About this author

The daughter of a Norwegian Viking and a Finnish Moomin, Karina Halle grew up in Vancouver, Canada with trolls and eternal darkness on the brain. This soon turned into a love of all things that go bump in the night and a rather sadistic appreciation for freaking people out. Like many of the flawed characters she writes, Karina never knew where to find herself and has dabbled in acting, make-up artistry, film production, screenwriting, photography, travel writing and music journalism. She eventually found herself in the pages of the very novels she wrote (if only she had looked there to begin with).

Karina holds a screenwriting degree from Vancouver Film School and a Bachelor of Journalism from TRU. Her travel writing, music reviews/interview...more


As promised on my EIT Facebook page, as a thank you for my fans, here is another quick Dex POV from Darkhouse — the popular “pie” scene. Man, it is a rollercoaster being in this man’s head. The Dex-Files is going to be very interesting (and fun) to write. And I hope come August, it will be just as much fun to read.

Paige Aw, thanks for the well wishes. This llama... Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. My friends (online and IRL) have listened to my curse about it for ages and I'm still not done. Some people really are fucking nuts. I wish more could be done about them.

I love the word douchecanoe, though. Every time I see it used, no matter who it's applied to or why it's being used, it makes me smile. Such a good little word.


message 10: by Paige

Paige Thanks for the friend request, Karina! I'm sorry you've had to deal with that kind of shit because you don't play their way. Fuck them. Swearing makes you 100% more awesome, in my opinion. Besides, all those people who say "don't swear!" miss out on all the fun swearing parties. You haven't lived until you've gotten into a swearing fight with someone and won. ;)


Miranda Stork Thanks for the friendship :)


Skyla (Happy Go Lucky and Lost in Books) Thanks for the friend request =)

LOL! Ahhh memories. Actually I must note that the second reason I added you is because you used a gif of Chandler. And that is all win in my books :)
