I’ve always loved dark urban fantasy. I was initially drawn to its intense action, dangerous worlds, and supernatural conflicts. But what fascinated me most were its morally grey characters and psychological depth—the darker sides of people, the choices they make, and what they become when pushed beyond their limits.
That inspired me to begin two projects. Both projects are the first books in the series
The Man Who Smiles: A Western novel with anime DNA. The One Uniting (the series) can be bought on Amazon and other sites or read on RR and Inkspired as web serial.
When Thorns Bloom: A novel where dark romance meets urban fantasy. Familia of Thorns (the series) and its books will only be available on Amazon (KU)
01 · Project 1
Summary
In a modern world where monsters, secret organizations, and forgotten powers thrive in the shadows, the seemingly carefree Drin is pulled into a reality that should not exist. What begins at a crime scene becomes his entry into a hidden war where supernatural abilities are commonplace and survival is never guaranteed.
But Drin is no ordinary bystander. As lost memories and traces of a forgotten past begin to surface, his path draws him toward ancient threats, the mysterious organization JUDGE, and truths that extend far beyond a single investigation.
What starts as a single case soon becomes the beginning of a new life – one that will challenge everything what Drin thought he knew. Yet, Drin himself is only part of something much bigger!
01 · Project 2
Summary
Kairo Blackwell has spent years suppressing his darkness with pills. As the potential heir to Neo City’s weakest clan, losing control could cost him his future––or turn him into the monster his family already fears.
Elara Ironvale was raised to be the perfect heir: disciplined, dangerous, and loyal to the city’s most powerful clan. But beneath her flawless control, a mysterious curse is beginning to bloom.
When they meet at Neo University, their attraction quickly becomes something darker. Instead of fearing Kairo’s brutality, Elara encourages it.
Meanwhile, hidden factions move through the university, a stolen Artifact is creating unnatural ghouls, and an unknown enemy has taken an interest in Elara. All while Kairo remains unaware that the woman he desires belongs to the family he has sworn to destroy.
To keep him, Elara creates the perfect lie.
But when the truth blooms, their love may not unite their families.
It may begin a war.

04 · Introduction
I’m RT Black. Before I ever wrote stories, I was a student who watched his creativity being boxed in. School taught us to follow rules — not the way we felt. With every attempt to fit in, my passion faded. I know what it means to lose your spark. That’s why I write about reigniting creativity — because I had to rebuild my own from the ground up.
05 · About me
In a world full of stories, I found myself no longer excited — reading and watching just to escape boredom. That’s when I realized what I truly missed: the thrill of getting lost in a world, the joy of seeing characters come together, and the heartbreak when they drift apart.
So, I decided to create the story I was searching for — one that makes readers feel everything. My goal is to craft unforgettable worlds that pull you in so deeply, you won’t want to put the book down.
Because to me, words are far more than letters strung together. They can open doors, heal wounds, spark emotions, and even reignite forgotten love. Words carry the power to transport us to another world, to mean nothing and everything at the same time.
That is why I do what I do — because behind every word lies a story worth sharing. And mine begins with these words: “Let me tell you a story.”
06 · My mission
My mission is simple: to write stories that make people feel. To thrill, inspire, and even ignite passion. I want my words to reach readers in a way that stays with them long after the story ends — to move hearts, spark emotions, and awaken imagination. I will not simply write on paper, I will write into your heart!
“Behind every word lies a story worth sharing.” That’s the promise I try to keep with every chapter I write.
