#HorrorWritersChat Memories hold the most emotional weight in my current story. They're held inside, but seep out during dreams. They intertwine with the beige house and are creating something new.

It had been fifteen years since the fire, but I recognized it instantly My dad's Zippo Waiting for me in the grass, right between my parents' graves I always loved playing with it when they weren't looking But it can't be here I buried it in the backyard, fifteen years ago #HorrorWritersChat

The home. Or at least the idea of a personal space, both physical and emotional. It's a story about a mysterious stranger who invades a life. Letting her into the home, your home, was a mistake that will slowly eat away at you until there is nothing left #HorrorWritersChat

The lit house. He kept every light burning for three years so no one he loved would come home to dark. It reads as devotion until you learn what devotion let him justify. Once that meaning flips, love and control turn out to have the same shape. #horrorwriterschat

I write mostly supernatural horror though my most recent (coming out in an anthology next month) is not. I love building that quiet unease that ends in a bang. I don't have a comfort toy or object that I'd hate seeing turned horrific. As long as the animal survives, I'm good. #horrorwriterschat
