I’m a writer. I can already hear the inevitable question. “What kind of stuff do you write?â€
“Um…dark fiction, horror.â€
Aghast look. Silence. “Really?â€
“Yes, and I’m not a freak. None of us are. Well, only a few of us are a little 'off'. I’m not a freak!â€
I’ve heard countless times, “You don’t look like a horror writer.†I don’t feel comfortable in heavy eyeliner and black lipstick (except on Halloween). Besides, I’m a writer, not a cliché. Writing the macabre empties out the dark stuff and leaves it on the paper, leaving me free to enjoy the people around me, rather than brood over some dark thought.
So, this is my MySpace page. I won’t be brooding here and neither should you. Happy thoughts, and thanks for stopping by.
