Welcome to Sammicakes! I’m Sammie, also known by my pen name, Rae S. Vaughn, and I am the sole visionary of this blog. I am the author of the dark fantasy novel Accursed Red, and it is a story that I have been working on for six years since I was twelve. (Ps: The art I use on a lot of my Accursed Red posts are from my favorite video game, Heavenly Sword, which heavily inspired my story. It’s the gif used in this post!) I am working on making this story into a trilogy with hopes of it becoming a show or a set of films.

Besides writing, I am very interested in environmental science and social justice. I have just graduated Spelman College as a member of the dual-degree engineering program, majoring in environmental science and environmental engineering. It’s pretty obvious from my blog that I also love all forms of media, most notably obscure movies, cartoons, and anime. A lot of these shows inspire my poems and essays… and they make my blog look pretty :))

Feel free to support me by reading my essays, excerpts, and poems, as well as purchasing Accursed Red on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Thank you so much for stopping by!
