MY BIO:
I am a mother, wife and attorney from Long Island, New York. I love being a wife and mother...but an attorney?What was I thinking going to law school?!? It truly is my one regret. I wish I'd spent all that time and energy writing books instead of legal briefs and memoranda of law.
However, I've discovered that it's never too late to pursue your life's passion and true calling. I've been having fun making up for lost time. So far, I've written four full-length novels in just over a year. My first book, "Mother," is a young adult novel about a volatile mother/daughter relationship. It's an emotional roller-coaster ride that explores the self-destructive behaviors of a dysfunctional single-parent family.
My "Hillary" trilogy is a lot darker. It is a deeply disturbing series that contains intense scenes of graphic violence, gore and subject matter that many find offensive. Please heed my warnings!
I've since written two short stories, "Christmas Shopping," and "Crazy Old Lady," and a novella entitled "Omerion." After a busy and relatively unproductive past year, I am ready to take my writing to the next level.
I have many projects lined up, including a chick-lit (nope, that's not a typo--it's been a REAL challenge!), a young adult novel, more gory short stories and a horror novel called "Expulsion" about an abortion gone wrong.
No matter what the genre, I think it's important for everything I write to leave a lasting impression upon readers. I strive to create memorable characters combined with deep and thought-provoking storylines.
But mostly, I have to admit, I really enjoy horrifying people. I want to shock and scare them and put all sorts of sick, twisted images in their minds. I want to evoke strong feelings of sadness, hatred, terror, disgust and repulsion. Once in a while, I might even bring a smile to someone's face. Mostly, though, I just prefer to horrify people. And I think I do a pretty good job at it if I dare say so myself.
If you've ever considered writing a book then I urge you to do so, without fear of failure, without fear of what others may think, without any fears whatsoever except the fear of not fulfilling your goals. Just do it. Live your dreams and don't let anyone ever hold you back.
Now go. While you still can.... :)

I am pleased to present a video book trailer for Hillary: Tail of the Dog, created by the very talented sisters, Yancy Lopez and Sofia Isabella Lopez.
“It is a place of unrelenting misery and interminable pain and sorrow. It a place of lost hope, a dismal abyss where remorse is candy, and tears, nectar, to unforgiving monstrosities with endless appetites.”
In life, Samuel Rylandt was a serial rapist and murderer who callously committed heinous acts with no regard whatsoever for the women he victimized. In death, however, he will suffer the consequences of his depravity as his soul undergoes a startling corporeal transformation and he is thrown to Hell (Omerion) to complete three horrific phases of moral reconstruction.
Samuel’s notions of the underworld are broadened as he learns that “Hell” is actually an elaborate civilization where the damned agonizingly learn the virtues that evaded them in life.
Wishing you all a very happy, healthy, fun and fantastic new year!
All Jilly Carson wanted to do was get a little Christmas shopping done with her best friend, Peyton. But when Peyton can’t meet her at the mall, Jilly finds herself feeling anxious and alone as her mother’s cautionary words echo in her head:
“Don’t talk to strangers. Don’t put yourself in that position again. You remember what happened last time....”
When a tall, blonde-haired stranger begins to stalk her, Jilly does everything she can to avoid him.
Feeling scared and vulnerable, she finally decides to leave the mall.
But the blonde-haired man won’t let her flee quite so easily….
'Twas a few nights before Christmas
And all through the mall,
The man followed Jilly
Lean, blonde and tall.
Jilly tried to evade him
She withdrew from his sight,
But the blonde man was persistent
Stalking her that fateful night.
He followed Jilly to her car
The poor teen was so afraid,
She'd tried her best to be careful
Now a price had to be paid.
The unthinkable then happened
As blood spilled everywhere,
Christmas shopping can be murder
So you had better beware.
Always make the best choices
You know wrong from right,
Merry Christmas to all
And to all a good fright....
My husband always says that I've "left my mark on the world." I don't know about that, but it certainly thrills me to know that I have made people cringe and wince and feel a full range of emotions from sorrow, fear and hatred to sympathy and even a bit of joy. I strive to write novels infused with valuable life lessons. I enjoy delving into the human (and sometimes inhuman) mind and portraying the many complexities therein.
So am I awesome? It's debatable...but one thing is certain: I am having the time of my life!
I'm thankful...
...that my family members are healthy...
...that I'm healthy too... :-)
...that we have everything that we need in life...
...that our problems are never insurmountable...
...that I have friends I can depend on...
...that I can pursue my dreams...
...that I can share my work with others...
...that I live in America, the land of opportunity...
...that I am surrounded by nature's beauty...
...that I am alive....
