    Publisher’s Synopsis: Casey didn’t believe in monsters until they stole his sister. Shortly after teenage newcomer Casey Wilde arrives in the haunted town of Whistlebrass, Vermont, his little sister disappears.

    Briar Lee Mitchell

    “Write what you know” is the classic advice given to authors. Briar Lee Mitchell definitely seems to adhere to that maxim. The polar setting for Briar’s WALKING ON MARS serial echoes her experiences in the world’s coldest climate as a guest at McMurdo Base in Antarctica. Warming up on Andros Island in the Bahamas helped her set the scene for DARK LIGHTS. She and her dive partners were offered $100 rewards from the Navy base there should any of them find a live torpedo out on the reefs. The BIG ASS SHARK author recently donned a wet suit to climb into a shark cage in the northern Pacific. Then Briar and her stalwart search and rescue dog, Thor, patrolled the Georgia woods and succeeded in helping the police locate and recover a missing person. The experience will no doubt fuel her future fiction. When not engaging in her edgier pastimes, Briar creates digital paintings for a diverse list of clients ranging from Warner Bros. to the U. S. Air Force. Her work has been featured in films, video games, and exhibited at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. She also spends a lot of time floating in her Florida pool watching clouds drift by and imagining mayhem.

      I’ve loved the thrill of horror books since I was a kid! I read every Goosebumps book and every ghost story that I could get my hands on. Now, as an adult, I still try to get my hands on every horror book I can! I love books that give me a chill!

      I really get into my reading. I love the way I feel while I’m reading horror stories and the fact that it lingers long after I put the book down. I’m weird like that. LOL Thanks for the chance to win!!

      I started reading horror when I was 12 years old. I like reading about people battling evil, whether they stand a chance of winning or not.

      I love to read horror books because sometimes I’m really in the mood to be scared and usually horror books greatly frighten me. Not to mention, I appreciate how suspenseful most of them are, too.
