Lindsay Currie is the author of spooky middle grade novels. While she's never experienced anything truly paranormal, Lindsay enjoys researching her city's forgotten history and learning about the events that shaped the many ghost legends in Chicago. When she's not reading or writing a mystery novel of her own, Lindsay can generally be found taking long walks with her family, chilling with one of her three dogs, or searching the graveyard for her next antagonist.

Lindsay has four middle-grade novels out currently - THE PECULIAR INCIDENT ON SHADY STREET, SCRITCH SCRATCH, WHAT LIVES IN THE WOODS and THE GIRL IN WHITE. Coming soon: IT FOUND US!

Occupying someone else's mind is a wonderful thing, and that's exactly what I try to do when I'm fleshing out a new character. For me, writing is a peaceful experience, a serene reprieve from the chaos of everyday life. Quite frankly, even if I'd never ended up published, I know I could never give up writing because it's woven so tightly into my personality:)(less)

Hi Melissa!

CREED is fully fabricated and actually originated from a dream my co-author had, but we are aware that cults do exist in various forms all over the world. That's what drew us to write this particular story - the "it could happen" aspect is scary, perhaps scarier than your typical slash and gore horror is. We love a good monster as much as the next guy, but we also love exploring the darkness of the human mind!(less)

Quotes by Lindsay Currie  (?)

“Life doesn't always give us the choices we want. All we can do is make the best of things.”
Lindsay Currie, The Girl in White

“Today is October first. It barged in on a gust of chilly air with red and orange leaves on its heels. Morning fog settled over our narrow streets like a cold, wet blanket, and everyone—and I mean everyone—is already wearing their chunkiest sweaters. For most people I know, October isn’t just the end of T-shirts and flip-flops; it’s the beginning of the best month of the year. Halloween month.”
Lindsay Currie, The Girl in White

“love Ms. Mancini. She’s the only teacher I have who wouldn’t shame a student for falling asleep in class. I think she remembers what it was like to be in seventh grade and that’s what makes her so good at her job.”
Lindsay Currie, Scritch Scratch: A Ghost Story
