Nothing But Words

When his first novel is chosen for a world-renowned writing contest, Author Ethan Garland is ecstatic. After a year and a half engrossed in writing, Ethan's relationships with his girlfriend, Ashley and best friend Marcus, have begun to unravel. A week-long vacation to the small Northern California town of Ustumah City seems like the perfect way to rekindle their relationships.

Surrounded by towering redwoods, what begins as a simple author’s festival starts to feel… Strange.

Scenes from Ethan’s book are eerily mirrored in the shadows, and he begins to search for a reason why. The further down the rabbit hole he travels, the more he jeopardizes his professional and personal relationships. But there is something in the woods… Something in the words.

Ustumah isn’t what it seems.

Nothing But Words is a story about writers and their roles in the stories they tell. It is also about the stories themselves, and what can happen when they take on a life of their own.
