About

Rayne Corvus Miller (formerly M.R. Badillo) is the author of Bone Dust, a book of dark poetry steeped in Norse myth and polytheistic roots — equal parts elegy and eldritch.

A member of the Horror Writers Association, other titles understandably include The Dead Ones, The Hunted, Lost Soul, Father of the Dead, and Nocturnal & Nameless. Think haunted minds, cursed places, and the slow creep of atmospheric dread — Miller's specialty is less jump scare, more spiritual unmooring.

When they’re not writing paper-bound nightmares, Miller is usually buried in their bullet journal or studying for their nondenominational Masters of Divinity. They thrive on misty hikes, game nights, and time with their local Pagan community. A practicing Heathen, Miller serves on the spiritual committee for Hallowed Homecoming, co-leads The Witches Table, and offers Pagan programming for the University of Richmond Chaplaincy.

Miller is currently at work on a horror novella set in the Norse realm of Jötunheim. Expect monsters.
