Last week, I decided to postpone my podcast and just release a new episode every two weeks. I still feel that was the right move. Since the last episode, I have felt more productive and I was able to focus on my writing and catch up on my reading list. So far, Operation Don’t-Overwhelm-Yourself-You-Jackass hasContinue reading “Ups, downs, and in-betweens…”

Cue the carnival music…
I was looking through my previous work and found this. I love this one. It was in my 2nd book, Craving the Darkness (no longer in print). Felt like sharing again. Enjoy. Steal me away from this place, And take me to the land of darkened dreams, Where we can frolic among the graves, WakingContinue reading “Cue the carnival music…”
Crawling slowly from the grave…
I just finished the first rough draft of the new book. I don’t believe it either, so I’ll say it again: I just finished the first rough draft of the new book. It is only partially illustrated, and it still has to be reviewed by an editor…but the first draft is complete and I alreadyContinue reading “Crawling slowly from the grave…”
Falling back into the spooky…
Hello my lovelies! I am back and I feel spookier than ever! Why would I not feel spooky, you ask? Well, long story short, personal events over the last few months had made me feel somewhat of an aversion to spookiness, death, and darkness. Tis true, tis true! I know, a non-spooky Twisted Libra isContinue reading “Falling back into the spooky…”

What began as a Bram Stoker novel and grew into a Hamilton Deane/JohnContinue reading “The macabre heart flutters today…”
Escaping reality…
This week, I began reading Dracula by Bram Stoker. For the third time. In truth, it is the only book I have ever read more than once, aside from the Scary Stories or Tales for the Midnight Hour series. Each time I read it, I find a new sense of enjoyment for it. This timeContinue reading “Escaping reality…”
Something a little lighter…
I don’t have much to say today. Nothing profound, at least. However, I did write something a while back that I felt like sharing here today. Enjoy! I open my eyes in the darkness, yet somehow I am able to see.Although I lie on a satin cushion, wood rests around and in front of me.AContinue reading “Something a little lighter…”
Kicking and screaming…
I can’t recall, but I am pretty sure I entered this world kicking and screaming. It was not long after midnight, under a Blood Moon, in the month of October. On this very day, in fact. I won’t say exactly how many years ago, but we will just say I have had my share ofContinue reading “Kicking and screaming…”
Children of the night…

As a lover of Dracula, and all things vampire, I would like to wish all of you a happy World Dracula Day! You may or may not know this, but the Dracula mostContinue reading “Children of the night…”
