- About Me:
- I am editor of Tales from the Moonlit Path ezine, writer of horror novels and shorts, mother of three darling, crazy, creative young boys and wife to (thankfully) somewhat normal husband for 16 years.
My short stories have been published in Wicked Hollow, Black Petals, Twilight Times and several others. It's been a while since I published a short story due to the birth of my 3rd child, but I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things now.
I used to be ME of Writer Online, and have taught creative writing to hungry newbies.
I have various (many) hobbies as well like a jewelry making biz, scrapbooking, photography, astronomy, history...

This month Apex Magazine presents a special “international” issue of their online magazine.Patient Zero – Book Review
This is the best zombie novel I’ve read to date. It even knocks Brian Keene’s classic take on the undead, The Rising, out of its top spot.Postscripts To Get Bigger

The Chicago Tribune ran “The Great Chicago Ghost Story” contest for Halloween.
The rules: A Chicago site must be mentioned in the story. No more than 750 words.
I wrote a story. Entered.
Lost.
Here’s the loser.
THE GHOSTS OF CHICAGO, I SET THEM FREE
I see the ghosts of Chicago.
I set them free.
This is a mission statement.
Mine.

Q&A the Second
Q: How does it feel to walk away? You’ve just complete a ginormous four book cycle (well, you finished it a while ago). Is it refreshing to turn back to other things, or do you light-headed?
A: The answer, of course, is yes. I am tremendously grateful to be done with the Doctrine of Labyrinths, but [...]
When I Wish I Wasn’t a Writer
When people ask me what I do for a living, I am always at a bit of a loss as to how to answer. It sounds a little too highfaluting to announce, “I am an author.” You just can’t say that sentence without sounding like you graduated from Oxford, or that you [...]
Dream Versus Time, Life, the World, And All The Really Important Things
The holidays are coming. We’re arriving at an intersection of worlds – the real and the imagined, outer and inner, concrete and symbolic, the past and the now.
What must be done, what needs to be done.
Kids dressed up as monsters expect candy offerings. Blood-bonded friends and enemies gather for the ritual slaughter [...]
Long-Term Relationships With Your Characters
One of the things authors decide when they sit down to write is how long and drawn out their relationship will be with particular characters. There are short stories, novellas, novels, and then – at the far end of the spectrum, you find trilogies and the continuing series. Each of these involves a level of [...]

But to be honest, I'm kinda eager for all the siblings and their kids and great aunts and out of state friends to give that one last hug so I can wave to them all as they let me have a clear shot to my own fridge.
But that's only because I'm old and cantankerous and so damn hateful when dealing with humanity as a whole.
Ho ho ho. Everyone get off my lawn. And Happy New Years!
How was your holiday? Anything special?
Just wanted to stop in and get your opinion on my latest cover design posted to my blog...
I would love your input.

I just want you to know I think you walk on water and are a wonderful person. Not like these other chat room people from like um, wikapedia who say such awful things probably out of jealousy!
True Friends Forever. I got your back, buddy! And I'm not making any of this up, I swear!
Um, Greg
You know what another great book is? Little Rabbit Foo-Foo! What an ending!
Most of my horror is based off of that brilliant piece of literature.
Zombie Chickens - they are my new "horsemen" of the Apocalypse. I've bread them special just for the coming of the end. Soon, soon, you shall hear them cackle....but for now, "mum's" the word. Hehehehe.
