Mary Rajotte is a self-professed bibliophile and wordsmith who pens dark, atmospheric fiction & creepy tales that explore myth, dream and nightmare.
Her story Creepy Crawleys is included in Northern Haunts: 100 Terrifying New England Tales by Shroud Publishing while her story Like Flies to Honey is in the Winter 2010 Issue of Shroud Magazine.
Her piece "The Lockwood Collection" is forthcoming in The Scroll of Anubis anthology from Library of Horror Press.
Mary's eerie tales inspire in readers the urge to double-check the deepest, darkest closets, to peer anxiously under the creakiest of beds, and to always sleep with the lights on.
Mary is inspired by the drive & creativity of her grandmother, children's writer Bernadette Rajotte, composer of A Child's Christmas Prayer, and Young Hearts, which are a part of the National Library of Canada, and author of countless short stories, as well as Who Am I?: A Mother Goose Quiz Book (1978), which is part of the Toronto Library's Osborne Collection of Early Children's Books.
