\"creepycrawleys_coversmall\"<\/a>Halloween is one of my favourite times of the year and when I celebrate, you get to reap the rewards – that’s just how I roll!<\/p>\n

In honour of Halloween, and as part of All Hallows Read<\/strong>, I’m giving away free copies of my very first published tale – CREEPY CRAWLEYS<\/a>!<\/p>\n

WAIT…WHAT’S ALL HALLOWS READ?!<\/strong>
\nAwesome Author Extraordinaire Neil Gaiman started the All Hallows Read<\/a> movement in 2010 as a way to promote reading and encourage people to give someone a scary book for Halloween.<\/p>\n

It’s that simple!<\/p>\n

ABOUT CREEPY CRAWLEYS<\/strong>
\nThis was my first accepted story<\/a>, published in 2010 by Shroud Publishing in Northern Haunts: 100 Terrifying New England Tales<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The story is based on a strange old superstition I read about putting bugs in pats of butter to ward off infection. I know, right? Strange, creepy and a little gross, but I used that as my inspiration and wrote a little tale about the couple who move next door to people who have adopted this superstition into their lives.<\/p>\n

EXTRA GOODIES<\/strong>
\nWhen the story first came out, I made a mini book trailer for it, and just last year, I did a Booktrack<\/a> for it, which adds music & sound effects to the story and allows you to read along.
