I haven't read any books that are about nightmares, real nightmares before I've read your fantastic book 'The Nightmare-affair'. It was such a new story for me because I always hear about vampires, angels, devils, demons, wolfs, etc. But about nightmares not at all for my sadness. So my question is: How could you create or even thing about this type of creatures? Sorry if a similar question had been answered before.

Mindee Arnett Thank you so much for the question and even more for reading. Sadly though, I can't take credit for inventing nightmares. They're a folkloric creature and have been around for ages. In Old Norse folklore they are known as "mara" Well, not how they exist in my books, but similar. You can find information about them online. The Nightmare Affair was partially inspired the a famous painting called "The Nightmare" by Henry Fuseli. If you look it up, you might see some similarities. Thanks again!
