This is my interview at Meghan's haunted house of books. https://mhyden.blog/2021/09/03/author...

Thinking
I'm thinking about what I am going to do this Halloween 🎃 with my Bride of Frankenstein series. Maybe give out free copies on Halloween. I have done my Halloween interview with Megan's haunted house of books. I will post it next month. I like it because they added links and pics. There's a video about the Jersey devil and the Nightmare Before Christmas theme song. I also gave book and movie recommendations. May I recommend amazon prime for choosing this year's horror fest?
Almost finished Halloween shopping. How about you? I got plenty of solar powered lights this year! Have fun this year. Now if only I could decide on a costume.

My interview
Jazzy book reviews
Author Interview
1. Favorite childhood memory involving books?
Reading The Lion, the Witch, the Wardrobe in class.
2. If you could dine with any literary character, who would it be and why?
Huckleberry Finn, that was one of my favorite books in high school and my teacher showed the movie in class. Can't watch that one too many times. I also like time period 1800's. I am a fan of retro.
3. What fantastical fictional world would you want to live in (if any) given the chance?
Dracula, I like Dracula's brides. I just think female vampires are neat.
4. If you had to describe yourself in three words, what would they be?
Quiet, artistic, and calm.
5. What’s one movie you like recommending to others?
Brahm Stoker's Dracula. Watch it every chance I get.
6. If you could own any animal as a pet, what would it be?
A parrot, they are beautiful and can talk.
7. Have you ever met anyone famous?
A lot of authors. I went to Karen Kay's book signing once.
8. If you were the last person on Earth, what would you do?
Hide in the church and pray to God to make more people.
9. What fictional character would you want to be friends with in real life?
Mrs. Rochester so I can ask her ghost what happened to her.
10. Do you have any advice for aspiring writers?
Take writing classes and always edit. You don't have to pay to be published when you can self publish for free.
11. What book do you wish you had written?
I wanted to write Gone With the Wind though it would be half as long. I always liked Katie Scarlett O'Hara.
12. If you could live in any time period, what would it be and why?
The 1950's. I would go to my Mom's wedding.
13. What is your favorite genre to read?
Ghost stories/Horror. There are all kinds.

Review on my latest Halloween story
Love On All Hallows Eve Review:
'“Love On All Hallows Eve” is the perfect book to get you in the mood for Halloween. It is short yet atmospheric and will want you leaving for more.
Don’t let the number of pages fool you. Even though this book is less than 30 pages, it is entertaining on every page. The story moves quickly with many twists and turns, as the author shocks us with what Terra does on the eve of Halloween. While the night’s incident gets over in the first half of the story, I also enjoyed the second half that deals with the repercussions of what Terra does. You will not notice the time fly by once you start reading this short novella.
The author also writes the characters dynamically. I enjoyed Terra in the lead and the emotions she feels, considering what we know about her. More than Terra, I adored Rose, the psychic. When Cortez came into the picture, I thought the author was writing another story, but then realized how she seamlessly blends Cortez and Rose into Terra’s tale. I thought I was reading an homage to the classic Frankenstein tale, as the protagonist plays with life and tries to bring the characters back from the dead." -Rajiv's Reviews 4 🌟

book review
Review for The Mystery Of Frankenstein's Bride.
"This is a short story about Terra, the to be bride of Frankenstein and her former lover Nathaniel who she brings back from his grave after knowing from her neighbour that the person she once loved was dead. The idea of the story is quite unique and somewhat creepy, first I really thought it’d be a fun read but definitely it isn’t. Bringing back dead to life isn’t a good idea, that Terra realised in a hard way.
She regrets later on. This was a quick read it only took half & hour to finish the book. Funny thing is at first I thought few pages are missing but then I downloaded everywhere possible and realised that’s this a short story not even a novella. And I expected more pages cause I liked the storyline and the way it was started. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own. Thank you @netgalley and @booksgosocialgroup for the #arc in exchange for an honest review."
