I’m very flattered to be interviewed by Crimson Flower Reviews. They asked some great questions and really made me think. So if you’re curious about where I get my ideas, who … More Interviewed at Crimson Flower Reviews!
I wanted to share this with all those who had either been on the fence contributing to the kickstarter campaign for Evil Jester Presents comics, or those who hadn’t heard.

Well, I suppose it’s time to wrap up Women in Horror Month. I know I went over, but seriously, is it really fair that the shortest month of the year be devoted to such a cool subject? I’d like to once again thank all the talented ladies (and a gent) who were kind enough to … More Women in Horror Recognition Month: Final Thoughts
One last guest post we have to get in, but I wanted to include a piece by my friend and fellow NBP author Zillah Anderson! *** Horror in the Everyday So often we think of horror involving the foreign or the supernatural.
