My second kids book with Cemetery Gates Media, and the second in the Haunted Holidays series, is out now! A Haunted Holiday sees Hazel overwhelmed by a holiday party, escaping to the outdoors. She finds an old friend and trades ghost stories with her, and receives her own spooky holiday surprise! Featuring a return of The Thing and Pet Spider, too. Here’s a link, tell your friends!

It’s official, my second kids book with Cemetery Gates Media is out on November 12th, and I cannot wait for you to read it! This one is a little different than A Cemetery Stroll, a little darker but still perfect for the little ones in your life who need a spooky read. Honestly, between the cold weather and the longer nights, the holiday season has always felt more like spooky season for me than October. In Texas/Oklahoma, you don’t get dead leaves wind chilly winds until then anyway. So, a horror holiday for kids in the style of M.R. James is perfect.

So, that’s Halloween and Christmas down. The next big season for kids is summer break. Maybe Hazel encounters some cryptids at a campsite? Who knows!

And reviewers! Shoot Cemetery Gates Media an email for ARCs, reviews are crucial!
