Kindred of the Unseen: The New Temple is my first work. On top of my passion for spirituality and the supernatural, I have a passion for music – for sound and frequency – and at times I have been able to coordinate the two pursuits together!

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I spent my childhood on a farm on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, in what you might call chicken and crab country. We lived near a remote navy air base, and I used to lie down in the middle of our hayfield to watch the aircraft approaching the base, convinced that they had to be coming from the other side of the world and dreaming about all the exotic sights they had seen.

I’m Nicolas Ramis, aka The Emotional Chameleon (yes, I may have honed my writing skills binge-reading Marvel Comics—what can I say, we all have our origins). I like to think I’m my own brand of superhero, and I write the kind of books that slap you awake and make you wonder why you’ve been cruising through life on autopilot for so long.

Well, I used to make up stories for my son at bedtime when he was a little, and one of those stories was “stuck.” I called it “The King Who Lost His Crown.” He would ask for it every night, saying, “Tell me the one about the monkey!” Spoiler alert: the story has a monkey in it. It took me 20 years, but I finally got it published and in print!

Love & Sorcery: My unconventional Autobiography: Naughty Version.
In this tale, I take you deep into a mystical realm where landscapes mirror our own world, fractured and reimagined. Through dark romance and a tapestry of mythical creatures, I share the blueprint of how I survived my ordeals that should have killed me, threading in elements from my developmental studies. This isn’t just my story but a reflection for anyone who’s wrestled with pain or felt helpless in the grip of darkness.
Within its pages, you'll find the delicate balance of pleasure and pain—like a double-edged sword that cuts deep yet reveals hidden truths. Women’s most erotic fantasies intertwine with raw narratives of trauma, offering connection and catharsis for those who need to feel seen and understood.
Within these pages, you’ll find the unspoken truths—the raw, haunting experiences my friends faced as survivors of sexual assault, each story echoing pain from across the globe. This isn’t just a tale of trauma; it’s a collection of voices silenced by fear, betrayal, and a society that shields the guilty while isolating the brave.
For too long, those who suffered were hushed by onlookers, cast aside while their attackers wore masks of virtue. This book is a space to break that silence, to unveil the darkness behind the facade, and to finally give these stories the voice they were denied.
Writing this was a way of relieving the burden of carrying their trauma, allowing the truth to breathe and releasing the weight that has lived within me for so long. If you’ve ever felt unseen or unheard, or if you need to know you’re not alone in the battle for justice and healing, I invite you to witness these stories with me.
Picture an academy with the intrigue of Hogwarts, a land embroiled in war like Lord of the Rings. A love circle similar to Vampire Diaries, and magical creatures with the wisdom of Narnia.
'(^x^My favorite three book series as a kid.^x^)'
& one of the best video series I came across.
This world breathes with rich cultures, unique fashions, and spiritual paths that echo familiar yet distant parts of ourselves. It’s a twist of fate, a dark fantasy that invites readers to explore the beautiful and brutal dance between survival and passion, resilience and release. Curious?
