Projects: Matthew Huntley is currently focused on his personal work, Vigilant Lioness.
Location: Indiana"The men could hear them even over the thunder and pounding waves. Hundreds of seagulls swarmed the sky just beyond the dock in a squawking, swirling mass. The saying goes that animals know when calamity will strike long before people do; none of the workers save a handful wanted to stick around and see what horror was headed for shore. It must have been morbid curiosity that kept those last few there. When the giant and Lioness arrived, they dared to peek out. She stood there, a towering sentinel, defiant in the face of so much nature as she waited for the inevitable confrontation." A work from my personal project Vigilant Lioness, where I explore feminism, masculinity, and gender roles through science fiction inspired by Power Rangers, Godzilla, and the things I grew up with.
