MANY OF YOU HAVE ASKED ME FOR DESCRIPTIONS OF WHAT MY BOOKS ARE LIKE, IN ADDITION TO WHAT YOU CAN READ ...
I AM PLEASED TO OBLIGE.
TO SUM UP MY WORKS BEST WOULD BE TO SAY THAT IF YOU LIKE ANNE RICE, LAURELL K. HAMILTON, POPPY Z. BRITE AND/OR TANITH LEE, BUT ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW SPIN ON TALES FROM THE DARKER SIDE OF LIFE, THEN MY WORKS JUST MIGHT BE FOR YOU.
HOWEVER...DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE ASSOCIATIONS MY WORKS HAVE HAD WITH OTHER BEST SELLING HORROR AUTHORS.
THOUGH MY NAME IS OFTEN SPOKEN IN THE SAME VEIN AS RICE, HAMILTON AND OTHERS, MY WORKS ARE LIKE NOTHING *ANY* AUTHOR HAS EVER WRITTEN NOR ARE THEY LIKE ANYTHING *YOU* HAVE EVER READ.
TREAD THE SHADOWED HALLS OF MY SADISTIC MIND WITH CARE WHEN YOU GLIMPSE INTO MY WORLD. IF YOU ARE LUCKY, YOU JUST MIGHT MAKE IT BACK OUT AGAIN...
~TITLES FOR SALE~
YOU HAVE SPOKEN AND I HAVE LISTENED! I HAVE STARTED MY OWN STORE SO YOU MAY PURCHASE MY WORKS DIRECTLY FROM ME SHOULD YOU WISH! MANY OF YOU HAVE LAMENTED PURCHASING MY WORKS ONLINE OR IN YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO OBTAIN MY AUTOGRAPH FOR THEM.
NOW YOU MAY PURCHASE BOOKS AND OTHER GOODIES DIRECTLY FROM ME AND THEY WILL COME AUTOGRAPHED! REMEMBER THAT SHIPPING AND TAX ARE INCLUDED IF YOU ORDER DIRECTLY FROM ME!
SIMPLY VISIT MY SHOP, THORN HOLLOW TO SEE WHAT WICKEDNESS AWAITS YOU.
SHOULD YOU WISH TO PURCHASE MY BOOKS FROM AMAZON OR IN STORES, YOU MAY STILL DO THAT. A SIMPLE SEARCH ON AMAZON OR A TITLE SEARCH GIVEN TO THE CLERK AT YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE WILL DO THE TRICK. WATCH FOR SIGNINGS IN YOUR AREA!

I'd like to meet:

To my beloved fans near and far, in the US and abroad, I am who I am...because of YOU! A thousand lifetimes it would take me to repay you for your loyalty and support. Just know that you have my undying gratitude. I treasure all of you and appreciate all of the messages...you are my life...

MY FANS AND THOSE WISHING TO BE FANS OR THOSE WHO'D LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MY WORKS AND HOW TO ORDER THEM ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO ADD ME!

I AM A HUGE FAN OF THE FOLLOWING SO IF YOU RECEIVE AN ADD REQUEST FROM ME AND DECIDE AGAINST ACCEPTING, YOU DON'T NEED TO SEND ME A MESSAGE--SIMPLY CLICK DENY. I ADD PEOPLE FOR DIFFERENT REASONS THAT I NEED NOT GO INTO. JUST BE ASSURED THAT *SOMETHING* ABOUT YOUR PROFILE STRUCK ME SO I ADDED YOU. IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO ACCEPT, I WON'T LOSE SLEEP.

1. MMA (MIXED MARTIAL ARTS)

2. HAUNTED HOUSES/ATTRACTIONS/EVENTS

3. ANYTHING INVOLVING THE PARANORMAL (RADIO, INVESTIGATORS, SHOWS, ETC)

4. HORROR/SCI-FI/COMIC BOOK CONVENTIONS

I ALSO GLADLY ACCEPT ADD REQUESTS FROM ALL OF THE ABOVE.

FOR EVERYONE ELSE NOT MENTIONED ABOVE, DO NOT ADD ME IF THE FOLLOWING APPLIES TO YOU:

You own a business unless you wish to sponsor me. I am not here to promote your business without something in return.

You are a filmmaker unless you wish to make my works into a movie.

You're a band. If you're music is like what is currently on my profile, send me a message and I'll have a listen. Otherwise, add my magazine Twisted Dreams.

You're a Comedian - Don't bother. There are only a handful of comedians I like.

You're an author that does not write in a dark, dark fantasy or horror/paranormal related genre.

Your profile is political in ANY way. I LOATHE politics. Enough said.

Your profile is any of the following:
Set to PRIVATE. What do you have to hide? This is a public community. If you're hiding from someone, I don't need or want drama. Thanks but I'll pass.
Blank or you have no picture up yet. It takes two seconds. Why should I devote time to anyone who is lazy?
Women only
You collect people to appear popular
You're looking to hook up for any reason - I'm married, end of story.
Your profile is fanatically religious, Anti or blasphemous toward Christianity. One is as bad as the other. I am a Celtic Christian and proud of it. I don't need some bible banging freak with no life haggling me nor could I care less about why you hate God. I am NOT Dear Abby.

You're clad in a swimsuit, look slutty or are posing like a Playboy wannabe. Don't waste my time.

MY SPACE IS 100% BUSINESS FOR ME. MY ONLY PURPOSES FOR BEING HERE ARE TO NETWORK WITH LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS AND TO MEET MY FANS/MAKE NEW ONES.

Thanks for understanding...
