I’ve donated my article, “Take Me by the Hand: How the Danse Macabre Became Real,” to help raise funds for Into the Dark. 🌑

It’s available exclusively to Kickstarter backers. Even $1 helps bring this dark fantasy anthology to life.

Only 1 week left to join us! www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

On second thought, Blake Crouch was not the best author to try to drift off to sleep reading.
Three and a half hours later I’m laying awake in the dark plotting escape routes in case the Northern Lights turn everyone into murder maniacs.

OMG, I missed that! I was looking at the girl fending off the birds and thinking that's weird the artist would so perfectly capture bad acting for a book cover, lol.

What dies inside you
when our bodies press together?
What small #witchcraft withers?
