I love Halloween. You get to dress up in costumes and pig out on candy. A lucky bunch get to go to parties or carnavels. Lot's of fun there. another wonderful t5hing about Halloween is the ghost stories and scary movies. Oh yeah. I'm lovin' those.
My most recent release is a short story titled, The Curse of the Amber Tomb, in the 2012 Fall/Paranormal Collection by Victory Tales Press. Some very talented writers have some wonderful stories in the collection.

Thanks for the post, Sarah. I know most of the authors in the anthology, so will check on it.
ReplyDeleteHi, Sarah--I've never been a big fan of Halloween--but my kids loved it, so that's good. I just didn't grow up getting to do Halloween stuff.
ReplyDeleteBut boy, I do love the candy, too--and your recipe is like "Super Duper Gorp!" The popcorn surely makes it even better.
You're right--the anthology is by some very talented authors--including you, my dear.
Good luck!
