Whether Verut is in the final seven or not, I am privileged to be mentioned on your page. All demons presented here are worthy of having their words heard by the world. Good luck to all. 🖤🥀

This is so cool! I only discovered it today when people's submissions started popping up on my feed, so I doubt I have time to write anything (and definitely nothing as good as the ones I've seen!) Such a great idea. I look forward to hearing the audio version!

You are welcome to submit. I am not looking for perfect cadence. I am looking for demons.

Excellent, because that prompt was too good to pass up and I'm already working on it 😂

Is there a deadline for this summoning?

Such an enthralling call to read your words. My first attempt to make an offering of my demon fell quite short in word count. However, it is a demanding bitch and as such leaves me with plenty more to write.

Thanks for the exercise. Very thought provoking.

If you can, you must. You are one of the reasons this idea exists. I would be honored to meet your demon.

My 1st attempt. I had to try because I love attempting new forms of writing & creating.

I’ve never tried writing something like this before, but it sounds both challenging and exciting. Thank you for putting this out there. It’ll be fun to explore the voice of a demon. Looking forward to it! 🖤
