Gates of Okinawa (Supernatural Horror Novel) + Digital Novelist Starter Kit
“In Okinawa, doors to hell open at the last bell”
Military spouse Zena Marlowe must be losing her mind. Her star students skip class, fights break out unexpectedly, and then there's the blood. A lot of it. That river of red thrusts her down a macabre path of madness.
When Zena and a group of students discover disturbing experiments at their school, deadly demons stir around and within them. Soon the gates of hell fling themselves open, unleashing otherworldly creatures from Japanese lore whose aims put Zena, her students, and all of Okinawa in peril.
As she struggles with her own fears and secrets, Zena's adventure takes her from tip to tip of the island in a sweat-inducing sub-tropical nightmare. She risks her career, relationships, life, and her very soul to confront the ghosts at the gates. Foreign and domestic forces pursue her and her allies at every treacherous step.
Deep in the caves, cliffs, forests and seas of 沖縄 night creatures of legend rise from eons of slumber - and they're hungry for the flesh of a new world. Can Zena survive Okinawa's supernatural invasion, or will she lose everything - including her final thread of faith - to the ユーリー that threatens to consume the island?
For fans of "The Ruins" by Scott Smith and "Ring" by Koji Suzuki. If you enjoyed "Uzumaki" by Junji Ito, "Gates of Okinawa" will keep you up all night!
PAY ONCE, OWN THE STORY
While modern day platforms are convenient, they own your book when you buy from them. That's not fair.
I do things differently.
When you buy here, the book is yours.
Download it on any device and enjoy the story.
In addition to the freedom to exercise ownership, I'm also including more in this package.
Here's what's included RIGHT NOW:
- Early Access to Original Manuscript
- Read full chapters as they are released
- Contribute to final version
- "Digital Novelist" - the making of "Gates of Okinawa" (behind-the-scenes content)
- Discover how to write your own novel with all issues of the "Digital Novelist Newsletter: Season 1" - until I complete this project
- Own all files!
Still not sold? Here's what's coming LATER.
- Receive complete e-book (before the release date) ($10 value)

- Japanese translation of "Gates of Okinawa" ($20 value)
- Feast your eyes on the video novel ($30 value)
- Get the physical copy of the book ($35 value)
- Invitation to exclusive project events
- Own all files!
Basically, you get all versions of the novel.
But these aren't just the same story repackaged. I'm working to make each version of "Gates of Okinawa" unique.
While all include the full story, each one will have exclusive bonus content and story insights. Here's what I'm planning for each one:
Physical book - 6 additional short stories set in the world of "Gates of Okinawa" + Secret Ending
Audiobook - "Okinawa 7 gates challenge" + "Jordan's Epilogue"
Video novel - Author interviews about the project (different from the ones included in "Digital Novelist Starter Kit" + "Yumi's Epilogue"
Japanese Translation (Ebook) - "Demon's Ending"
Will you collect them all?
I want you to experience this story without paying for another subscription service or device to read it on. I want you to feel what it's like to own what you pay for again.
Plus, it also helps me by providing direct revenue, so I can keep writing and telling original stories for you to enjoy.
By the way, once you pay now, you own everything FOREVER.
The price will increase as I complete more of this project.
