Halloween
It's that time of the year again! All Hallows' Eve is nearly upon us, for better or for worse. Some people hate it, some people love it.
Personally, I love Halloween. I love decorating (whether it be kid-friendly, a little creepy, or even a little gruesome) and seeing the kids in their costumes. I enjoy seeing what costumes are "in" that particular year, or who might be going against the flow. Perhaps, there's that totally unique costume that makes you say "wow."
I also enjoy dressing up to take my nieces and nephew trick-or-treating or to simply hand out candy. Children, especially the little ones, seem to light up when they see an adult dressed up as well.
I don't get into horror movies as much as I used to. Most of the recent movies are slasher films, and that just doesn't get me excited anymore. They are all the same, just the method of death changes. IF I wanted to hear about deranged people, I would simply turn on the news.
Now, don't misunderstand. I DO love a creepy story. Spiritwood and Forsaken are two spooky books I've enjoyed in the past few years. I've also taken a liking to Evil Things on TLC. I enjoyed watching Paranormal Witness and The Twilight Zone in years past.
Do you enjoy Halloween? What do you like best about it?

Something new - Guest Authors!
I have decided to do something a little different. Author Prakaash Sharma contacted me about doing an interview exchange. I have been interviewed by other bloggers and authors, but never had conducted an interview myself.
I decided to try my hand on it and interviewed Prakaash on my website. He is the author of Life in Shackles and Mindset and Passion: The Psychology of Success.
You can read it here: http://tvanspankeren.wixsite.com/auth... . If this goes over well, I may interview other authors on a monthly to bi-monthly basis.
