Don Boivin will be our guest on the 29th!!!


Don Boivin, will be our guest on the 29th of this month with an excerpt of one of his spooky dark fiction stories...'The Mirror'. This man has many talents from being a singer song writer, to creating worlds of dark fantasy with some of the most amazing art work that I've seen...and he and his son do it all. I will be posting not only his interview, but some of the covers that he's created! Our last name will be pulled from his contest to go into the Halloween Hat, along with a drawing for one lucky winner that will get a box of their own Halloween goodies, and his autographed novel.
:
I still need one more name to go into the hat before the day of his interview, and I will be taking it from the post that started on the 14th on my website, and go through the 28th. That will put us at number 14, and then number 15 will be taken the next day. I will be adding excerpts from Beth Trissel, and Christie Silvers, along with a few morbid excerpts of my own. I want to save Don's excerpts for Halloween so we all have goose bumps closer to the Holiday!
:
So, be sure to leave a comment, if you want a chance to go into the Hat...you have until the 28th to get your name in! Lee Ann, was the lucky person and number 13 to go into the Halloween Hat...I am getting so excited...I will post a photo of the goodies once we have everything together, so everyone can see what we do for fun..LoL...I can't wait for you guy's to see what we are doing for Christmas! We are calling it the Christmas Grab, which we will be doing just like the Halloween Hat! Lot's of goodies will go in and all gift wraped...Two lucky winner's will have a ball opening up this package. ;)
:
Come and have some major fun with us!!!

My first review on my book, Damnation!


Reviewed by Yolanda Sfetsos:

And you thought your prom was a nightmare!

Kimberly dreams of terrible monsters she believes are real. Her parents know why and take steps to stop them. Still, blood is shed...lots of it.With a cover like this one, I just knew that I was stepping into some wicked and scary territory!

Kimberly is a teenager who suffers from horrible dreams about monsters. She also has terrible seizures that break her parents' heart. So, of course, they want to do anything they can to help and console her. But when she attends the prom and things take an unexpected turn, they have no choice but to do whatever it takes to help their daughter.

I really enjoyed this story. It kept me on the edge of my seat, trying to figure out what was just around the corner... because I knew it wouldn't be good. I felt sorry for Kimberly. The poor thing had no idea what was happening to her.

This is a creepy, creepy story that'll satisfy horror fans as well as anyone who likes to get a good scare just waiting for the monster to step out of the shadows! Loved it. And the end will definitely satisfy. :)

Short Stories of Twisted Tales

Short Stories of Twisted Tales, will be out within two weeks. The cover was created by; Kysha R. Mcbee....and I absolutely love. The photo's were taken from my private collection, that I took while playing in my spooky places...The spider I must say is the only thing that I did not get close enough to take the photo of..lol. She added that in the cover from another site, which will be in the cover of the book. I am so excited to have my second novel out and can't wait to get my copy of this one. We are now working on my none-paranormal romance "Uncertain Meanings" and as soon as it is ready and on the market, we will start on 'A Chance at Love', my first werewolf novel...but, I have since added to the pile, and have completed two other books with werewolves, and vampires. I have nine novels in all, and I am very ready to finish the four that wait for me to get back at the keys!

Hope you all have a great week, and by all means....Rock On!!!

I will post this on all my sites to give all my peeps several heads up. Here’s my website…http://www.robinreneeray.webs.com/, come sign up and rock out with us.

Dark Knight of the Skye

My first novel in print, and seventh novel that I completed. The first part of the book is all about the heat and very instant love between my characters. The order site will give you a few pages, ten or eleven, and leaves you at a point that even makes me think the book is leaning to a erotic...getting it on already?...type of feel...Two more pages would have taken the book into a twist of blood, fangs, and disbelief...The story is based on the deep connection of the two main characters, with me having to get them hot and heavy fast, so I could flip the plot into the lovely gore of brutal death and somewhat painful measures of making the peeps in my book have to work to survive, dealing with humor in the face of adversity. I will be adding a great excerpt to my website to show those who like the darker side of a paranormal romance, because I believe the free ten pages are just a bit boring...and I wrote it..lol. Truly...this novel was one of my favorites, and those who have read it has really like it, other than what I did to the two main characters right after those silly ten pages..lol. Of course, those readers would be my friends, family, and a few people that I borrowed from other people, and would say they like it to keep from hurting my feelings. *Wink* Feel freel to let me know what you think if you ever get the chance to read it, or any of my work. Good or bad! How does one get better unless they're told their mistake???

Okay, thats about it for now. Here is my new website: http://www.robinreneeray.webs.com/, would love to see you there, and would really flip to have you join as a member. I will be having some pretty cool contest throughout the year, making the Holidays my best ones; Halloween being the one I cannot wait for!!!

Have a great day and by all means...Rock On!!!
