Author Description

The thing I like best about Halloween is not the candy (I'd just get fat), the pumpkin carving (really, I'd end up with a pumpkin that would more likely resemble a deformed bowling ball rather than a face), or the weather (I hate rain!), but the stories. Even though I'm not very good at watching horror movies - I just end up with a pillow in front of my face while still jumping from the sounds emanating from the television - I love reading scary books. I really enjoy diving into a world where some strange, unknown, malignant creature is lurking, and to find out it's slowly killing people. It just makes me want to continue reading, even though I know I'll be jumping at shadows for the next couple of nights.
