Just turned 40, living in the Chicago area since 1986 and into writing and photography. I'm a voracious reader and open to most genres. As an author, I've published "Carriage Returns" (poetry from 1988-2008) and "Romantic Confessions" (poetry and haiku 2008-2009). In 2010, I started exploring e-books/e-readers and decided to publish a book in serial format. Dark Bites is a four-part horror e-book series. Four women... four tales of death and spine-tingling horror. Explore new twists on classic horror stories (zombies, werewolves, vampires and ghosts). These are the women of Dark Bites. Order a copy of Dark Bites: Four Tales of Horror now! This collection contains an exclusive bonus short story/sequel to Windy City of the Dead called Dark Bites: Part 5 - As the Crow Flies.

This ebook is dedicated to one of my best friends/muses Carlie Haas. She graciously granted me permission to use one of her original art pieces Crimson Girl
(Paint, Ink - Feb. 2012) as this ebook’s cover. Carlie is a dear, lovely friend whose friendship and art inspire me to take chances and delve deeper into the shadows.
This book is also dedicated to the late, great H.P. Lovecraft who inspired me in college to write the original draft of this story so many moons ago. One of the few surviving stories from those early days in my writing journey, it always called to me like Cthulu. I’m grateful for his inspiration and humbled by his mastery of the word.
And of course, great love and affection to my partner Nikole. Without her attention to detail, proofreading, and constant encouragement to better my work I would be lost.
