| For this reread (one of many) I listened to the Audible full cast version, which is delicious. A more perfect narrator casting than Tim Curry as Van Helsing does not exist. Highly recommend. | |

“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”

“You must write every single day of your life... You must lurk in libraries and climb the stacks like ladders to sniff books like perfumes and wear books like hats upon your crazy heads... may you be in love every day for the next 20,000 days. And out of that love, remake a world.”

Hi thank you so much for accepting my friend request!!eagerly waiting for The Book of Cold Cases
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, dear appreciated Simone! May we all be blessed, happy, and at peace. May we all be in long-lived good health and may the prayers we have, be answered!I am proud of the spotlight that free e-book campaigns of "The Broken Girls" has clearly shone on your work. However, I want you to know: my spouse happily invested in the full-priced hardcover as a gift for me! Our favourite authors are worth buying new and you know your non-horror paranormal mysteries thrill me. Your friend, Carolyn.
Wow, thank you very much! Stephen King is a favorite of mine :)
There are two authors who inspire me, because I love their writing style, the vivid depiction of their characters, and most of all, the originality of their plots (the most difficult thing to find nowadays). These authors are Simone St James and Stephen King. So there you go, as a newbie writer myself, consider me jealous of your talent!! ;)
Hi Simone, thanks for accepting my friend request! I really enjoyed The Haunting Of Maddy Clare and
I am looking forward to reading your other novels.
Hi, I'm very happy to meet you and look forward to discussing books with you. If you ever have any questions about any of the titles on my shelves, please ask away. I'll be happy to answer them.
Hey, Babe! Welcome Aboard! Now you can figure out all the cool corners in this universe and tell me where they are!
