When I write, I see and hear the scenes like a movie in my head. So I need silence to HEAR IT.
Then I must find the words to describe it.

Q2.
How do you use sound, music, or the absence of it?
And if we're speaking of the absence of it, Disturbed's Sound of Silence (with Myles Kennedy) is way better than the original of it and you'll just have to accept that.
I will die on this hill!

Hellooooo!
I'm Kathy and I write MG horror that's emotional and creepy.
And I don't listen to music while I write...For I will focus on the music and not the writing.

#HorrorWritersChat
Q1.
#HorrorWritersChat, you know what to do.
No links. Not till the end. No sneaky promo. Just lots of lovely lovely chat.

I'll be honest. December is NEVER a productive time for me. NEVER.

Each year I think that it'll be different...IT WON'T.

Brain's need breaks. The creativity needs to regenerate.

Love this book! And the two giant dogs.

AND THE CREEPY GHOST
Don't you think a Victorian gothic ghost story would be a great addition to the recent lineup of successful gothic period pieces like Frankenstein and Nosferatu? Something about a woman tossing aside societal standards for independence? In a remote seaside manor? With two giant dogs??? Yeah, me too.
