Great. Hope you enjoy it!

I'm not sure that my work has actual "villians" who either win or lose. I mean, since it's dark speculative fiction, bad stuff generally happens, but it's usually not a hero/villain thing. I guess some of my shorts, collected in Little Deaths, end on bad notes... "Calendar Girl, "The Lacquered Box," "The Mire of Human Veins, "Box of Rocks." In my latest novel, The Bell Witch, the spirit ultimately does what she says right up front she's there to do. And in my upcoming thriller--Kill/Off, out in October--the hero is really an anti-hero. So...does that give you some idea?
