edit data

Hello, my name is Anthony Izzo and I'm the author of over 40 horror, thriller, and fantasy titles.

I love to write, but when I'm not writing I enjoy spending time with my wife and kids, playing guitar, and drawing fantasy and horror art. I've been told my drawings are as twisted as my fiction, but I'm actually pretty normal. Well, mostly.

Renting a cabin for a week (or weekend) was fairly inexpensive, and the NY State parks had options for handicapped accessible cabins for our son. In addition to the beauty of the park systems, they provided inspiration for some of my novels.
