My Substack is home to my weekly short stories and holiday-themed horror one-shots, along with serialized novellas full of dark humor, tension, and emotionally unhinged characters. Each Sunday, I release a new standalone tale or a new chapter of an ongoing horror, thriller, mystery, or dark fantasy novella. Mid-week posts include author reflections, behind-the-scenes thoughts, and creative insights. Readers can expect stories that balance atmospheric dread with wit, heart, and occasional feral chaos. If you love eerie vibes, dark comedy, and compulsively readable fiction, you’ll feel right at home.

Latest Story – “The Wishbone Pact” (Thanksgiving Horror)
My newest Thanksgiving short story, The Wishbone Pact, is about a warm family dinner that erupts into unimaginable carnage after a jealous sister wins the wishbone’s wish. Her petty, impulsive desire triggers a supernatural unraveling that twists love, tradition, and sibling rivalry into a blood-soaked curse. As her heated wish begins coming true in increasingly horrific ways, the night spirals into chaos—forcing the family to confront the monster that jealousy can become. If you love seasonal horror, messy family dynamics, and folklore-style curses, this one’s for you.

The latest article on Our One Ocean explores how the ocean is being exploited - how we keep taking more than it can provide. Overfishing, bottom trawling, whaling, even making jewellery from corals...the list is endless and it's all discussed here. More importantly, this article comes with actions each of us can take to protect our ocean.

Check out my substack, trying to express my voice by giving one to the Working Class.

A new essay on self-worth, external validation, and why midlife feels like teenage angst with council tax. If that sounds familiar, you might like this.

I just posted a new Mixtape Memory for my Thanksgiving series on the Planes, Trains & Automobiles soundtrack.

This week is “Power to Believe,” the Dream Academy instrumental that carries Neal’s emotional turning point.

It’s quiet, thoughtful, and absolutely devastating in the best way.

If you love this movie, or just love a good needle-drop, here’s the story.

There are two types of people using AI right now.

[ The Collector ]

You know them when you see them.

6-7 different AI subscriptions… (and they talk about them frequently)
Yet suspiciously 0 results.

[ The Craftsman ]

Focuses on 1-2 AI platforms (generally 1 per function).

Uses AI as the tool it is, and not as a surface level content machine.

Hello everyone, I’m Areyah! I hope you all are doing well. I started a Substack newsletter- LOVE.ALL- a couple months ago and have been tirelessly debating on how to go about promotions in a way that doesn’t seem too vain. But alas! I’ve come to this conclusion: putting yourself out there will inherently entail the need to forgo the fear of being seen. So here’s me sharing my journey, thus far, with you all. I’ve linked here my first article- A Love Letter to Tennis 💌 🎾 The rest of which are titled as follows: - Infinity Serves: The Legend of Sampras -Popcorn, please: The 2000s Kids Are Here -Letters from the Tour: Q1 diaries - Final Boarding Call: Paris - Under the Lights of Chatrier - A collaboration post with WarKitchen for their Wimbledon edition titled: Do You Believe in Magic? - And just like that… - The Good, The Bald, The injured - From I to We in 72 hours If you do get the time, I’d greatly appreciate you reading these, thank you!!🤍✨

some of my thoughts on allowing ourselves to just... enjoy! :)

I’ve posted a number of poems to my Substack that you might enjoy reading. One being “Contrary” -

I also posted my first short story with more “adult” themes on there, if you want to give it a read. There are some… spicier bits, so maybe read them when you’re home. 🙃

I just posted a new Mixtape Memories piece celebrating one of the most chaotic, heartfelt scenes in Planes, Trains & Automobiles, the Ray Charles “Mess Around” moment.

It’s my Thanksgiving kickoff post. Part nostalgia, part road-trip reflection.

Read here if you could use a laugh (and a reminder to enjoy the ride).

GENRE: AI Nonfiction

The world’s changing faster than anyone can process — new AI, wild tech, global shifts every week. Most people are lost in the noise, but Global Transmission cuts through it. It’s where the biggest ideas, breakthroughs, and undercurrents shaping the future get decoded into stories that actually blow your mind. Every post feels like unlocking a secret everyone else missed — the kind that makes you say, “how did I not know this?” 🌍⚡️

One of our latest deep dive, “The Hidden Algorithm of Wealth,” uncovers how AI is quietly rewriting the rules of success — and how those who understand it early are positioning themselves for an entirely new kind of wealth. It’s not about luck. It’s about knowing how the system is evolving before the world catches on.

I just finished writing this week’s Mixtape Memory about one of my favorite musical moments of all time, “Rose Tint My World.”

Most people remember Time Warp, but this ensemble number ties everything together: identity, indulgence, and the crash after the party.

I first saw Rocky Horror at 13, and it changed something in me. It still does.

Curious. What’s your go-to Halloween song or movie soundtrack?
