OK, you see this review and think 'That's biased, he's listed as the illustrator!' Yep, that's true, I decided to make a cover for this short story. I'm also an author of horror stories, so that should underrate all my reviews? No way! I'm a reader first, just like you, and was so caught by Mrs. Johnesee's anthology that I contacted her to know more about her writing. She's a nice person, open to suggestions and advice. I suggested her to allow people get a sample of her writing skills with 'DOORS', the best from her collection in my humble opinion. I was so in love with the story that I offered myself as cover designer ... and she accepted. What's so amazing in this shorty, you are surely wondering? It's twists and well-researched plot. Mrs. Johnesee knows a lot about human psychology, and she shows it in this tale. Being a short tale, I can't tell you more, except you have to read down to the last line to get the whole drama. And that's amazing. I'm so proud to have my tiny piece of art gracing the cover of this little jewel.
This is an amazing short story that will open your eyes to mental illness and make you wonder if some of the doctors who work with these people really know what they are getting into. This is a fictional story but gives you the feeling that this is something that could happen. This story is incredibly well written and I promise after you read it you will be looking for more by this outstanding author, Jamie Johnesee.
This was suggested to me. Have never read the author, and was quite pleased. The story was an easy read, kept my attention. Five stars and I'll add her to my list of authors to keep an eye on.
