Moments; that's all we really have in this world, isn't it? Little Dead Things is a single author collection of 41 stories, flash, and drabbles that tell the tales of the most dire, dreadful, or impactful moment for each character. Perfect for commuters, lunch hours, or waiting at an appointment, these tales will give you much more than a distraction, for the hours that follow just may lead to the contemplation of your very existence. Do you have a moment for Little Dead Things?

1) As a female horror writer what do you bring to the table in terms of what of you write?


I think this is a tough question for any horror writer, but I believe I bring a nurturing prospective – that is – for the horror itself. Much like a child needs guidance and reassurance I feel the horror of any good story needs the same.

2) Do you think female authors are underrepresented in the horror genre?
I believe there once was a time that was true, but with advancements in opportunities for women such as exposure through events like the Women in Horror Month and self-publication this is no longer quite the case.

3) Tell us about your book(s)

My most recent release is a collection of short stories and drabbles titled: Little Dead Things. Here is the blurb: Moments; that's all we really have in this world, isn't it? Little Dead Things is a single author collection of 41 stories, flash, and drabbles that tell the tales of the most dire, dreadful, or impactful moment for each character. Perfect for commuters, lunch hours, or waiting at an appointment, these tales will give you much more than a distraction, for the hours that follow, just may lead to the contemplation of your very existence. Do you have a moment for Little Dead Things?

4) Why is horror writing important to you?

Horror writing is important to me because it explores our deepest, primal emotions. People from all religions, ethnicities, sexes, and walks of life experience fear. Though the levels may vary from person to person, the experience is shared among all. Writing horror is important to me because I have the pleasure of sharing this universal emotion.
5) Is the future of horror female?

I believe the future of horror will involve many more women than it has in the past, from novelists, and poets, to song writers, and film, women will take positions of power in this creative genre. Do I believe the future is female friendly? Absolutely. Do I believe women will take over? I hope not. I believe there is an equal place in this genre for all and I hope that is what the future holds for us all.​
