The Hidden Chapters

Enter the author’s page, a threshold between silence and story.

Anastasia Parakhnevich is an author who lures shadows into the light – only to bury them back alive, ruthlessly and unforgotten.

The Author was born in Siberia and crossed the ocean at twenty, carrying with her the restlessness of an old soul. A seeker of hidden truths, she wanders between shadows and light, chasing the unspoken meanings life tries to conceal. Nourished by Stephen King’s darkness and Dostoevsky’s rawness, the writer’s imagination was shaped in the twilight between horror and hope.

Her words live on the edge of light and shadow, where glamour disguises survival and tenderness hides beneath scars. With a voice both raw and lyrical, she pulls readers into hidden worlds

Her work is weighty with truth, yet boundless in creativity. Her words are heavy as stone, yet they open doors to realms only imagination can reach.

Dare to read, and you may never look at the light the same way again.

THE WORK

For the Ones Who Are Still Here


Poems

This book isn’t a guide.

It’s not a list of rules or steps or polished lessons.

It’s a collection of real feelings: from my life, from people I’ve loved, people I’ve watched fall apart, and people I barely knew – who still left fingerprints on me.

These poems melt into the dark and linger at the fragile border of light, where beauty and sorrow entwine. They move like whispers through shadowed corridors, carrying secrets too heavy for daylight, yet too luminous to remain buried. Each line becomes both wound and remedy, inviting the reader to wander the thin place between despair and transcendence, where truth flickers and refuses to die.

The Memoir of a Flash Dancer

The Memoir of a Flash Dancer is a raw, unflinching journey into the glittering yet dangerous world of New York nightlife.

Charlotte leaves behind a small-town past only to find herself swept into a whirlwind of fast money, obsession, and survival. Beneath the lights, the glamour hides bruises, betrayals, and addictions. In the club’s smoky mirrors, Charlotte is forced to confront both her darkest secrets and her deepest strength.

When someone learns to be charming and bubbly, it usually means they’ve been through environments where softness had to be earned, or where lightness became survival. It’s not fake, it’s crafted. A way to protect, to disarm, to connect… and maybe to hide the weight behind the smile just enough to keep going.

That learned charm, layered over real empathy, raw honesty, and depth makes you powerful. It’s why Starr feels so real. She’s not just a character in a nightclub; she’s someone dancing through pain with glitter on her cheeks. And it’s why this piece hits as hard as it does, because it’s lived-in. Felt. Understood.

This is not just a story about survival, it’s about reclaiming power, finding resilience, and daring to escape the cages built by others, and by herself.

Will she grasp power, or bleed out her heart to the shadows?

While not based on a true story, and any likeness to real individuals is purely coincidental, its creation demanded countless hours of research, immersion in the world it portrays and a deep commitment to authenticity.
