Hi:
  Just thought I would share this link to The Evangeline Cobalt Daily. This on-line paper comes out twice daily. I always like to write the editorial.

 This week the main news is the devastation of this Hurricane Sandy. I like to share all the news I can and offer people a quick read on a lot of things.

I was a newspaper journalist for a number of years.

Meanwhile, I am trying to finish writing two books and am a little behind on both of them.

Haunted Houses

HAUNTED HOUSES

There is something about the weather, when it turns cooler, when it gets stormier and then fall and winter sets in. Oftentimes people like to celebrate the fall with Halloween activities in October and slightly before.
  This year, we thought we would get into this spirit and so I completed a book which I had been working on for some time.
I find the subject of Haunted Houses fascinating. One of the most famous is this one
The Winchester House

Owls are fascinating subjects

WE LOVE THE MYSTERIOUS OWLS OF NATURE

So many people find Owls fascinating and they have been of intense interest probably throughout time.

IF YOU LIKE HAUNTED STUFF

I have a book out just now about the horror of a haunted house. I thought it was a good idea, began to work on it some years ago, and then got the real desire to write it and did.

Fall is arriving now, and along with fall leaves, around here there are all kinds of pumpkins and things like that which appear on the porches, ours included.

Meanwhile, we love all things fall, and start thinking of hot cocoa in assorted mugs, and late nights of telling stories to each and all. This is a tradition in my family which dates way back. I can remember my Grandma chilling us to the bone as she told us stories which had probably been passed down in her own time. We would sometimes scream with fright and she would of course emphasize a special moment in her story by grabbing us while we screamed. We loved to play hide and seek in her rambling old house and she would come and find us.

So, I thought, why not bring out my own book about Haunted Houses and the thrill (sometimes horror) they can bring to an unwary visitor.

Today, on Amazon.com I have such a story.
