Wow, thank you so much, Jennifer! I’m so happy you’re enjoying my work. I haven’t read John Saul yet, but Richard Matheson is one of my main influences and inspirations. Any time he gets mentioned, I light up.

Thanks again, Jennifer. This was very appreciated. :-)

I am working my way through the works of Jonathan Janz.

The thing that strikes me is that he writes horror that doesn't resolve into happy endings. The kind of endings where the evil is defeated and the heroes come through learning a lesson.
When the real monsters show up, no one gets away. That's a true horror novel.

Thank you so much, Ashley! It's great to meet you, and I love the double-threat of great book fan and baseball fan. That's a wonderful combination! :-)

Hi Jonathan! I LOVED your review of Dark Places and how Gillian Flynn = Mike Trout (fellow baseball fanatic here, WOOHOO!!)

Thanks for your friendship.

Thanks for the friend request Jonathan! :->

Hey there, Jonathan! Thanks for the friend request! So funny... I was just asking in another thread if anyone else thought that early exposure to good horror writers might have really been influential... made them horror lovers for life. Seems like a trend... more than other genres, even. Your mention of a childhood between a dark forest and a graveyard brought that to mind. ;) Your books look amazing. All the synopses sound intriguing. Do you have a fave, or a particular title you'd suggest starting with?

Thanks again, and I'll talk to you soon!

Party pooper! We were having so much fun imaging you squirm. So what happened this time Jonathan? You did once say I was a sadistic woman...remember? LOL!

I'll get you both back one of these days. :-)
