Welcome to Velvetdemon.Net

This is the blog, messing around space, and mental corkboard of Crow Skyler. Here you can find writing - generally, of a dark nature - and links to her other spaces on the internet. But mostly her writing. This website first got started in March 2007, when it was barely more than a string of code; red text on a black background, with no images. Since then, it's had several remodelings, and the more recent layouts have been arguably more pleasing to the eye. Please enjoy your stay - and keep your appendages inside the browser, we wouldn't want any accidents to happen.

Feel the water around your ankles, your calves, your thighs; remember the cold-damp feeling as it seeps through your pants and then sends goosebumps up your spine. Throw up your head and watch the seagulls circle overhead. They know what you’re doing. They won’t stop you. They know this is a private affair, between you and them, and that the beach will only change temporarily because of it. Smile—

This is the last taste of bliss you’ll ever have.
