Background Information

My writing tends to have dark undertones and haunting themes.  Reading nothing but Stephen King and Edgar Allan Poe as a child created a monster within my brain - who's pulling at the shackles to break free and escape. My elementary teacher told me I was the only 4th grader she'd ever seen reading Pet Cemetary, and I took that as grand a compliment.
