W. Todd Banks--Horror Writer

Writer of Dark Things

About Me

I am a new writer in the horror genre. I have yet to be published and am looking forward to that occasion. Todays horror market is filled with quality authors and I have a lot of work ahead of myself just to get in the door. One day my name will be on a novels cover and spine...My dream is to rub elbows with the likes of Brian Keene, Tim Lebbon, Jack Ketchum, Christopher Golden and the rest of that diabolical lineup I call my horror heroes...one day guys...one day!!!

My Interests

Writing and Ghosthunting

I'd like to meet:

George A. Romero, Tom Savini, Gregory Solis, Brian Keene, Tom Piccirilli, Bentley Little, Brian Lumley, Ramsey Campbell, Richard Laymon, Douglas Clegg, Christopher Golden and any other horror novelists out there.View All Friends | View Blog | View Pics | Add Comment
