“Silly little monster, should have just held my tongue.” – Meg Myers

Today I’m going to do something I haven’t done in awhile, and indulge in a bit of self-promotion. Writing Bloc is releasing my collection of short stories, Silly Little Monsters, in time for Halloween.

Silly Little Monsters is a whimsical collection of nine tales to chill your spine and tickle your funny bone. These aren’t your typical bedtime stories. From “Alpha” to “Omega”, everybody wants to make sense of their world.

To find a place to belong.

To connect.

What can be scarier than that?

The e-book is available for pre-order on Amazon. Paperbacks will be available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble by Halloween for that fantastic new book smell. The stories span different genres from urban fantasy to realistic fiction. They are intended for young adults and up due to thematic content, and some adult language and situations.

An earlier version of “Alpha” first appeared in Writing Bloc’s Deception anthology, alongside amazing stories written by many new and established authors. I’m eternally grateful to my editor Cari Dubiel for believing in my work, and to graphic designer G.A. Finocchiaro for helping to bring my vision to life.

I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.

Meanwhile it’s a race between two exciting works in progress, A Better Me and Fallen, to see which will become my debut novel.

If the writing thing doesn't work out, my backup plans include ninja, rock star, or international jewel thief.
