edit data

I am a lifelong avid reader with a passionate love for a good story, be it fiction on nonfiction. As a kid, I loved genre movies-westerns, gangsters, horror-because the story was king with those kind of flicks, same with comic books, another life long passion. After years of reading, I decided to try my hand at writing the kind of fiction I enjoyed and learned there is no greater satisfaction than to labor on something you love and then discover others find pleasure in it as well.

The vampires attack down south of the border.

Big Crimson 2 The Vampire Next Door by F.C. Schaefer

In my vampire horror series BIG CRIMSON, the blood suckers prowl the night, blending in among the mortals, pretending long enough to find a victim to feed upon. In the first book, a young man named Kyle is the Good Samaritan who saves the life of a creature of the night named Jim, putting him in Kyle’s debt. Which is a good thing, because to save Jim, Kyle slew Zachariah Locke, the chief of a Read more of this blog post »
