And you know what the worst part is? Those kinds of
people will always get away with it. The universe never
punishes them. Karma never gets them.

The glamour of being an indie writer. I ordered copies of my book for the upcoming cons, and the geniuses at Amazon packed my laundry detergent with itβ€”this is the result. Oprah help me. The detergent is everywhere β€” my clothes, the floor, all over my books.

Someone tell me something good!

Happy 38th anniversary to one of my all-time favorites, my beloved Chopping Mall! This movie is a classic and should be seen by everyone! This was one of the first 2 horror movies I ever rented on VHS πŸ“Ό (the other being the wonderful April Fool’s Day). Have a nice day! #HorrorMovies #ChoppingMall

Dreams where I'm being chased...ugh. I'm not tough enough in real life to do battle against a crazy person.

I had the opportunity to be a guest on Lisa Vasquez's Momento Mori podcast. It was such a fun time and I don't get to do cool stuff like this often, so I'm pretty excited today. Please give it a watch! #HorrorWriter #HorrorPodcast #IndieAuthor

Origin of the word β€œspinster” was in reference to their occupation and used to convey independent women who supported themselves and shunned social norms and expectations of their day; these women were considered useful and self-sufficient. Now people use it in a derogatory way. #HorrorWritersChat
