Scary Places

There are classic scary places—haunted mansions and isolated lighthouses come to mind—but locating a story in a place closer to home is another option.

My new Monster Meditation explores locating a scary story in your neighborhood.

NaNoWriMo

Are you participating in National Novel Writing Month? Have you ever done it?

I'm curious. The New Monster Meditation is all about my fascination and decision that it's not for me as I head to THE END in the first draft of a new novel.

Witche's Blog Party

Sometimes Truth is Stranger than Fiction!

My contribution to the table at the ParaYourNormal Witch's Tea Party (a blog party) is a true story from my distant past.

Read Defying the Witch... it's where stories come from and where storytellers are challenged.
