Hey, girlfriend! Love looking at your beautiful family on Insta. And congrats on getting into grad school—that’s HUGE!
Furthering your education while raising a family takes so much dedication, and that’s why I think you’d be AMAZING on my team. For the past six months, I’ve been offering blood libations to Sotesh, Mother of Serpents, and let me tell you, it has changed my life! I get to set my own schedule, bleeding the unbelievers when it’s convenient for me. I have the security of knowing that when Sotesh comes in Her glory, I’ll be spared the worst of Her wrath. And She gives Her faithful THE BEST gifts! Just last week, I hit Green Level and was blessed with the ability to shed my soft warm-blood skin. Check out these before and after pics—my acne is COMPLETELY gone! #CobraClear #WhiteheadsAreForWarmbloods
I’m looking to pick up some acolytes, and you’d be a natural. Let me know if you’re interested! And give my love to Jason and the kids. <3
XOXOXO,
Amy

LOLOL! No no nooooooo, the Sisterhood of Sotesh is NOT a demonic murder cult. Murder is ILLEGAL and I would never be part of something like that. I don’t know where Jason gets those ideas! He must have heard about groups like the Order of the Bleeding Maw. They’re a demonic murder cult, and they make legitimate religions like the Sisterhood look bad. We’re just a badass network of women empowering women to empower the Devourer of All Flesh.
Jason should be all for this, though, because joining the Sisterhood will help your whole family! I know how lonely the mom thing can be, and it’s been SUCH a support for me to have all these awesome blood boss babes on my side. You can’t take care of the fam if you can’t take care of yourself, right mama? Plus, your blood libations can earn all sorts of treats and blessings for the kiddos! My little Paisleigh just started tasting the air, and baking cookies with her has never been so fun.
Let me know when you’re ready to make your first sacrifice!
XOXOXO,
Amy

Hey girl! You are SO SMART to ask all these questions—this is why I’ve always admired you. <3
I had a lot of questions at first, too, but joining was SO worth it. I remember what my Sunday mornings used to look like—running around, putting the kids in clothes that they hated, and ignoring them for an hour, right? And they couldn’t play soccer because of all the Sunday morning games.
