Dreamin’
Last night, I dreamt that all my friends turned into mermaids, and we went swimming in the ocean. It was fun!
Q:You rock I haven't read The Nightmarys yet but I am going too. I love The Stone Child and so did my Uncle and friend. I am actually writing short stories that I think are pretty good but anyways I wanted to tell you ROCK ON! And keep writing awesome stories. If The Nightmayrs is as good as The Stone Child then I am going to love it. You're AWESOME!
Thanks so much! You’re too kind.
Q:do you have any kids?
I don’t have any HUMAN children. But I do live with 2 cats. And they’re sorta like kids. Right?
Q:what happen in your life that may have led you to write about the topics you write about?
Wow, that’s quite a big question. I don’t think that one specific thing happened to me in my life that made me write about these [spooky] topics. I’ve always just loved reading scary stories and watching horror movies.
Well … okay, the one thing that happened that sort of influenced me to explore the dark side of nature is that when I was eleven years old, my family moved into what we believed was a haunted house in New Jersey.
Lots of crazy things happenedĀ there… Maybe one day I’ll write a book about it…
Some wonderful advice from a wonderful author: Neil Gaiman.
