    Rick,
    I was interested to watch the trailer, since I'm trying to get ideas for my own. Very impressive!

    Hi, Rick:

    What took you so long to show up here? And how/where did you find how to create the Crimespace Box of your covers? They didn't have it when I joined.

    Anyway, good to see you here...or anywhere.

    Hey, Rick - Your books sound great. I like supernatural books and have been wanting to try more real horror ones. Phil Rickman is probably my favorite of the lighter horror I've read. When I finally tried a Dean Koontz book, Odd Thomas, I thought it was fantastic for the first couple of chapters. Even before anything bad happened, he had freaked me out so much, I was too scared to keep reading. :) Now, THAT's a good horror writer. :) Good to see you here.

    I think I'm already on here - I get befuddled. I'll try to be a bit more active, was really snowed under for a bit, plus the bronchial infection from hell - but like the Phoenix, I rise again.

    Rick, IM looks crazy-interesting--I'll check it out. I hope you'll take a peek at my work too. I think Chalice's a blast, and hope you will as well. Sorry for the late reply; been traveling for business. Looking forward to lots of great chatter.
