Hometown:

About Me:
Rick R. Reed's suspense/horror fiction has been referred to as “a harrowing ride through cutting-edge psychological horror” (Douglas Clegg, author of The Attraction), having “a knack for presenting the gruesome lower depths of a soul” (New City) and “brutally honest” (Fangoria). His most recent books include Orientation, a reincarnation love story: High Risk, a dark thriller about a sexually addicted housewife and the psychotic stranger she hooks up with: IM, a thriller about a serial killer preying on gay men through internet hook-up sites; In the Blood, a tragic vampire love story, and Deadly Vision, about a small town single mom who begins having psychic visions into a series of murders of teenage girls in her small Ohio River town. Other published work includes A Face Without a Heart, a modern-day version of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray, which Fangoria magazine praised as “a rarity...a really well done update that's as good as its source material.” Published in Dell's acclaimed Abyss horror line, Obsessed and Penance together sold more than 80,000 copies. All three novels were re-released in 2006. Rick's short fiction has appeared in numerous anthologies and magazines. A collection of his short horror fiction, Twisted: Tales of Obsession and Terror was published in 2006. Rick lives in Seattle with his partner and is at work on a new novel.

Too many movies to list (I really love suspense and horror, though).

I don't really watch a lot of TV, but Judge Judy is a guilty pleasure.

Crime: Miami Versus Chicago

When I moved to Miami a year ago from Chicago, I was a little disheartened, because Chicago had been my muse and my inspiration for so much of my fiction, much of it centered on crime. Chicago can be a wonderful place, but it can also be fickle, mean, cold, and moody, much like the Great Lake that lies along its eastern border. With a history of serial killers like John Wayne Gacy, Larry Eyler, and nearby Milwaukee’s Jeffrey Dahmer, Chicago must have had something to nurture and cause such tw

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.

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.

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.

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.

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