Once Upon a Scream
"Once Upon a Scream...there was a tradition of telling tales with elements of the fantastic along with the frightful. Adults and children alike took heed not to go into the deep, dark woods, treat a stranger poorly, or make a deal with someone- or something-without regard for the consequences. Be careful of what you wish for, you just might get it. From wish-granting trolls, to plague curses, and evil enchantresses, these tales will have you hiding under the covers in hopes they don't find you. So lock your doors, shutter your windows, and get ready to SCREAM."

I'm very excited and honored to be in the company of such great authors here. Dan Shaurette and entire the staff at HorrorAddicts.net are just fantastic to work with. I'm extremely grateful they chose to include my work and appreciated their insight and talent at helping me flesh out all the best elements and details to make Lake Tividen all it could be.
I've always been a big fan of those classic fairy tales that feel dark and ominous. I enjoy exploring that old adage, "be careful what you wish for", and the moral debate over whether or not we deserve what we get when we make a deal with the devil. In the case of Lake Tividen, I really wanted the readers to engage with the characters in way that would allow them to experience their fear and powerlessness in the face of a creature that held every card in the deck. I do also believe that there is always hope, even in the bleakest situations. In Lake Tividen, that hope comes in the form of the fisherman's brave and clever daughter, Greta. The ultimate showdown is that familiar but epic battle of good verses evil, steeped in creepy, supernatural horror.
This volume, Once Upon A Scream, is full of creatures like Nokken...evil things that lurk, threaten, terrify and chill. My fellow authors had crafted tales that are all unique in their ability to simultaneously entertain and totally creep you out. I'm looking forward to curling up with my own copy and spending some quality time reading their creations - with the lights on of course!
