Follow me down the winding dark rabbit hole dare to Take a peek through the looking glass…
- M. Krotz
My stories are heavily influenced in the realm of noir crime novels, gothic fantasy/ dark fantasy, with explorations of historical identity, sex, sexuality, violence, sexual violence, racism, death and at times self harm. If you are not comfortable exploring without a specified content disclaimer please do not read the story. My gaol is to deconstruct important issues that shape us in a fictional world and to entertain you as a reader, not to shock, harm, or trigger anyone.
With that said, please enjoy and I always look forward to getting feedback❣️

Prince Charming is a fantasy noir story that is loosely based on a true crime. To learn more about it, subscribe to my email list above and you will receive a free copy of Prince Charming; to be released October 1, 2023. Or, purchase Prince Charming on Amazon or wherever you may buy your books. Available October 1, 2023.

The playful prisms cast the room in an otherworldly glow.
