Lions, And Tigers, And Flying Monkeys? Oh, MY! This one is for Angelique.

It is true that I wear a rather large medallion around my neck for inspiration. It is, indeed, a portrait of a FLYING MONKEY. Flying monkeys must scare people, because I am often asked if it is some sort of demon. I wonder how many children that scene scared in the Wizard of Oz? Of course, I love all things dark and dangerous so that was my favorite scene when I was a kid. I wear the medallion to remind me that imagination is key in the type of work that I am in. I am a hopeless realist and fatalist from the bottom of my dark, dark heart and you can imagine how that might interfere. Thank you so much for your comment, Angelique. It brings me to my next comment suggestion.........What movie scared you the most as a child? What scene? Until next time, may you have a good night and your nightmares be good.

The Beginning Of The Dark, Dark Blog

Beware! Um, I mean Welcome! This is the beginning of The Dark, Dark Blog, which currently looks a little, um, dark.........in good time I hope to keep you updated on the children's book which I am currently writing. I write horror children's stories (Because when I was a child, I loved anything that snapped, trapped, slit, bit, growled, howled, and filled me with screams or nightmarish dreams!), and I want to hear from everyone else out there that hears a bump in the night and says "Finally!". Thanks for stomping..........I mean stopping by. In the future I hope to have Monstrous Messages and even (Gasp!) ghastly giveaways!!!! If you would like to leave a comment, my suggestion for my first post is "Your first nightmare.". Good Evening.
