And no, I'm not delusional or day dreaming. I swear. I can never find them again. Just this week it happened to me where the lid of a takeout item was just gone, never to be seen in the kitchen again. No one was home except me. I think there's a story lurking somewhere in these incidents.(less)

Give A Book A Fair Shot Beyond 50 Pages

Hi. If you recently won my book Photogeist in a Goodreads Giveaway contest, thank you for entering the contest and congratulations on winning the book.
If you haven't already checked out the book, I hope you will. It's meant to be a light, fun, and yet scary paranormal ride from start to finish.

I've had a few readers quit on the book after the first 2 chapters without really giving the book a go. I Read more of this blog post »
