About Me
_______________________________________
I enjoy reading almost any type of book, but really enjoy writing a horror/mystery. I have written science fiction, children fantasy and popular fiction. I guarentee if you give my writing a chance that you will find it entertaining.

Some of my favorite authors are Anne Rice, Charles Dickens, C.S. Lewis, Gregory Maguire, Patricia Cornwell, Edgar Allen Poe and Robert Frost.

An accomplished writer, I am not, but with every book read my skills as an author grow. Some day, hopefully, they will increase to a point that someone would consider me accomplished, but until that day, I peck along on my keyboard enamored with writing.

Under The Veil Of Darkness

Robert Mourningstar

Shaken, stirred and a little on edge, a man chases the shadows of his past revealing unexpected results.


Sugar, maggots and dead bodies...

A seventeen-year old murder of a prostitute...

An estate rumored to be haunted...

What horrors are really in the grave?

A phone call from a reporter leads to inquires about the murder, and a newspaper claims that none of their reporters are investigating it. Historic events color the journey to uncover the mystery. A man's sanity is in question as Chase Manor stands as the ultimate symbol of horror as the crimes of years past come to life.

What do the authors on authonomy say?

“Dark and Gritty.” – Milo Saint

“An intriguing and well-told tale.” – Thorne Moore

“Leaves the reader begging for more.” – Sue MacKender

“This has the Southern tone and the writing penetrates.” – Katherine L. Holmes

This is interesting. - Robert. If time were a place, the your book would be a monument. - A time traveler. Confusion is the quest one takes to clarity. - The insane teacher. I don't really know what to say except it is interesting and different. view book

Chapter One Comments. The changes that I am suggesting are only because I believe that you are trying to sound more of the time and my changes are about the way that I think the speech patterns were used in the Bible. First paragraph, “co-worker” struck me as out of place. You might consider “d... view book

Interesting opening chapter, Francesca hit Duke and starts flirting with Drake. Rabbit stew, it sounds yummy. I liked the opening chapter, but found a few minor things. I listened to the first chapter, some parts were very smooth and others a little rough. I'm not sure if that is a language ba... view book

Great book. These are my initial six observations of things that "aren't wrong," but broke my read. 1) I was wearing a skirt (“that” or “,which”) I made myself. I’d favor “that”. 2) Had she not noticed that unique and interesting didn’t fly here at Homogenous High? (Sounds awkward to my ears... view book

I got your book in a form that I could listen to it. The opening for me was very rough and hard to get through (it might have been the style), but it did get smoother as it went on. All the references to music, I didn’t quite understand (as in the point or need for them), and they made it harder ... view book
