You would think that I would be a horror writer, at least for the most part, but I’ve almost kept my little secret, well a secret. In truth, I enjoy many genres. My primary writing path took me into thrillers and crime fiction and that has been a blast – don’t worry it will continue as long as I can write or that there’s even one more breath in my body.
There has been a little more sinister side to my writing prose. In fact, I would call it a writing adventure into the horror, scary, and even monstrous with some paranormal thrown in for good measure. I can’t actually remember what was the very first horror film I saw, but whatever it was it didn’t stop me from watching more. When I was a kid, I never slept with a nightlight or begged for my bedroom door to stay open to let a sliver of light into the darkened room. You could say that I was fearless when it came to the pitch black of a child’s bedroom.
I have many stories that I would like to pursue in the horror genre. I decided to unleash my first short story a while back to see what I was made of, and if it was something that I would pursue in the future. So, FIRST WATCH was created …
What was the first horror movie you ever watched? At least with your eyes open!
