-by-step full edits on a completed project that got rejections. Don't let structural holes, tangled storylines, or off-kilter pacing stand between you and the book of dreams. With an in-depth background in folklore and mythology research, she specializes in fantasy fiction, as well as horror, and both traditional and queer romance with spice.
