My favorite books.

 Good evening my Ravens. Tonight I'm going to tell you about some of my favorite books I have read. Admittedly I have a very short list of writers I read, but they are some of the best! I've read Dean Koontz and Stephen King longer than anyone, but I am also a big fan of Tami Hoag and some Nora Roberts. The first book on my list is "Bag Of Bones" by Stephen King. I guess I may relate to it more, because the main character is a writer, but I think the story was brilliant and had just the right amount of romance. Another plus is that you got a true happy ending which is sometimes rare in King books. Next up we have "Life Expectancy" by Dean Koontz. This is one of the most creative storylines I've ever read and I knew I would love it just by reading the cover. (Not going to go into plots or details as this post would end up being a Novelette!) This was another book that had a perfect ending. As you have learned by now, even though I love horror, I'm a sucker for happy endings. LOL. I'm going to put Tami Hoag's Kovac and Liska series as one on this list. I read "Dust to Dust" on a whim one day and fell in love with the characters. All three of the books are excellent and action packed. The other two are "Prior Bad Acts" and "The 9th Girl." Earlier I mentioned I liked some Nora Roberts as I've only read two. However both were incredible 5 star reads. "Blue Smoke" was the first and I loved it, but after reading "Northern Lights" I love IT even more! There is a lot of romance in her books, but I don't mind as long as there is an interesting secondary plot and there was in both of these. well, that's my list and I recommend  looking these up. Have a good night and Happy reading!!

Why are so many people turned off by Horror?

Whether it be a book signing or a writers conference people definitely have a different look on their face when they get to my table. Their eyes get wide when they see my book covers and 9 times out of 10 they do the fake little shiver then say "Oh, I don't like Horror. I have nightmares" In turn I want to vomit. The question for me is why is scary stuff such a big deal to people? It's like trying to sell to The Cowardly Lion and a thousand of his clones. Okay, you have nightmares. Is that really a big deal? You're telling me you have a nightmare and you're afraid of the dark for 6 months? Heck, sometimes I enjoy a good nightmare, it gives me story material. One scene in my book "Snowy Pines" came from a nightmare. It's like people think they have to read something that's all Unicorns and rainbows to enjoy it. I mean, Life doesn't work that way. This world can be a very bad place and to pretend otherwise is foolish to me. Yes, my books ar...

A sample from Accents of Horror- Story 1 " A Stranger in the rain."

Danny Miller drove aimlessly down the dark road squinting through each swipe of the wiper blades. About 15 miles back, the rain began in sprinkles and the transformed into a full-out monsoon. This was a recipe for disaster considering he had not slept in close to forty-eight hours. Luckily he had seen little traffic on this highway thus far. And at least he had quit drinking. Eight months ago, Danny was an average American. He worked nine to five in a factory driving a forklift. It was a nonstop routine, but he was a creature of habit anyway. Plus he made decent money. He had been married three years to a young waitress he met at a diner he had lunch at every day. One day he had walked in and she said "Let me guess. a BLT and a side of fries?" "Am I that predictable?" He had replied. "Yes, you're here every day sweetie. Either you really love the food or you're sweet on me." "Can't it be both?" He asked After that, they ...

The missing video: Diary of an Aspie 5

This is the missing video in my Diary of an aspie series. It was right after a VERY rough time in my life struggling with depression. I think part of the reason I haven't shared it much is because I didn't want to be reminded of it, but I hope it helps someone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GvqFKOXvjY
