I liked reading fairy tales growing up, like Rapunzel and the like. I also liked reading spooky books like Goosebumps and sci-fi like Animorphs. And Edgar Allan Poe. I've always been drawn to his works.
I've never actually emailed an author before you, Sharon. I always thought that they didn't have the time. But I'm glad that me emailing you was a lifeline. If the prize is a copy of Ravenous, don't enter me in the contest, since I already have one and I don't want to take the chance away from someone else who doesn't have one.
