Thanks. Ill do more research. I just have to have an audience for what Im writing otherwise it would be a waste of effort. Im a unique guy so that can be hard for me.
There we go. See Im new to reading novels so, I had no idea that most horror novels used this tactic. I actually wanted to write horror novels now I don't know if I can go that in depth into characters so I may have to figure something else out.

I'll give one good example of what I'm talking about. Stephen King goes deep into the minds and lives of the...
Let me add that it also had an occult vibe to it and it was cool and taught me new things I found interesting. If I can learn interesting stuff from a novel and satisfy my curious mind then that's always a plus.

It was during the plandemic lockdowns. People were either stuck in their homes trying to find something productive to do or stuck in their homes wasting time. I wrote a short novella within a two week span. It wasn't a work that I am proud of, although I can't beat myself up about it too bad...
The book may not be most people on here's cup of tea. Most people here probably aren't interested in african american urban crime fiction, but I am curious to know if anyone has checked it out, even read it completely and what their personal opinions are on the book. Positive or negative. I'd...
