Here at Bloody Bookish we believe writers are real life superheros.

And horror writers? Another breed entirely.

Our Horror Writer Superhero Spotlight shines the spotlight squarely on the twisted minds who bring you dark literature in all its dastardly forms.

Today’s spotlight is on Kristy Carey

Q: What would be a fitting name for your sidekick?

More about Kristy!
Have you ever seen or read ‘The Last Unicorn’?  If not, you really should.  Anywho… In it, Schmendric the Magician uses magic to protect a unicorn.  However no magician is strong enough to actually cast a spell on a creature as magical as a Unicorn… So, instead he closes his eyes and calls out ‘Magic, do as you will’.  In doing this, he uses more magic then most magicians could ever hope to have… The secret, was to let the magic work on its own.

Why am I telling you this?  Its how I write… I sit down and have… A line or a phrase flash over me, and the story starts.  The story, does as it wills.  This is why my stories thus far consists of… Ulfur Drykkur, my own version of a Werewolf story [unfinished]. I Told You We Should Have Hijacked the Hostess Truck, a teen gay romance [unfinished].  The Quintessence of Time, a story of time travel [unedited]. And my yet to be titled Fantasy story [unfinished]. I’m sure you an see the… Barrage of stories that write through me.
