Hello, my loves! Man, it has been a minute. Life, kids, divorce, blah blah blah you know the drill. But I'm trying to get ahead of all the resolution making and kick things off a couple months early. Hence, my glorious return to this twisted little corner of the interweb. Let's dive right in, shall we? Nearly 44 years ago to this very day, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald left port in Superior, Wisconsin. She carried a crew of 29 and a shipment of ore pellets, their path set to Detroit via Lake Superior. Now let's give you a little lake breakdown. Lake Superior is the l[...]

0 Hello, Kittens!! Long time, no chat! How the hell are you guys? How's your writing coming along? Comment if you have any new releases so I can check them out! It's the time of year that there's not much I love more than curling up with a book while watching the snow fall. Once the snow starts to pile, I find myself thinking about one story every year....The Dyatlov Pass Incident. Something about that story has stuck with me since I first heard about it many (many - ugh) years ago. Maybe it's the fact that the tent was ripped open from the insid[...]
Helllllo, Kittens! I feel kinda bad for referring to you guys as kittens for the last year or two, since I've recently become a cat owner myself. And let me tell you about Velociraptor. She's a complete jerk. Love her, but holy hell. The cat is a dick. One cannot simply talk about a kitten without sharing a photo. Anyhoo. Our founding mother / one of the greatest humans alive, Jolene, gifted me a copy of Gretchen McNeil's newest book, #MurderTrending, and I just have to tell you guys about it. So...shall we? I'm going to steal the book jacket off GR,[...]
Happy Friday, the 13th! I was going to do another Ode to Jason post, but I wanted to share a little personal somethin somethin with you guys. I used to live on the water. Not the ocean – no, nothing that luxurious – just on a little lake in the middle of nowhere. We had a rickety old dock and everything. I used to count down the days to spring, because once the water warmed up enough, I could start my day with a swim. The lake was small but deep. It’d claimed more than its fair share of sunglasses and fish hooks over the years. There was nothing in it more[...]
Hello, darlings, Life has been so shitty lately, so I've kind of dropped off the face of the earth. We had to put our beloved dog, Indi, down on New Years Eve. So, without further adieu, I give you the Dogs of Horror. RIP Indi. I love you. Cujo (1983) Okay, so not only is this the kickoff to my favourite Friends ship (JoChel), but it stars one scary ass dog! I never watched the movie Beethoven the same The Lost Boys (1985) Nanook, the husky, is one of the cutest horror dogs around. He makes a kill shot by knocking a vamp into[...]
Oh, hello there, It's been a while since we had a good chat. Too long, if you ask me. I took some time off. My brain got a little twisted but I'm back. I spent this week thinking about what I wanted to chat about. The obvious would be Halloween. It is, after all, nearly here. So I started checking out cool Halloween movies that flew under the radar and googling weird Halloween traditions from around the globe but I just kept thinking about death. Not mine, mind you. No, not yours either. I'm thinking about theirs. **TRIGGER** Actual death descrip[...]
Hello, darlings! It's been far too longed since I've graced this graveyard. I had an unfortunate turn of events that knocked me off kilter for a while, but I'm back. And what better way to return to the crypt than to bring a touch of fresh meat with me? Though she's no stranger to the dark side, I'm still absolutely thrilled to have her grace our little corner of the woods. Welcome, Jessica! ^^That's Jessica Bayliss ^^ Let's get things going, shall we? What inspired you to write Broken Chords? BROKEN CHORDS was born because I had to pee in the m[...]
From a very young age, I've been obsessed with Indiana Jones (my dog's name is Indi!). Something about discovering ancient remains and disturbing the peace was so thrilling. I also loved a little film called George of the Jungle and vividly remember having my first real crush on a man...the ineffable (but extremely effable) Brendan Fraser. Imagine my delight when The Mummy came out a few years later. My leading man dredging around the dessert, discovering lost civilizations and awakening the slumbering Imhotep? I was in love. And still am. When I caught wind tha[...]
Hello, lovelies! I'm sitting here, sipping a little brew I whipped up in the cauldron (spearmint AND peppermint tea - I'm crazyAF), researching witches. I was originally going to take things back a few hundred years but I decided to keep this post a bit more current this time around. Growing up in a predominately Christian home, I was raised thinking witches were Halloween costumes and the stars of my favourite spooky movies (Hellllllo, Grand High Witch!). As I delved deeper into the bowels of the library, and then the glorio[...]
Hello, Dearies, How are you? How's life? Working on anything neat? Write any really awesome lines lately? Draw a cool picture? Show me. My brain needs some inspiration. I haven't written in weeks. So my apologies if this post is smeared in coppered flakes of rust. We've been discussing Urban Legends round the MS campfire. I've been digging into my city's online vaults for a tale or two, but there aren't any good ones. So this little tale comes from none other than the handsome, the fancy dancy, Mr. Jenna. "We're doing Urban Legends this month on the blo[...]
