I'll be honest. December is NEVER a productive time for me. NEVER.

Each year I think that it'll be different...IT WON'T.

Brain's need breaks. The creativity needs to regenerate.

Love this book! And the two giant dogs.

AND THE CREEPY GHOST
Don't you think a Victorian gothic ghost story would be a great addition to the recent lineup of successful gothic period pieces like Frankenstein and Nosferatu? Something about a woman tossing aside societal standards for independence? In a remote seaside manor? With two giant dogs??? Yeah, me too.

Oooooohhhhh! Look at the pretties!!!
Inheriting Her Ghosts is excellent! Bottling His Ghosts is NEXT on my TBR pile. The Ungodly Duology is SO FREAKIN FUN. And Reap, Sow is SO SO SO FABULOUS!
So…of you need something new and amazing…here you go.

HI!
I'm Kathy. I write middle grade horror. And some short stories here and there.

And...hmmmm...

I...
I...don't write a lot of stories with men...

Huh.
#HorrorWritersChat
Here we go, #HorrorWritersChat!

Q1 has arrived. It's international men's day today, and I thought actually that's a good topic. Not the easiest one to build questions around, either. So if I do not hit the mark I am sure you will forgive me.
As usual, no links, no pitches, not till the end.

Happy international Men's Day!
And it's Wednesday. That means.... #HorrorWritersChat assemble... 8pm my time CET.
