Oh, hey, it's me.

Hi. 

This is me. I'm Hester.

Hey.

Hester is pretty short already, but you can call me Henny, Hettie, Hessy, or Hestie, if you like. 

And this is my blog. I'm an author, maybe you read Seafood? Probably not, and that's ok. Seafood is about mermaids, murder, and terrible teenage decisions. I write horror. I hope to have some more projects published at the end of the year. 

I'll mostly be posting about writing. I'm not terribly active online, and I value my privacy. 

And honestly, I feel overwhelmed about 90% of time, so for my own sanity, I won't post much. Unless I'm feeling excessively clever, or happy, or proud of myself (doesn't happen too often). I'll post here for longer content. 

For shorter content, you can find me here:

Your grandma calls this the Book of Faces. 

The site that scares me, Instagram.

2025 Goals & Oops My Life Imploded

  Instagram Post I posted the above January 06, 2025. Oh boy, I was on a roll. High hopes. Every day, I wrote. Even if it was just a bit. I was committed, locked in. Above all, I was happy .

Someone tossed a flammable can of chemicals on the metaphorical spark of my life. And just like that, stability fell into a raging river, rushed away. I have no free time. Negative time. 8 hours of sleep? Lol. Exercise every day? That's funny. I run errands on my lunch break, or I'm doing some kind of a chore in my office, or it's not going to get done. I go to work, come home to take care of the beings that depend on me, do the bare minimum for cleaning and upkeeping of the homestead, go to bed, repeat. No time for me. And if you know me at all, my mental health needs some dopamine hits from doing something I enjoy se...

Seafood by Hester Hatchette

  Amazon.com | Amazon.ca   Facebook | Instagram | X | BlueSky    I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me meets Into The Drowning Deep , for fans of dark tales of questionable morality and teenage mistakes. Brent’s best friend, Steven, vanishes. Brent hopes his friend is out sailing the world, getting tattoos, and drinking hard lemonade. Then Steven’s boat is recovered, but the man has vanished. Men go missing around the water of seaside towns, and it’s no different for Star Harbour. Pieces of men wash ashore, maybe not. Officially, it’s a random coincidence with no connections from one savage dismemberment to the next. Watch the news, stay off the water when they say to, and the wave of tragedy will devastate the next town. Time moves on. But Brent doesn’t. He spirals and ventures out to the water to meet whoever stole Steven. Instead, he meets a mermaid. She’s gorgeous and compassionate, and he’s hooked. More men go missing from his town, and it doesn’t matter...
