I have a special treat for you today. Have a seat, and light your candle as I share the inner workings of a twisted mind – or three.
By special invitation from E. A. Nash, I have been included in a most horrifically contagious event. It is the “My Writing Process” blog tour. (You can find the original here: My Writing Process blog tour.) Hop on board and follow the minds of the industries most morbid, creative, and inspirational authors.
As part of the tour, I have been given four questions to answer, and hopefully enlighten you fine people with the inner-workings of my dark mind; so here we go!
Question 1. What am I working on?
Answer: After a lengthy hiatus, I have returned to the Dangerous Minds trilogy. Book Two is well underway, and will hopefully come to fruition by the end of this year. I have also had success with some current short stories. The most recent being The Fun House, in the horror anthology Death Awaits: A Scarlett Nightmare, published by Harren Press. You can find them here: Harren Press.
Question 2. How does my work differ from others of its genre?
Answer: Well, tall order there. I would have to say it is different in the fact I am not really predictable. From the many reviews I have received from numerous works of mine, the common recurring statements reflect the surprise the readers felt at the end. I try to keep it interesting, and not easy to guess, while giving a satisfying ending.
Question 3. Why do I write what I do?
Answer: I’d like to say, because having people act out my fantasies would lead to criminal charges… However I deeply believe writing in any genre is therapeutic – whether professional or not. I enjoy exploring the psyche of the deranged, and morbidly exquisite characters that make themselves known to me. It is a lot safer than talking to real criminally insane individuals.
Question 4. How does my writing process work?
Answer: For me I need to cut myself off from friends, family, phone calls and internet. I close my eyes and picture the people, places, and events about to take place, and then I allow that vision to transfer to the screen of my laptop. My concentration and muse are fleeting, so distractions can cause delays. During a long work of fiction, I only allow myself to read one page back, This keeps me from editing along the way – another distraction. As a reward for finishing a chapter, I print it. It may not seem like much, but as each one prints, I can physically see my story grow, and that is a big motivator for me. Regardless of the length of work, I always let it sit and cool for a while before I start editing. In this regard, distractions help give the distance needed to cut away the junk; and then, start a new one.
Well friends, I hope post this has given you some tidbit of knowledge about myself you didn’t know before. Be well, stay safe, and embrace the darkness!
Continuing the tour will be Blaze McRob – a multi-talented writer with a heart of gold – not to be confused with the many other body parts he collects. Here is more about Blaze:
Blaze McRob has penned many titles under different names. It is time for him to come out and play as Blaze.
In addition to inclusions in numerous anthologies, he has written many novels, short stories, flash fiction pieces, and even poetry. Most of his offerings are Dark. However dark they might be, there is always an underlying message contained within.
Join him as he explores the Dark side. You know you want to. blazemcrob.com
And last but certainly not least, meet the woman of a thousand minds, Emmy Z. Madrigal. Here is more about her:
Emmy Z. Madrigal is the author of the musical romance series, Sweet Dreams and the artist spin-off Anime Girl. Her love of music and the Jazz masters of the Big Band Era have always inspired her life and her writing. She also writes horror and vampire fiction under the name Emerian Rich.

I hope all of you who celebrated the holidays had a wonderful and safe time.
My 3000 km move and the holidays are finally over, and I can get back to doing what I love most - writing! With many projects in the works for my publishing company - <a href="http://www.scarlett-river-press.ca">Scarlett River Press</a> - and the second installment of The Nightmare Project underway, things are busy here to say the least.
I am overjoyed at the support my readers and writers have shown over the past few months when a lot of things went haywire for me. Thank you to all who have shown your support, from your kind words to your patience. I can't express enough what that has meant to me.

<div style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; padding-left: 2em;">
<div style="margin-left: 0.5em;">
<br /><br />As I read this novel, I found myself becoming more and more engrossed with each turn of the page. As an adult I didn't know if this was a book I would really "get into," but the writing style of Charles Day had me hooked from page one. Flashes of my own childhood Halloweens, bullies, creepy old folk and teenage awkwardness slithered out of the deepest regions of my memories and came back to haunt, scare and entertain me.<br />The main character, Nick, is a likable young fellow still well endowed with childlike imagination, and aspirations. With his many teenage dramas, he manages to mature and evolve by the end of the story - without losing his dreams.<br />Every time I thought I knew where the story was leading, I found myself in awe of the many twists and turns, never leading to where I thought.<br />Legend of the Pumpkin Thief took me on an emotional journey of fear, anxiety, curiosity and hope that connected me with many of the book's characters.<br />I highly recommend this book to adults and YA alike!<br /><br />Jo-Anne Russell<br />Author of The Nightmare Project<div style="clear: both; padding-top: 10px; width: 1051px;">

Posted by Jo-Anne Russell on Sunday, October 16, 2011<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> Under: Short Stories / Anthologies<br />
Greetings and welcome back.<br />
Has this month been busy for you? It sure has for me. I welcomed my first grandchild into our family,<br />
a boy named Malakai. Mom, baby and dad are all doing well. He was born on October 11th 2011 weighing 7 pounds, 19 inches long.<br />
I also have a huge workload with multiple deadlines for the end of this month. My newest horror flash has been published in the anthology “In A Dark Place,” by Brazen Snake Books. The story is called “The Promised Land,” and it is my first story of historical fiction and zombies. You can find the link in my book store.<br />
With my favorite holiday just around the corner I am gearing up by telling my children scary stories, decorating and watching all my favorite horror flicks.<br />

Hello, and welcome back.<br />
I have been busy working hard on spreading the news of The Nightmare Project, and working on other shorter pieces for your entertainment.<br />
<br />
My new flash called The Letter, will appear in the anthology "Behind Locked Doors,`` and is edited by Jessica A. Weiss.<br />
I also have six poems that will appear in the Poems from the Dark Side Volume Two, anthology.<br />
<br />
There is much more in the works as I have other short fiction and non-fiction up for consideration. I am also busy working on Book 2 of the Dangerous Minds Trilogy.<br />
<br />
Links to all anthologies with cover images will be available at my store and images pages soon, and publication dates will be posted as soon as I know them. ;)<br />
<br />
Until then, keep reading and embrace the darkness!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08360075461154103573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8985519578623618190.post-67710448542356129482012-02-13T13:57:00.000-08:002012-02-13T13:57:01.255-08:00Monster Gallery<br />

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><span class="yui-non">I have decided to release my debut novel The Nightmare Project as an eBook first. The reasons for my decision are many.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><span class="yui-non">First off, eBook reading has grown by leaps and bounds. The available platforms and multiple formats make it easy for consumers to enjoy reading on the go. You don't lose your pages and you can usually read the same book across many devices at the same time without losing your place in the story.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><span class="yui-non">With video games and electronics as the primary source of entertainment for today's youths, eReading has enabled many to enjoy the love of reading who otherwise may not have started reading, or read as many books.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><br />
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><span class="yui-non">I also appreciate the creative freedoms allowed to me by publishing an eBook. I decide what stays and what goes, the length, the style and the cover. Because of the company I have chosen to go with, (SmashWords), my novel will be available at a multitude of online retailers, and in a vast variety of formats. Even if you do not have an eReader device, you will still be able to enjoy my eBook by using one of the many free computer applications usually provided by the sites where you can buy eBooks.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><span class="yui-non"><span class="yui-non">I will be compiling a list of some of the most popular eReading devices and the eBook formats that they use to help you troubleshoot in case you do not know what format would best suit you. The release date will be announced soon.<br />
<span class="yui-non">Keep reading, and visit again soon! </span> </span> For more information check out my website at<a href="http://jo-annerussell.ca/">: www.jo-annerussell.ca</a></span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08360075461154103573noreply@blogger.com0
