Driven by love. Haunted by shame. Consumed by desire. Indulge in something you can sink your teeth into.
An unexpected text from her ex-girlfriend shatters the fragile peace of Elise's delicate life. Standing at the crossroads of her future, Elise succumbs to the dark desires of her heart, stumbling through the fog of uncertainty toward a past she had long since forsaken.
What will she find in the bittersweet nostalgia of a town she hasn't seen for a decade? How will she survive the impossible decisions that await her?
Decadence is a raw and devastating exploration of love in its many forms: the burning wrath of eros, the gentle kiss of agape, and everything in between. It explores the multifaceted beauty and pain of human connection.
Step into a story that dares you to sit with the haunting bliss and existential discomfort of what it means to be human.
- Character-driven: Decadence is fully driven by the agency of its characters, written in a way to minimize the author's influence on the story, resulting in a uniquely human and emotionally resonate narrative.
- Queer, but not queer-focused: The characters of Decadence span a wide spectrum of sexuality and gender, but it's rarely a focus of the narrative. Written in a world where homophobia, transphobia, and misogyny are non-factors, characters are allowed to simply be their authentic selves--defined solely by their personality and agency, rather than their otherness. Decadence accepts its characters as they are, focusing on who they are rather than what they are.
- The moments inbetween: Rather than focusing on grand gestures and indulgent spectacles, Decadence instead asks you to sit in the quiet discomfort of the moments inbetween: of introspection, of small feelings, of intrusive thoughts, and of the melancholy of human experience.
