Frequently Asked Questions (Forbidden Knowledge):

More Forbidden Knowledge coming in the future...

• Will any of your tales ever feature [insert a specific phobia or creature]? 

Send me a private message and we will see.

• Are the locations in your stories based on real places? 

Some locations are real, some are a mixture of real and fantasy, and even others are pure horror.

• What is the inspiration behind the creatures in [a specific work]? 

Real people inspire my stories in the Death Inc series. Some of those stories have a prophetic twist, others is just wishful thinking. Others are more or less obvious 'pop-culture references'. Some of the creatures and other characters in Misthaven likewise have a loose basis in real life.

• Will there ever be a crossover between the worlds of 'Death Inc.' and 'Misthaven'?

It is possible that someone from one of worlds would have a cameo in the other, nothing is settled yet. Be afraid, be very AFRAID.

• What are your thoughts on [a specific horror trope or subgenre]?

I have a very few that I will not watch, give me specific genre and I will answer.

• Do you believe in ghosts or the supernatural?

Yes, I believe in ghosts, though creatures and monsters? I think man is bigger monster. Such is the reason for …Humans behaving badly.

• What advice do you have for aspiring horror writers?

Practice, practice and practice some more. Like many authors suggest I agree that writing everyday is required, even if you are not working on the same project every day, Be creative.

• Will there be more stories featuring [a specific character]?

I have created a web of ideas for the short stories that make up Misthaven. Yes there will be characters being seen in some and/or many of the stories. Now about Death Inc, while each chapter is a story in itself, there are continuing stories that cross from book to book, so yes, expect to see specific characters over and over.

• What is the most terrifying thing you have ever imagined?

Wait and watch, it will there.

• Do you ever get scared writing your own stories?

Scared while writing, not so much. BUT, I do sometimes get so into the story that I am startled by my other half calling or one of my fur-babies touching me. Not being scared, just too focused.
