Authors Kerry Schafer and Nola Nash discuss the shadings of fear in the horror genre and how they relate to Nash's perfect for Halloween Crescent City series in this animated author to author chat. The conclusion? Definitely more Edgar Allan Poe than Stephen King.

Marie Watts has had a long career, first with the equal employment opportunity commission, investigating employment discrimination; moving to the private sector as a human resource manager and director. Marie currently runs her own show, focusing on encouraging diversity and preventing discrimination.

And she writes. The first to books in her Alice Arden trilogy, The Cause Lives and Only a Pawn, take us behind the scenes where politics and ambition often dictate policy and priorities. We discussed her metamorphosis from professional to storyteller, her "pantser" approach to story construction and how she puts puzzle pieces from many personalities into the composites that become her cast.

Author Judith Starkston stops by Second Sunday Books to discuss her new book, Of Kings and Griffins.

“Master storyteller…fast-paced and compelling” -Anna Castle, award-winning author of Murder by Misrule

A vicious king, vengeful griffins, and a scheming goddess. Can Tesha outmaneuver foes from these three different worlds?

For Tesha, priestess and queen, happiness is a world she can control, made up of her family and the fractious kingdom she and her husband rule within the Great King’s empire. But now the Great King is dead, and his untried son plots against them. Tesha fights back with forbidden sorcery and savvy. In yet another blow, the griffin king lures Daniti, Tesha’s magical blind sister, into a deadly crisis that Daniti alone can avert.

As danger ensnares everyone Tesha loves, her goddess offers a way out. But can Tesha trust this offer of divine assistance or is it a trap—one that would lead to an unstoppable bloodbath?

Escape into this award-winning epic fantasy series, inspired by the historical Hittite empire and its most extraordinary queen.

Tamara Thorne's first novel was published in 1991. Since then she has written many more, including international bestsellers Haunted, Bad Things, Moonfall, and The Sorority. Tamara's interest in writing is lifelong, as is her fascination with the paranormal, occult, mythology and folklore. She's been an avid ghost story collector and writer all her life.

Tamara's novels range from straight-out ghost stories to tales of witchcraft, conspiracies, UFOs, elemental forces, and vampires. No matter what topic she chooses, chances are you'll find a ghost or two lurking in the background.

Today, she and her frequent collaborator, Alistair Cross, share their worlds and continue to write about ghosts and other mysterious forces. Whether collaborating or writing solo, there is no shortage of humor, sex, blood, and spookiness.

Tamara also conducts real-life investigations of anomalous phenomena and has seen a number of odd things over the last twenty years. As an open-minded skeptic, she's spoken to many paranormal groups and has appeared on the television show, Ghost Adventures. Most recently, she and Alistair Cross went on a five-day investigation to an allegedly haunted cabin in California's Gold Country - an adventure that inspired The Cliffhouse Haunting. She has also been featured on many radio programs and in various newspapers on the topics of haunted places and local lore. A journalist by training, she occasionally writes about ghosts and hauntings for a syndicate of southern California newspapers, but her first love is, and has always been, telling ghost stories to make people scream. . . and laugh.

Tamara and Alistair co-host Thorne & Cross: Haunted Nights LIVE! every Thursday night on Blog Talk Radio.
