On Tuesday I posed this question on HJ’s Facebook page: Here’s what I want to know: who thinks (a) shopping on Black Friday is one of the most exhilarating days of the year and already has their game plan in place and alarm set, or (b) thinks shopping on BlackContinue Reading
He probably would prefer I didn’t, but I have to thank paranormal pop culture expert and journalist Aaron Sagers (whose work can be found on Pop Matters and who founded Paranormal Pop Culture) for making this interview with Kris Williams of Ghost Hunters happen.

If you want to (and you know some of you out there will), it’s more possible now than ever before for you and your pet –heck, your whole family– to wear matching or coordinating costumes for Halloween. I realized this after I saw this Cat in the Hat Pet Halloween costume forContinue Reading

I’m fairly certain both Nathan from A State of Mind and Dinell from the Weekly Spectre have sent me Twibe invites on Twitter at one time or another. However, as I sometimes (most times) am, I can be a bit slow. I didn’t understand Twibes or how it all worked.Continue Reading
Author Joyce Lavene (of the writing team Joyce and Jim Lavene, who I recently interviewed about their newest release from Berkley, A Timely Vision) surprised me by saying she’d like to interview me on her blog, The Romance of Mystery. Say what? Really? Cool! She asked some fun questions, andContinue Reading
Yesterday the Top 10 Blog included @HauntJaunts in its list of Top 10 Twitter People of the Day. I didn’t know that, though, until @JaneCys sent me a congratulatory Tweet with a link to the post.
