It is, of course, no surprise that I love anything weird, creepy, or haunted. Even back in college I was always game to go find something crazy. I clearly remember a night of trying to find some mysteriously glowing eyes in a cemetery near the university. I got violently car sick, and they turned out to be nothing more than car headlights reflecting off a particularly glossy headstone. It was a major disappointment, but it is one of my first memories of trying to find a real haunted location and in applying reason and logic to find out what it really was.
The final three are ones that Rikke did most of the development on, but we both get to play with the full cast.
I did finally finish the first draft of a story I started back in November!
This one is about a Siren preying on an artist who is desperately trying to mend his broken heart after his partner dies by suicide, but who can he trust? The place is rife with ghost, and secrets! Features Kolby, Otis, Seth, and Alex with a brief appearance by Junior.

I thought it might be helpful to post something about each of the characters that we are going to be using in this series of stories we are writing. The characters will vary depending on the story, but there are some characteristics that will stay pretty much the same no matter which of is writing or what is going on.
I will start with the three I developed the most:
What would you think the odds are of knowing two people in different, non-adjacent, states that have seen Skinwalkers. Neither had ever even heard of them before, so it is not that either one was trying to just scare me. I didn’t even realize it until a couple months ago.
It is not that I have not been writing lately, I just have not been working on my projects. I have been pretty busy doing some freelance ghost writing, and it has kept me away from my main projects for a while.
I of course have the Phantasms project with Rikke, my own solo project (tentatively called Blood Lines), and the start of another project, but I also have some other ideas. I want to Narrate Rikke’s “Son of the Moon” as well as some creepy things off of Reddit.
I have been a little obsessed with Skinwalkers lately, after I discovered that the description closely fits what a friend of mine saw and even possibly what my sister’s husband saw. Both of these happened in states far from each other and neither one knows the other, or even what a skinwalker was….
I also have started reading House of Leaves by mark Z. Danielewski. The concept alone is fascinating, but the story is really interesting. I will do a full review once I finish it, but so far I am really liking it.
I have also been watching Gravity Falls on TV. Very cute animated series with monsters and other paranormal creatures. Yes, it is for kids, no I don’t care.
When I have time I have also been listening to Welcome to Night Vale. The only way I can describe it is Tales from Lake Wobegon meets the X-files, but all Mulder’s theories are true…..
