Someone is destroying our heroes.

Friends and fans of the Dead Predators gather at St. Olga’s to mourn the passing of Sharron Lucas, the child prodigy turned punk metal goddess. Fifteen years have passed since Sharron walked away from the band, and into the arms of Burt Wilson, a middling country singer who packaged and sold her overnight transformation into a god-fearing midwestern trad-wife cliche.

While her tragic and untimely death raises more questions than answers, there’s one question on everyone’s mind:

Did Sharron Lucas really kill herself?

Steven Harkness is a father, a writer, a veteran, and an honors graduate with a bachelor's in history and a master's in the Arts. He lives in Louisiana with his teenage son and two dogs. Steven is a painter by trade, and owns his own business. He spends his days rescuing and restoring old homes in his community, and spends his nights streaming, longboarding, and playing the bass. Steven was homeless several times as a child, as well as a ward of the state, and lived in three different crack houses before he was old enough to vote. He has read and written voraciously since adolescence, but has carefully avoided the publishing racket until now, due to the ubiquitous decline of literature in American culture. His mission is to replace mythological concepts of rapture and judgment with the Principles of Rational Eschatology in the collective consciousness. This philosophy centers around the belief that the human species must contend with the inevitability of extinction, and that the prospect of avoiding such a fate may unify the human race behind a common cause which theological worldviews have traditionally failed to acknowledge. He is prejudiced against robots, hippies, tweakers, and libertarians, and will likely die anonymous and poor.
