MY REVIEW

After reading Death of the Body, I was already a fan of Rick's work. I was intrigued to read his first book, Facade of Shadows, which he wrote while he was in high school. This book contains Rick's dark writing style which I have grown to love.. and vampires. Add some Egyptian Gods to the mix and you have an epic story. The elements of romance add a nice touch to the story, along with Rick's plot twists, this is an amazing read. Rick's stories always suck me in from page one, and this was no exception. I would recommend this book to anyone, young and old.

I've often been accused of having done more in my life than the average person my age but if I were completely honest, I'd have to tell you my secret: I'm really 392.

So after all this time, I'm a pretty crappy writer.

I have two books published and a bunch half written (when you have eternity, where's the reason to rush?). I've been favorably reviewed by horror greats like Nancy Kilpatrick, and my how-to-write-horror articles have been quoted in scholarly (aka community college freshmen's) papers.

I enjoy the occasional Bloody Mary, although a Bloody Kathy or Susan will suffice.

Mostly, I just try to keep a low profile so people don't figure out who I REALLY am.
